    Would like some opinions

    Think you may be right. I still have the old sand filter in place for the next week and I did backwash it the day before so maybe all this adds up to what I'm seeing. I'll keep a close eye on it over the next week to see if anything changes. Otherwise laughing and splashing.

    Would like some opinions

    Again thanks for your guidance. We do have a lot of trees and this year we've had a bit of a caterpillar issue so they've been dropping a lot of dung into the pool. For the past week I've had to vac out a small pile of it that collects at the bottom of the deep end. Last few days they have...

    Thanks. Just trying to follow the yellow brick road (no pun intended). Any idea why the CC drop? I did add stabilizer about a week ago and have read it may take that long to show up in testing. Could this be a reason for the drop in CC? Also my pool only gets sun from about 8am to 1pm. Then...

    Would like some opinions

    Wanted to post a head scratcher and would again like feedback from anyone. Preparing to SLAM for the first time because my CC was sitting at 1 for the last 4 days (test results above). I performed the OCLT last night. Turned the SWG off around 6pm. Water sample last night around 10pm. Results...

    So if I need to SLAM my pool even thought the water is currently very clear do I need to bring my CYA number up from 30 to around 70 before starting the slam?

    SO have had the pool open for just a couple of weeks. Had to initially vac to waste a whole bunch of dead algae and add water a couple of times ( my pool equipment list does say canister filter but I'm still running a sand filter for the next week until canister is installed). Had water tested...

    Need advice on size of plumbing line to use!

    Could use a little help from one of the experts on this. I need to bury the plumbing line by this Friday morning. Help if you can.

    Need advice on size of plumbing line to use!

    I'm adding a heat exchanger to my system and need some advice. The heat exchanger is 60' away from my filter. I need to run a feed from the filter and return to the gas heater. Both will be approx 60' long so total of 120' there and back. Pump is 3/4 hp. The heat exchanger has 1 1/2" sized...

    Finally Building - Manvel TX

    I know your concentration is on the water issue at this point and I'm confident that will get resolved shortly. If you don't mind I have a different question. I noticed along the edge of the shallow pad area to the left of the grotto there is a line of dark colored dots in the plaster. They also...
