    FC is disappearing overnight!

    I have been keeping track of the CYA. We started the season with a O then after adding Stabilizer in a sock near the skimmer on 3 separate occassions it's got up to a 30 then 40 then 50. Will be checking everything again today as we got slammed with rain last night in the storms that went...

    FC is disappearing overnight!

    High Amonia levels

    We have a 12000 AG Oval pool that we are converting from Baquacil to Chlorine. When we had the water tested at the pool store today.(our test kit has been ordered not here yet) we were told we had high Amonia levels and could either spend a lot of money on chemicals or drain our pool. Anyone...
