What I don't understand is why isn't my FC changing. This morning everything is the same as last night, just my PH is now at 7.4. I added zero bleach and my FC stayed the same. Shouldn't the algae on the bottom that I brushed be using up my FC. So two weeks ago when I had this problem I shocked...

I have had troubles with algae this past month. I tried to shocked the pool and left for vacation with clear water and high FC levels (13). I came back today to find algae on the bottom and still high FC(my mother added bleach for me per my instruction while I was gone, obviously I told her too...

i am happy to say that my levels look great, just wating a few more days to check CYA.

so i tested my PH, it barely moved. i put in 30oz of arm and hammer washing soda like the PoolMath says. Do i need to wait a few days or should it have worked, it has been 2 days. should i add more?

My CYA won't dissolve. I put it in a cloth bag i had, i needed 6lbs, so a sock wasn't big enough and i can't get it to dissolve. Any other suggestions besides like 5 socks?

so i have had my pool up for about 10 days, I filled it with tap water over two days. i have been just guessing on the chlorine, putting about 60-80oz of bleach in a day. My K-2006 kit just came and I tested it this morning. Here is what I did and the results I got, please let me know what I...

i left my intex up all year round when i had it. mine is all resin so i think you could use saltwater system, but everyone recommended against it. that was about what i paid for mine installed.

thanks everyone. yes deck next year. we had the pool sunk into the yard about 2 ft, then we will be able to bring the deck out to meet it and it will all be flush. i have some guys coming this week to install a retaining wall and backfill. now i just need some good weather to warm it up!

Thanks Casey, when should I clean it if it is on a 2psi right now? My installer told me when it rose 2 psi, so that is only 4 psi, that doesn't seem like much to have to clean it???

My 27' Round 54" AGP Install with Pictures Last week I had my 27' 54" Blue Cascade Harmony Pool installed. They did a really nice job, i just have some back fill and a retaining wall to build. Here are some pictures. - - - Updated - - - I do have one question, i am only seeing 2 psi...

Thanks John. I have a solar cover on it, so that should keep most surface debris off.

I just had my pool installed and filled. This past weekend we had a lot of rain and the waterline is now over my skimmer. Is that OK or should I pump some of the water out? It is really too cold to swim right now, so i won't have any splashed out for a while. Sorry for the newbie question.

what and how did you back fill it? did you do anything special when you had it back filled? I looked at the specs of your pool, mine are the same except i have 7" Resin uprights vs your 6" coated steel.

they say that it isn't covered by warranty, but i am still thinking about doing it and taking my chances. Woodyp, i see yours is that deep, have you had any problems?

Anyone had issues or know of anyone that has with a buried pool?

to make my AGP level with my deck, i am thinking of burying it 2ft into the ground. Any thoughts on this or anything I should do to the pool differently? I have having the dealer do the install and they said they will do whatever i want.

Pool is purchased, i just added to signature

First I want to say thank you to everyone that has helped me in my decisions on getting a AGP. I go today to buy my 27’ round Blue Cascade Harmony AGP, with skimmer and main drain. Hayward 150 XStream filter and 1.5hp matrix pump. I will be going with the TFPC method. I will be around a lot...

I am looking at a Waterway pump and 150 cartridge filter. I can't seem to find a lot on them, are they are good quality pump and filter?

it is a 2 speed pump.

I decided to go with a Hayward XStream 150 and a Matrix 1.5hp pump. The XStream 150 was the top of my budget, so i got the biggest I could. I really wanted a 1hp, but the XStream only comes with a 1.5hp. During this process of looking for more info on filters and pumps, i sent a tweet to...

i can't find any R-value ratings on them. they say it will increase the r-value of your pool, but so would a sheet of paper to some extent. The lack of substantiated info is what has me the most skeptical.

Yes, 115V. it is AG, i haven't added it to my signature yet because i haven't bought it. i am getting all the details worked out so i can do one purchase and installation. when i do, i will add for sure. I really appreciate the help you all are, i am in great debt to this board already...

120V

I am buying a 27' AGP, my dealer sent me a link with all kinds of options, I saw one for the Thermo-Wall insulation that goes between the liner and the pool wall. I immediately disregarded it as worthless. The more I thought about it the more it sounded like it may work some to insulate the...
