ill reread the procedure to make sure im doing it correctly.

opened up my pool over a week ago and slammed it to get it blue, i had the robot going and getting a lot of debris off the floor and brushed walls during the whole process. I'm at a point where Ive ran the pump for days straight and its not getting any noticably clearer. I'm using brand new...

Awesome, thanks!

Ok, I think I’m gonna give it a go with 2 inch plumbing then, here’s what I drew up for plans and I think this should give me the ability to skip the filter and SWG, as well as providing me with a way to vacuum to waste. Thoughts?

Yeah, I guess my issue is that if I could get away with using 2” pipe it would all be very easy. I’m fairly handy and redid some of the plumbing last year because I removed a non functioning heater so I had to tie things back in. So I’m trying to figure out the best way to do this with using...

So I bought this combo containing a new pump, pre-filter, filter, and SWG. I’m a bit stuck on what’s the best way to plumb these considering all the parts are sized for 2” pipes and I have 1.5” The manuals say not to have a larger diameter pipe on the return side than is on the suction side...

I believe that for sure, was mostly interested in the copper levels I did my home test and got PH - 7.4 TA - 90 CYA - 60 CH - 30 FC - 0

Thanks, This is the first year opening the pool myself since last year I didn’t open it and year before the seller of the house did the opening and I totally forgot all the lessons I learned that first year. do you think we risk staining if I slam now? Free copper was at 0.4 as of this...

I’m currently draining and refilling my pool a few inches at a time to lower CYA and copper (0.4 ppm) after I foolishly added copper based algicide that the pool store sold me. I’m especially worried about staining my vinyl liner once I start the SLAM. I know I’m gonna have to rebalance th get...

Ok, I can cancel that order if you think that's wise, since according to the bleach price calculator the powder is $0.348 per oz vs $0.373 per oz for the liquid at my local store which is not a big difference and then I don't need to mess with dissolving the powder. PH-7.4 TA-100 CH- 30 (don't...
