Hi, we live in the okanagan, BC. Getting allot of ash in our pool due to wildfires. Clean the pool and next day there is black sediment on bottom of pool. Chemistry has been near perfect, had to lower ph that’s about it, pool is crystal clear, just the black sediment keeps coming back. Seem to...

Ok I've added my signature. That was hard, lol. I'll get the other information in daylight hours. I'm back. I re did my homework and I have not added enough stabilizer. 11 700 gallons = 44289 litres. Using HTH stabilizer (walmart) says to add 250 gr per 10 000 litres. I only added 300 gr for 11...

I was wondering about the stabilizer. I added the recommended amount for my pool in July and my CYA registered zero. I added another full amount 9 days ago (late Sept) to balance my water before closing the pool for the winter and it is still registering zero. I used a sock and put it in the...

Thanks. We did get it pretty much level and used manufactured fines to bring up the low side and the holes. That stuff is incredible!

Can I use sand to level it all out? Some spots will have an inch or so and other spots will have none. Does this work? I am also putting down a Rhino pad so was going to skip the sand but I can get some if this will work.

Hello. I'm installing a 21' steel wall pool. My yard is slightly slanted so one side needs 18" dug out to meet the lowest point on the other side, My question is, how level does my ground need to be? I've reached compacted clay and after 3 days of raking and rototilling I cannot get any further...

Ok, Thank you. I'll try the teflon tape for now.

Hello. Hoping someone can help me here. The air release valve on my Krystal Clear filter pump cracked yesterday. It's slightly cracked in a circle formation. I tried filling it with hot glue but it still leaks. I think I need to know what kind of plastic this is made of so I know what to seal it...

Thank you for all the reply's. I am going to try ketchup in my hair, I read that a few other places also. If that doesn't work I will try something from a salon. I tried washing my hair with baking soda and rinsed with apple cider vinegar and that helped a bit, but not enough. Thanks for the...

Holy...that was a fast reply, Thanks. I didn't add anything with copper so it's the SWG. Why do they have copper bars? I will disconnect copper bars and start draining some water, Thanks again. This site is awsome!

New to SWG this year. I'm following the information I have found on this site and my pool is mostly good. There is so much information on this site that I cannot find what I'm looking for. I seem to have a small problem with what I think is pollen collecting on the bottom of the pool. I keep...
