So yesterday I texted the PB and asked when we can swim. He said if the pH is 7.0-7.4 then we could swim tomorrow (Sunday). I just tested it 7.0 pH. Well I'm leaving on 3 day trip tomorrow morning before sunrise. Do you think it'd be okay to let the kids go a day early?

He added a bunch of acid yesterday and it drove the pH down to 7.0. I'm not adding anything until I have been totally cleared by him.

I have TF-100 with Speed Stir so that I can become a mad scientist. But it's my first pool so there is a learning curve. Has anyone ever compiled all of the Pool School info into a Word document or something that is easily printed out? I am going to be flying all day tomorrow and it would be a good thing to bring along and read.
 
Pool School - ABCs of Pool Water Chemistry

This is a good one to print out and read. I would also print out the levels link I sent you.

Will you have access to a computer? If so here is something "fun" to play with. You can pretend that your have a FC of ?? and want it to be ??. What would you do?

Make sure you set the field on the bottom to using TFP.

Here is another neat link. It talks about the CYA/FC link.

Pool School - Chlorine / CYA Chart

These should keep you busy. It is a lot to go through. It will make sense as you do your tests and do what needs to be done.

Make notes and write questions you might have.

I have found that just reading posts in other areas have taught me SO much on how to care for my pool.

Flounder, this may be too late, but I have most everything from Pool School on Word Docs. PM me your email if you would like me to send them to you for printing. I made sure to keep the Copyright date at the bottom of each, so hopefully there aren't any issues with that.

I did not print the picture encyclopedia from Pool School.

Hi Flounder! I just read through your build. Congratulations on a gorgeous pool and kitchen!!! The colors are stunning! I love it!!! You have a beautiful family. What great times you all are going to have in that yard!
 
Thanks Nursenini! We are really enjoying it even though we don't have the kitchen/patio finished. The water is a bit cold but I can't heat it until 23 days after plaster according to the PB. Eek! Not sure we can wait that long.

I will post more pictures soon when the patio and everything gets finished.
