    Pool Math........The App

    If you've used PoolMath here on the site, any idea how much you've saved in chemicals over time? :) This is my first year with a somewhat large pool and this site has been invaluable for me. I've easily saved over $60 in chemicals alone so far this season and it would have been closer to $90...

    Pool Math........The App

    Hey Lee, Just wanted to let you know the forced screen on feature worked perfect! Did a full battery of tests tonight. Felt like the entire process went faster too since I wasn't having to try to beat the clock in touching the screen every few seconds to keep it alive. Keep up the great work...

    Pool Math........The App

    I upgraded the app as soon as it was available. I didn't realize the suggestion would have been implemented so quickly! The last couple of tests I logged I followed my standard procedure of touching the screen every few seconds... :) Hopefully others will find it as useful as you and I...

    Pool Math........The App

    Hi Everyone, I wanted to thank the creators of the Pool Math app. I'm a newbie pool owner and newly subscribed to TFP. I've been absorbing as much information as I can reading these forums and having bought the TF-100 test kit I was looking for a place to store my test results. The timing of...

    Confused After SLAM

    Another link to Menards. I love that place! I'll check it out. The CYA chart is a tab I keep up on my browser for the moment. The TFP App has the recommendations listed as well.

    Confused After SLAM

    Thank you for the numbers! This explains something I am seeing with CYA. This morning when I tested I stopped dropping at around 60ppm, but the subjective nature of this particular test is even commented on the card. I could still see the "dot" at the bottom of the tube until I got to 50, but...

    Confused After SLAM

    I use poolmath to do the clorine add for FC and target FC too. I guess I was more curious about how often pool owners practicing TFP are adding chlorine to their pool. I have a floater with pucks and my FC is staying on the high side, but not changing much. Last night I ran across a thread...

    Confused After SLAM

    Hi Pool Gurus, I'm a pool newbie looking for some wisdom. After performing my first test with my TF100 kit a few days ago I found testing to be a very straightforward process and being a number guy, I can't stop testing now. I'm so concerned about my FC and CC numbers that I just keep...

    Intoduction and Base Material Question

    Hi Richard, Thank you for your feed back! I wasn't worried about cushioning as much as I am concerned about the health and longevity of the liner. After we got the pool filled and I started walking around in it I noticed all the little rocks an other objects that we missed while leveling. I'm...

    Intoduction and Base Material Question

    Hello Everyone! Apologies up front for this long diatribe. If you choose to keep reading you might want to set aside some time and grab a drink... :) I've been a reader of this site for the last few years after inheriting an 8'x30" round Intex Easy Set from our neighbors. My kids quickly...
