I don't know if you've been watching the Olympics Ron69 but the pool crew feels your pain! Well old pain. Maybe they just need more rain water too! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nature at her finest! I'm glad for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow what a difference. So you're using the Floc? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Will definitely look into to it when I'm back from vacation Kim. Thanks for the heads up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow needsajet, that's a pretty cool compliment. Thanks for that. I'm enjoying every minute of this system and this forum. Holiday starts tomorrow so when I get back in a week I will start start dropping the PH and raising it back up with aeration, try and get that TA down. Then working on the...

Just asked a neighbor who has been on my block since 1978 if he knows when my pool was built. He said it was here when he moved in! Then called me 30 minutes later to inform me he got in touch with the person who was the first owner of the house next door to me and that guy says it was built in...

Yes I was there Kim. It was her second ultra sound. My 15yr old (13 then) was there too. The doctor was looking at the screen showing us the heartbeat when my son said "I think I saw another one!" the Dr. said me too. Added more jelly to here stomach for better connection then smiled and said...

I too have a 24 yr old, then a 15yr old, a 5 yr old and last but not least we were trying for that all so elusive girl after having 3 boys and we got her... along with her twin brother!!!!! Now I'm 44yrs old and changing diapers, two at a time! Twins are 19mos. I'm tired, but blessed. Thank you...

Yup they are the reason I keep this pool up and going. I have 5 children but only one in this pic. My son Jonah and his friend Sophia and yes they are both shooting me with water guns! Just realized my boy has a wicked tan! gonna have to start keeping that kid in the house! Sent from my...

This is after a day of swim.

Thanks Marian, had the alligator mouth pointing the wrong way! Pics are up.

Oh yes got side tracked and didn't even list new numbers! I also did a slam after the refill because I had a mild case of mustard before the drain. I used the leftover dichlor I had to bring up the CYA from zero and also complete the Algae Slam killing 2 birds with one stone. Now I just need to...

Well I finally made up my mind and went with the 50% drain to get CYA and CH down. At 50% decided to go 100% drain because needs a new drain cover in deep end. All worked well. Color wheel in light stopped working about 2 years ago, saw water in the Pentair Sam light while water was draining...

This thread puzzles me. I wish somebody would come in here with a notion that miraculously worked! Until then I would just tell visitors I filled it with lake water because it's more natural. They would probably never even give it a second thought. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It seems we are all having mixed results. My experiment shows the TF cylinders to be the more accurate. Then again I am by no means an engineer and I was using a simple syringe from my kids medicine drawer. Shame too because the Taylor cylinder stays so much more secure on the SpeedStir. When I...

Yes the SpeedStir is well worth it, even if just for the amusement! But on a serious note just imagine having to put one drop and then shake to stir then another drop shake to stir so on and so forth 25 or even more times! Some of these tests can take a lot of drops and stopping to rattle that...

Thank you to everyone posting with help. Just to update I have got my PH down to 7.2 and been keeping my FC up high in the 20's until I decide to drain 50% or not. Pool still looks bright and clear but I'm leaving on Holiday next week so I can't really start a SLAM or anything really until I get...

I had same experience as brims, even down to the email from Rebecca with tracking info. In Los Angeles area as well. Weird!!!

Thanks needsajet, I will be shopping for best bleach or chlorine price soon since I'm down to my last 2 gallons and the local Walmart upped theirs from $2.50 to $3.68. I was reading a thread on the subject a few night back and it seems I got away with that price longer than most (changed 2 weeks...

Thanks for all the great advice and welcomes from everyone. Yes needsajet I have been practicing up whilst I waited for my TF-100. I can honestly say I feel pretty comfortable with what needs to done and how to do it with all the charts and information here. I just may need somebody to hold my...

Hello everybody I hope I have set up my signature and all correctly! First a little history. Had this home and pool for 6 yrs, always been the pool boy and never really ran into anything more than mustard algae. This year my 15yr old was taking over but can't seem to keep it clean and holdin...
