Good recco with the K1106, I’ll grab that soon. Chlorinating with liquid chlorine, hardness around 50. FC usually stays around 3-5.

I’m seeking advice on some light green stains around my return jets. Nothing major, this was the first year we covered our pool in the off season and I wasn’t as diligent about checking the water condition. The water was always clear but I wasn’t adding algaecide or phosphate removers for 3-4...
