Hi all, We started up our new plaster about ten days ago. I *think* I poured acid incorrectly on the first step and got a few spots. Please see the attached image. In my defense, I was just trying to help it spread it quickly but must have created pockets of low pH. How do I fix this? Jack's ID...

Aha I see what you did there :) I went back to the TFP start-up article and I seem to have forgotten to finish reading it haha. Anyway, now that I have, I am pleased to find out that I am indeed following most of the steps. So once, the week is over (thursday), how much should I run the filter...

Hello friends, We have new plaster. The pool has been full and the pump running for 5 days now. How long should I be running it now? How often should I wash my cartridge filter? Daily brushing and testing. Anything else that I am forgetting? Thanks!

@ajw22 thank you so much! Resetting the frequency did the trick. We're back in business :D

Thank you. I have the heater manual. I just couldn't find where it shows how to check the copper plate.

Wow, thanks for the link. My manual doesn't have a troubleshooting page! My husband is the handyman. I'll ask him to check the electric stuff.

Great idea. They did not. I guess I'll do it myself. ETA: Just looked at the manual. They don't show how I could get in. I'll do some youtube research!

Hello everyone, We just replastered our pool plaster. There were greenish stains in the pool prior to this. One of the companies from whom we got an estimate told us to watch out for copper in the water from corroded heater coils due to bad chemistry. (We went with another company). Anyhow, now...

Thank you all for your ideas. It was probably from the decking. The startup crew was able to take care of this for me. It is back to being pristine :)

Hello everyone, We have the Jandy AquaLink RS PDA installed in 2006 when the pool was built. We just got our pool replastered. It looks so beautiful and clean. The filter, cleaner, and waterfall have been on a schedule for a while so I haven't needed to fiddle with the remote for a while...

Probably organic. It rained all night.
