    PoolMath App - pH calculation isn't correct

    Yes it is! So I am struggling with maintaining proper pH - always on the high side 8.1 - 8.3 if I don't add acid every day. I haven't been really paying too much attention to TA other than when Leslies tester tells me it is out of range. I will pay more attention to this number going forward...

    PoolMath App - pH calculation isn't correct

    Okay, after dfwnoob suggested I verify pool size I went back and also looked at all the entries on the pH page. I was missing total alkalinity. Once I entered that number it gave me the proper result. Issue resolved -Thanks!

    Plumbing Help - 3 Way Valve Replacement on pump inlet side.

    I need to replace a 3 Way valve that is tied to the inlet side of my pump. The valve is cracked thanks to the freeze in north Texas (and my belief that we wouldn't lose power - haha bad mistake). My question is really about the pipe going into the pump. It looks like 2" CPVC but I cannot tell if...

    Greetings From Arlington, TX!

    Jim, Thanks so much for taking the time to read my post and point out the SWCG recommendation! I actually 'assumed' that it was a IC20 because I thought that the book that came with it called out the max pool size in gallons and I thought I read 20,000 gal. I will verify once I get back home...
