In Phoenix and our water is very hard which means high CH. I’ve been lazy all winter about keeping logs but CH is nearing 1000 ppm. Phoenix CCR has fill water hardness anywhere from 150-350. Pool was just built, and filled, November 2023 so about a year and a half with the same water. How high...

What the title says. Spent a few minutes saying syncing while I opened the app. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Opened it again to the same syncing screen. Once it finally loaded it’s asking me to set up a new pool and has no record of my existing pool.

I keep running into a fading endpoint with the calcium hardness test. I’ve tried both methods the site suggests of adding the R-0012 drops first and the distilled water method. Both seem to still produce a purple color before it turns blue. The fact that I’m in Phoenix leaves me no doubt my...

Turned off my RJ45+ overnight. Went to turn it on this morning and the control module was making an unusual, loud humming/whining noise. Turned it off and back on and it still made the noise. Tried off/on once more and the humming has seemed to subside. Anyone experience anything like this...

I would have to go in and manually change that in another field which I haven’t done.

Looking for some help here. All values and chemical selections remain the same in the pool math app. I’m getting different suggestions on quantities to add. If I go into Ph initially the 14.5% acid is defaulted (which is what I’m using). I get one suggestion of amount to add at 66oz. If I...

Phoenix area. Using a Taylor test kit, salt was 3200 about two months ago. Just tested today (yesterday I tested without smart stir and got 2800) with the smart stir and I’m at 2600. No water softener on fill water but I do need to test fill salt levels. We’ve had about 8 people over twice for...

I’m surprised scale would form that fast (8 months) especially with CSI being < .6 I’m curious, is it normal to see scale form higher than the waterline? I feel like I’m always adding MA as it seems PH is what’s throwing CSI off with the new plaster but I guess I’ll just need to test more...

Pool was completed August 2023. PebbleTec came out and made the PB redo the pebble sheen in November 2023 so it’s been maintained since then by ourselves aside from the start up company the PB made come out initially. Anyways, today, I noticed a very small piece of missing grout where the...

6 days later and CYA still reads around 50. I must not have been reading my prior CYA test correctly because I would think I’d see a higher number by now. Again, I had soaked the CYA in a sock in the skimmer then took it out and dangled it in front of a return while I squeezed it out. Pump runs...

Been spending a lot of time with number 1 this week. If CYA could show up to the test party that’d be great. Haven’t had algae since the pool was filled thanks to you all and want to keep it that way.

I was adding about 3-4ppm per day of liquid chlorine. But the temps have ramped up fast this week. Pool is mostly in the sun with some partial afternoon shade so I guess that isn’t unreasonable. I’ll bump up the RJ to 30 and see if we get back on track. Added the CYA using a sock. Let the sock...

I’ve been working on getting the new SWG up and dialed in this week. Needed to add CYA to raise to 70. 2 days ago I added 27 oz of the Clorox Chlorine Stabilizer. Undershot a few ounces of what pool math said just to account for any testing user error. Easier to fix under than over. Pump has...
