    Pool Math........The App

    I was able to get logged in today. I just put in my info, and let it turn for about 2-3 mins (kept touching my screen to keep it from going to sleep) and then it logged in. I think I'll wait till all the bugs are worked out before trying to use it to save my data. Just in case it gets wiped out...

    Pool Ladder/Handrail Anchor

    Yea, I've tried pulling up on it with a strong set of "thick" needle nose plyers. Didn't help. I was gonna try it with a crowbar I have and see if it will help. Otherwise I might just use my reciprocating saw to do exactly what you said. Preciate the help Richard!

    I hate pool stores. Need help with test kit

    I bought the K-2006 and have followed the advice on TFP. Never again will I ever follow advice from anywhere else. This year has been much better opening my pool! (Even though I had to dump 3/4 of my water lol. ) Bite the bullet, get the test kit and save later!

    High CYA? Another water dump?

    Well... Got it dumped again, for the 2nd night in a row. Sure hope this cures my CYA issues. Hopefully it will be majority full in the AM when I get up. I think this puts me at about 3/4 water change out in the last two days :(

    High CYA? Another water dump?

    Yup, just as I figured, it was right around 55. So that puts me around 110. Darn..... I'm disappointed! Guess I'm dumping more water! :(

    High CYA? Another water dump?

    So, when I came home last night, I tested my CYA and it was pretty high. I don't know how high it was as it was off the charts. So I guessed and then dumped about 40% (give or take) of my water. Here's are some pics. and the water after I took it out As you can see, I took it down to...

    PH or Borax

    So, I've been reading and reading etc.. Ive successfully slammed my pool. (After I've already added a ton of bag shock! I know I know, it's a bad thing). I have since drained 1/3 of my pool and then refilled her up. Gotta check the "levels" when I get home tonight. So, in my reading, I swear...
