It’s 5 years old I keep pushing +. Shows the same numbers with a small variation in volts. Done it 4 times now. All the same.

Salt level 3000

Got a T-9 salt cell. All has been well. Noticed this AM, DE filter was clogging and pool was turning cloudy. Backwashed, added new filter media. Flowing great. Noticed my salt cell was saying low salt. Added a bag. Now it says 0000. Or 0100 or 0700 at times. No chorine. Took off...

No they don't.

Tested before adding. Salt 2900ppm he said I could add a bag. Need to run to store again for one. SWG is fine, no errors. Added 3 cups of bleach. I'll Go out and add more in a bit.

Goodness. Now I messed up. Shall I not trust the company who put my pool in? They tested the water. Gave me a recommendation and told me what to buy a the local store. They came out today. We added the chemicals together. Checked all my components. I agree I need a better testing kit. I...

Pool company store testing water and test strips I have. I'll ordered the kit. Not here yet.

So.... Update. PH 7.6 FC O Alkalinity 40/50 Stabalizer/CYA 0

Okay

At $70+ for that kit...I'm holding off. Will soon. Got my water tested.

Okay, 5 lbs of stabilizer 4 lbs of baking soda Test again tomorrow. Wish me luck.

I did, its at the bottom. Thanks again all. I added more bleach. Will re-evaluate this afternoon when I get home.

I did read. Did what pool school said. Didn't add bleach yet...because I can't figure why my cell didn't produce it. Pool school said add muric acid to lower PH. I did. But my alkalinity is way to low. Pool school says add baking soda stuff, so I did. All according to 15k and how much to...

Test results. FC-0. If I wait 10min, might register just below 1. Didn't bother with total or combined. Failed first so didn't move on. Bromine didn't test. Told for spas. PH 7.8-8+ Alkalinity 50

I'm using the test kit they gave me. FC Total Chorine Combined Bromine PH Alkalinity That's it. Nothing about CYA. Never heard that mentioned. No sign of algae. Pool looks great. Why I'm confused.

Okay, off and running. Pool seems fine. Looks good. People are happy. BUT...despite 100% chlorine going in cell and super chlorinating for a day...I register nothing. Maybe just under 1. Not sure why. All is running well. Pool only 6 months old. Next. PH is high. Added acid to lower. Worked...

Thanks!

I thought that too. A sun sail is easier to replace. Just worried it doesn't cover much, and I can only do a triangle one on my corner (No place for the 4th post).

Okay gang, we have a large deck, no problem. Just don't have the $$$$ to build a solid structure. That will be down the road. So we are looking at Sun Sails which look cool, with 3 large post, or just a big box store gazebo. We can easily do a 10x12' gazebo, but more expensive and more upkeep...

Cute story.

Judging by the response, most people don't use these?

my guess is 4x4. Not sure why, if I dig a good hole with concrete, I would need a 6x6.

I will connect it to 3 12' beams. My guess, a good 8' tall. Sun in the summer is nearly directly over from 10am-4pm.

Okay peeps, I have read a few forums. Seems people love the sun sails. One a couple of pictures are shown. Unfortunately I have not seen one set up, so I can't quite wrap my thoughts around how much they shade. Here's the deal, I am looking at a 16x16x16 or 16x22x16 triangle to add to the...

So the question is...now that I have my concrete done and most of the leaves have been in and out of the pool...What's the point of a cover if I have a fence around it(installed this week). Do you have one? My problem is that I would hate to drill 20 holes in the concrete. The other option...
