Moved from here. I noticed yesterday the area below the general area of water line is roughish, after reviewing this it looks like my laissez faire attitude towards chlorine level may have cause this, I generally follow TFP guidelines however I figured 'a little extra chlorine couldnt be bad...

I am sure this topic has been well played but its friday so...... is having a solar blanket worth it to warm pool and keep warm? Looks like a bit of a hassle to rollup , store, etc. We mainly use our pool on the weekend so would be covered most of the week, we have a pool cover for offseason so...

So I was backwashing to remove some of the Ida rain, going to rinse the filter the handle broke off, I thought I miraculosuly found a replacement however once I got it opened and went to replace it the bottom portion was too large and was advised would need to special order Since I have it open...

It felt like we were in a CAT1 storm, pool was overflowing as we got 3" maybe more rain in an hour or so, everyone is fine other than some soggy basements and downed trees in the neighborhood. Pool was obviously filthy so I checked chlorine asap and from color test looked fine, ran a full test...

FC-3 CC-0.5 CH- 350 TA- 110-120- instructions said it should turn red, turned pink and then a dark pink CYA- 45- I sort of went cross-eyed doing this may need to try again :cool: Is there not a way to get an accurate PH with this test? With the standard PH tester I am getting 8.2, which is on...

I have left over from our pool build last year these items, I have them on craigslist. The ladder is reasonable to ship, however the railing, I guess because of the size of the box is prohibitively expensive ($100-$150). Let me know if you are interested, would ideally be someone local...
