    Just Opened and...

    Just tested CYA and filled entire view tube with dot still completely visible. I was concerned about increasing CYA with the constant backwashing, should I be concerned with that at this stage or is it better to get it increased? Not sure how much I should be using, but since Tuesday I have...

    Just Opened and...

    Thanks for the quick reply. I was hoping I was on the right track. When I uncovered Tuesday night it was really really dark green (maybe brownish in spots). Been keeping CL levels high and brushing, shallow end is no longer green, deep end still is. Water is very cloudy. At mid-day my test...

    New liner and new fill

    I just had a new liner put in on Friday which means a whole new fill. We had 29,000 gallons trucked in and topped the rest off via garden hose from our well. Testing today showed essentially no FC, pH of 7.5 and no CYA (may not have let the sample reach room temperature fully though). All I...
