Checked my numbers this evening. TA had moved down slightly to 140, PH really came in well to 7.4 and TC up to 1.5. Ran the pool calc and added 1/2 gal bleach and 3 lbs of stabilizer after a good vac and backflush. Real interested to see what tomorrows numbers look like.

BR...Yeah, I thought that was backwards even as I was typing it. I added about 3/4 of a gal of MA as that was all I had. The pool calc said to add 72 oz. I have not stocked in my supplies yet, so will make a store run after work tomorrow and run another test to see where I'm at. Should I be...

I was looking at the TF-100 kit. What I didn't see, unless I just missed it, was how long the kit will last assuming 1 set of tests per day.

Have had new 48"x27' AG is service for a week. It was filled with deep-well water which has no issues with scale or iron. After three days to fill the 17,200 gallons or so, it was crystal clear. For startup added two 3" tabs, 1 bottle algicide and 1 pack of shock. Ever since test strips show PH...

Dang, I kept expecing Hugh Heffner and some young ladies to show up in one of those pics. What a wonderful spot.

Great pool and deck.Did you build the deck yourself?

We had a 24' AGP about years ago but had to leave it behind when we moved. We are looking to get one for next season. We still want an AGP but are leaning toward a 27'. We are looking for something designed for permanent installation that will easily adapt to a surroundig deck. What we had...
