Ok, held at 10, so don’t think it’s ammonia. Im going to clean filters out and test again this week. I just opened two weeks ago and I like to take it slow and steady on balancing. Got my ph in ck along with the CH and TA. Next is dedicating some time to my stabilizer.

Temp is at 60. Water is clear, no growth, but tons of pollen here in Maryland.

i know, not a popular choice in here, but I don’t mind using it at the beginning of the season or out on vacation. Anyway, I have an inline chlorinator and on max right now but it does not seem to be putting any CL in. It’s a Jandy and uses Tri-Chlor pucks. The pucks are dissolving but no...

Not too clean with a mesh cover. Leaves get under there and stuff for me. Water is not too bad but have to keep chlorine up since degrading leaves eat it up.

I have a mesh cover and need to drain water every now and then. Once a month I put 3/4 of a gallon of liquid chlorine, aka bleach, and mix with a submersible pump for a few hours. I’m in Maryland. I don’t put any other chemicals in though.

Thanks everyone, my free form plaster pool is about 20x40 so now time to find a decent tarp.

Hello all, I was talking to a neighbor who also had a mesh cover and said she had no leaves and opened with little cleaning at opening of her pool. When I asked how, she said she had a tarp with bag weights over her mesh cover. Anyone else have luck with this?

Hello all, any one have luck with getting this stuff off coping tile?

Hey everyone, I’m looking to get a back up VS motor and pump combo. I would like to get one that all I have to do is plug and play from the old one. Any recommended places?
