I have someone confused I don’t know what to trust? I have a Hayward Goldline Prologic that is giving me a salt reading a 3100. I also have a Taylor K – 1766 salt test kit which is giving me a salt level of 3800. I went to Leslie‘s pool today and from their test kit I am getting 2651. What...

OK originally I went with a T cell from salt pool store. Long story short one side of that T cell my couplin was slightly larger and was just over spinning the threads. After reading on here and reviews of people suggesting not to use aftermarket I went ahead and purchased a new Hayward WT3 T-15...

Water temp is 93 I bought a digital salt meter and I’ve been going to the pool store my digital meter is pretty much in line with the pool store. My only question was does anyone know at what point or what number my Hayward system will give on the high side before it goes to high salt amps...

OK so I bought a new SWG got it installed immediately my Hayward pro logic gold system read “High Salt/Amps”. Which I was aware of that this was probably going to be an issue. Since then I have drained about 2 foot from the pool and over filled on three separate occasions I got my salt down to...

OK so I’ve owned my 30,500 gal inground pool for over 10 years. I’ve always used a TFP test kit & calculator. And it kept me going this long with crystal clear water and no issues. About a month ago I got some algae and after getting my chlorine level up to around 28 and maintaining that for...

This should help without all the bashing! Hard to get an answer around here. Diving Board Epoxy Kit

Update: I just spoke with my friend and he said, "the waters not green anymore but kinda cloudy but not milky". This was after putting in 5#'s of level 4 Hth @ 1:30 yesterday and running his pump and dolphin throughout the rest of the day and last night. I didn't catch him in time before...

A friend of mine who isn't that computer savvy has ask me for some help. My water looks great! Thanks to you guys & my TF-100. Anyway his pool was installed by the same company that did mine and he has the exact same as mine (30,500 gal). He opted to go with Pentair clean and clear plus...

Thanks Jason, Which would be better the Granular or Powder Boric Acid? Also what method should I use to put it in my pool? Thanks again

Hey thank you all! Jason i've never used borates but I'm seeing that my pool would require about 91lbs if my calculation is correct. How would you recommend me adding it to my pool? Thanks again

Using my TF-100 test kit here are my current results: FC 6 CC 0 TC 6 TA 120 CH 300 CYA 40 Cl 3 pH 7.5 Br 6 Salt 2900 First off my water looks great! Now my question is should I be concerned with other things that my kit does not...

Crystal clear

What do you guys think? Do I need to do anything? FC 3.5 CC 0 TA 80 CH 150 CYA 20 pH 7.8 CL 5 Br 10 Salt 3300

I did that because this was my test as of yesterday around noon. FC 1.5 CC 0 TA 130 CH 160 CYA Over 20 pH 8.2 CL 1 Br 2 Salt 3300

No I was only asking about the Trichlor because I have easy access to it. SWG has been running all day but last night I added two gal of acid and 3 lbs of turboshock step 2

FC 11.5 CC 0 TA 100 CH 160 CYA 30-40 pH 7.8 Yes we load chlorine into rail cars and barges.

Ill post test results as soon as I get home from work. Just curious to know how useful trichlor could be to me? I work at a chemical plant and have access to trichlor and many other chemicals, solvents, caustic. We make chlorine but its in a liquid / gas form and I'd have no way of transporting it.

Yes my pool is has a SWG, and yes I bought the TF-100 test kit with mixer. 0.3 on CC, if above 0.5 is out of range than just figured 0.3 was a happy medium.

So I've been pool schooling myself this morning and trying to learn, understand & operate Pool Calculator and this is what I've come up with. Please advise me of your thoughts, I'm curious if I'm going the right direction. Thank y'all Target Levels & Basic three chemicals needed to maintain...

I did as instructed in the 17th post from Tec guy.

Here are my numbers today I wanted to give it a few days for the bleach and acid to settle. Here are the numbers for my test results as of today. The looks really clear but I don't think my test results look so good. What do you guys think? FC 1.5 CC 0 TA 130 CH 160 CYA Over 20 pH 8.2...

As you all recommended, I used the pool calculator... Not sure if used correctly, but the figures I came up with called for 7.25 gallons bleach. However, I only added 4 and a total of 2 gallons of MA. I will check pH an chlorine levels and post in the am to see what the next step is, and...

Okay guys, Please don't scold me too badly because I think I have messed up!! I just read that I should not test water for at least a week after putting in stabilizer (must have overlooked this detail). On Tuesday, I put 1 1/2 pounds of stabilizer in 2 socks and put one in each skimmer (this...

Thank you techguy I read your SLAM YOUR POOL so get me up to speed please. How much of what do I need to get my pH down and best way to do so? Also my little girl will be home from school soon and more than likely she'll be wanting to swim. Another words should I wait till later when she is done...

Okay so here are all my numbers: FC 3.5 CC 1 TA 150 CH 140 CYA 30 pH 8.2 CL 3 Br 6 Salt is 3400

Okay thank you guys! I got my TF-100 w/ quikstir, I performed the CHL drop test. Not sure if this was where I needed to start but I did. I ended up with 3.5ppm on the FC & 1ppm on CC. Now what? LOL Note: Between yesterday & today we have gotten about 2.5" of rain
