Thanks. Great video. How do you think I could attach it to my return on my I ground pool. Screw it into water jet somehow? All my numbers look good just remains cloudy. Changed the sand in the filter yesterday. Ph 7.2 FC 6 TA 80 Cya 80 Temp 92

Gonna try a copy this over to chem 201

Need to borrow a big truck and trailer. Going to drag pool off into the woods and leave it. Apparently haven't gotten the metals out. Every time I add chlorine it goes brown. Any step by step on how to make a filter (like I have seen in pics posted) to catch the metals or do the paper towels...

Thanks. Will retreat AA. Add sequestrant. Paper towels. We'll see.

Having trouble getting pool from Orange to clear. After adjust TA and pH. Took sample to locals Leslie pool supply and they tell me no iron or copper. Every time I try and add chlorine the water turns orange/brown. Use ascorbic acid and it clears again. Took test water after using AA. Could this...

Just back home from Afghanistan. Thanks to all the help you gave my wife while gone. Question about test kit results. Trying to perform TA test. 25 ml of water in cylinder. Added 2 drops of r-0007. Water stays clear. Add 5 drops of r-0008 and mixed and solution turns red-pink. No green or blue...

water is fairly clear, just not crystal. again i looked at the chlorine/cya chart Isaac suggested, with a cya of 60 my shock target is 24, correct? if so, that increases my chlorine volume to 11 gallons. should i go thru the whole draining process again? UGH!! or add the 11 gals of chlorox?? i...

drained again, managed to get many of the wrinkles out. THANK YOU! #'s this morning- pH 7.2 FC 1 TA 80 CYA 60. yes. i have read pool-school/metal stains, multiple times, that is when i did the lemon test. no metals detected in water, well...according to pool store ALL water has "certain" metals...

really confident in my results but willing to try anything so I repeated the CYA using BOTH methods suggested- only difference went out into the sunlight to read-remains 70 at best. also filled view tube totally with pool water black dot can be seen clearly. pool water temp is 84 degrees. as...

Hello all, Wanted to thank you for sending responses to my wife while i am overseas. Wanted to question if she should drain again or let evaporation help with removal of water? In Texas we see alot of evaporation loss over the summer. What is an acceptable level to quit draining pool and letting...

i have drained the pool at least 1/2 the volume 4 times and 30% or more once. i have not touched it for 2 days and left the pump running 24/7. the color is kinda cloudy-very light green, easily see the bottom. these are the #'s i got this morning. i really had rather not drain it again.......if...

okay then....draining again. suggested target to shock on TFP calc is 23...? is that my target?

Thank you much for the direction! I have drained the pool about a 1/3 the first time and the 2nd time probably too much ( i now have a few wrinkles in my liner). After refilling and running the pump continuously here are my #'s after 24 hrs- pH-7.2 FC-7.5 CC-0 TA-90 CYA-90 I entered these into...

my husband, also my pool man, was recently deployed to afghanistan. he has always used TFP and the BBB method. i now in charge of the pool trusted our local pool chain to guide me (i was unfamiliar and afraid to use TFP). i have been battleing our pool for over a month now and am seriously...

Thanks for all the help. Looks like liner is in place but can't see deep end yet (another post with #'s). Again thanks for the guidance.

First off thanks for the advice on my pool liner lifting off wall. As far as I can see it is back in place. Only problem is still cloudy and can't see the bottom in deep end. Have been sweeping daily. Vaccum used today. Pump on 24/7 x last 3 days. Have held FC near 20 for 3 days with clorox...

Roger that. Have a TF-100 kit. Just wanted a quickie.

Bottom picture is same as 1st and 3rd pics from earlier post. Steps are to show murkiness and can't see bottom yet. Cholrine from non existent to off the chart.

Liner seems to be laying flat on sides. Must clear up water and will send you new pics when i can see bottom better. Thanks for all the info!

Do not have a "well point" that i know of. Do I just wait and see? I have drained about 2 1/2 ft of water out. Do i drain the pool completely? Do I refill the water i already drained out? Do i try and use pump placed behind the liner remove water?

The perfect storm occurred. Pool pump went out and heavy rains happened. Pool crested. Puu in sump pump but was too late. Now pool liner has alot of water behind it and I have been reading but not alot of info out there on how to remove. Saw a youtube video where guy got his back up but not how...
