thanks for the info. I decided to go with the following and I can use my military discount at HD Robelle 25 lb. Calcium Plus for Swimming Pools Store SKU #1003108517 Internet #304919712 1 x $44.86 $44.86

I kind of figured that about the testing. Much appreciated by all. Have ordered all new reagents for the CH testing. I think we are all in agreement about the testing. However the post has gotten away from my original question about the product I showed.

I still haven't got an answer on the post. Is that product I posted suitable to use or should I use a pool labled product.? I am under the assumption(haha) that calcium chloride is just that. No matter how its advertised.

Thanks for the link. I see it at the bottom, 115ppm

Thanks, I was getting ready to sorder some, so I guess I need to get some coming

I dont understand, I accidently drained the pool . I had to refill 85% to 90% of the water and now fixing my mistake. I tested with my Taylor kit like always. The solution never turned red to indicate CH. I just retested to verify. If there is any CH in the water I cant see it turn red at all

I have to add a lot of calcium chloride to my pool based on PM and my almost draining mistake. Tested today and PM showed 0 CH. And to achieve 250 I need 16lbs CC. I know it says on the package CC Icemelt pellets.

I did the math on the 7.8 vs 7.4 and its a 5 1/4% diff.. What I have been doing is using the avg of the 2

I guess thats what he was talking about. I always use the 10ml for FC

My test kit uses the 44ml sample and 5 drops

I have asked this before a while back. Never came up with a solution. Anway I had an accidental almost draining of my pool. Not gonna go into details. But none the less it gave me the opportunity to almost have a clean refill. So, after refilling almost 85% of the pool. I am in the process of...

Sorry but I dont have those pictures anymore. The product is just a clear penetrating sealer. It turn the deck a slightly darker color till it drys, then the water just beads up. If I run across them I will post

I run a standard skimmer and a pool skim attachment that has always done me well. Maybe I need to increase my rpm a little bit until I get this figured out

Yes robot does. I do plan on doing a OCLT just to be sure

I hope this is posted in the right locaton.I dont post very often so I will start with my numbers. FC 8, TA 80, PH 7.8, Wtr temp 64, CH 250, % output @ 40%, Salt content Avg 2200, Instant 2700, Tested with Taylor kit 3400. CYA not tested. Pool is clear, FC has been staying around 6-8. The brown...

":Thanks for the info . My new cell readings are a whole lot more stable and accurate than the gernic one that I did return and got a FULL refund .

price now approx $65/gallon. It went on really easy. I probobly need to re do in a couple of years. They are easy to contact and has held up well.

Got new Hayward T9 cell installed.(yes I upgraded from a T3 to hopefully extend the life) Changed cell type in the menu. Set output to 25% for now. New readings at start, Avg 3200, instant -3500, 27.6V, 4.82A...big difference.

Thats a very good explanation. Once I get my new OEM saltcell installed. I will probably address the phosphates. Thanks

SO new salt test kit results was 3400, phosphate kit measured 3300. Never had I even considered phosphates in my pool for all these years until I took 1 sample to the pool store to the pool store to have my salt level tested. Thats what started all of this. I am now waiting on a new OEM salt...

I removed the piece of junk generis cell and re-istalled my old one. SHipped the new off for a refund...fingers crossed. Ordered a OEM cell. And supplementing with bleach until then

Today's reading at 3P was FC 6 so I bumped the output to 20%. Still working on replacing water when I can to lower my CYA level. I jsut dont have the time to attempt it all in one day. I happened to be at the panel when it was generating. Average salt was 3400, instant was 2400. I dont remember...

I rcvd my Taylor K-1766 salt test kit and my pool tested at 3400. My Aquarite Avg reading is 3400 with the new generic salt cell. My FC has been holding steady yesterday @3p=9.5FC, today at 130P=8FC. I will keep monitoring the FC to ensure the cell is maintaing proper FC level.

A lot of good info here...thanks to everyone. My salt test kit will be arriving tomorrow. I have also been replacing some of my water in small to moderate amounts due to my high level of CYA(which by the way is not the subject here. ) I noticed that my panel is reading a more believable salt...

Just orderedd my K-1766 salt test kit and K -1106 Phospahate kit. Also started water change to lower the CYA. I have a protable sump pump. 30 mins at a time pumping out water and adding. Tehn do it again and test the next day.

Thanks for that. I am also looking into getting a salt test kit. How good is the Taylor K-1766 Salt water drop test kit.?

The only test result that I posted that was from the pool store was the salt reading. Everything else I tested with my Taylor reagents. I turned my salt system off to bring the FC reading down. TA 70-80(just started turning color at 70 and full color at 80) CH 260 PH did not test because of FC...
