That's what I figured. I didn't see any obvious holes in the shallow end when walking around and it was too cold to jump in the deep end and do a thorough inspection. I don't see any large tears or rips so if there is a hole it has to be relatively small.

So today I took the cover off my in-ground pool only to discover about half to two-thirds of the water is missing. The new water level doesn't align with any jets, skimmer or pool light cut-outs so I'm wondering if there is a hole in the liner somewhere. I'm just surprised that around 10k...

Hah I just installed the cobalt fusion as well with no border, really like it

So as is tradition here is my annual post to humble brag about the TFP method and my pool going from opened to crystal clear in 24 hours. I can easily see the main drain cover screws from 10' away I can't recommend the TFP app enough and it sure beats paying someone else more money for subpar...

Been following/using the TFP method for a few years now and every year I remember why. Opened the pool on a Sunday, ran the robot a few times, tested the water, added salt/CYA/borax/liquid chlorine, turned on the SWCG, did a mini-SLAM and four days later pool looks immaculate. Can clearly see...

Hmm I added 4 lbs over the past week or so, will keep an eye on pH and see if it stabilizes with no cya being added. Thanks for the insight as always.

Not that I'm aware of, haven't had to fill except for once at beginning of season. Didn't think of rain but the pH drops even with no rain. What you are saying makes sense, pH shouldn't drop unless acid is being added. I will have to think about what could be introducing acid into the water...

No cover unless pool is closed for the season.

Every week my pool pH is consistently lower by .1 or so. I have a SWCG so I assumed I would have to deal with the opposite. It's not a big deal, I add 1lb of borax every other week to bring pH back up to 7.7-7.8 and my TA remains about the same at 70 every time I test. I am more curious than...

Hah easy enough, thank you
