Thanks guys! This has not created a problem that I am aware of and my PH is pretty stable. I am just trying to follow my poolmath results and it always flags as high. If it isn't a problem then I'm good with it. Thanks!

Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse here. My TA has been high for the 2nd year in a row. Current test results. Help is much appreciated FC= 3.5 CC= .5 PH= 7.6 TA= 210 CH= 250

Yes, I just recently opened it. Thanks

I have a major backflow of water when I shut my pump off. It will blow the lid off the skimmer at times. I'm assuming I have an air leak somewhere. I just resealed the fittings into the filter. Possible pinhole/air leak on the hose from skimmer to pump? I will say the lid to the pump basket is a...

I found this in the garage. Can I use this to just use it up? If so, is it considered dichlor? Thanks! My normal bleach is 73% Cal Hypo

This is exactly what I was trying to say.....Thank you and sorry for the confusion. I'm all good was just curious.

I just ordered the TF-Pro and it is really nice.....highly recommend!

I did my first OCLT last night and the results were good...... no fc loss. The TF-Pro and this forum is definitely a game changer when it comes to taking care of your pool. It's nice to be in control of water testing and to learn how to properly do it.....still alot to learn here for me but I...

Thanks for the help and advice. I did use the 25ml for TA. I stop when the color turns pinkish red.....is that right? I retested this morning after I added recommended amounts from last nights test. I have well water I use for makeup and will test that tonight after work. I did just fill the...

This is a very nice test kit and the smartstir makes it super easy! I was a little gunshy but after doing it and following the instructions(which are great) it went really well. Few questions I have are: Why is my TA testing so high? Is this normal? Are people adding bleach daily or every other...

Thanks! Will do

I am anxiously waiting on my test kit. In the meantime I feel as though I have a problem. Chlorine was testing low as well as FC yesterday. I am using 73% cal hypo. Attached is my water test from June 20th. Looking like I have a problem since my CC is so high? Water was cloudy after adding cal...

Thanks, I have a question before I order. Is the PH meter worth adding it on as an extra? Does it work good?

I found my old but never used TF-100 test kit from around 8-9 years ago minus the K-1000. Are the chemicals still good and can I use it or should I buy a new one. I'm looking to utilize the info on this site to keep my wife and I out of the pool store and to get a better understanding at keeping...

Ok...im still waiting for my tf-100 to show up....just trying to get ph lowered in the meantime

What would you guys recommend for an initial dose sinc my ph is measuring off the tester? Im thinking about plugging 8.3 into pool math and starting there.

Thanks for the info, im using the phenol red. I did just have to shock it for an algae problem about 5 days ago.

I have a TF-100 test kit on order, my cheap test kit keeps coming back as high ph. I keep addding granular sodium bisulfate i think it is to lower but dont see a change. How soon can i test after adding? I have added two doses by mixing it in good in a pail of water.

Just curious about the comment about the solar cover hangers. I looked for a post but didnt see anything. I find myself wrestling with mine all the time and was looking for ideas

Just want to follow this one as well. I'm new to all this as well. Good Luck!
