Normally when I test for salt using the K-1766 I will do a hand swirl but today I tried my speed stir and received different results. Speed Stir- 13 drops and Hand Swirl- 17 drops. Taylor's direction sheet states "Swirl to mix". Speed Stir certainly will mix better and faster than hand but the...

No I don't have a spare bottle, plus, the tip blew off and the reagent went all over.

My blew off as well!

Has anyone had issues with squeezing drops out of R-011L? For the past several months it's been harder and harder to squeeze drops out and finally today, no drops. My bottle is .75 and not expired. Just wanted see if anyone has encountered this.

Hi Everyone- since opening my pool this year my pH has been stable at 7.7 with TA at 60. For the past two years, my pH was always rising and never consistent. Looking at my logs from last year TA was at the highest 80 and lowest 70. Could I have found a sweet spot with my pool with my TA at 60?

Just checked my local Ace and the $2.99 sale ended. My store is showing $5.49. I was told by the manager since Ace is locally owned and operated online sale prices may not be the same as store price but they will always honor the lowest advertised. HTH Liquid Chlorinating Chemicals 1 gal. - Ace...

I didn't go through all 46 pages to see if this was posted but in central NJ (Mercer County) Ace Hardware- $2.99- 1 gallon at 10%.

@Oly Yes, I use K-1766 I find my test reading at 2100 and my SWG showing 2400. That's always fun finding the happy medium. Plus I stained my finger for the first time after pouring out the tube.

@Oly I added salt today, first day my pool was over 70 degrees. pH is normally 7.8 to 8.1 during the summer. Last year my CH was between 210-230.

Hello Everyone, I searched a bunch of threads on this topic but based on my pool log from today where should my sweet spot be for CH? I've also been looking at- Water Balance for SWGs - Trouble Free Pool and states 220-320 but What Are My Ideal Pool Levels? - Trouble Free Pool states 350-550...

Hi Everyone- My pool is opening today here in NJ and and a cold front is coming my way after tomorrow. I currently have a dummy pipe in place of my SWG, question is- should I put in my SWG and let the liquid chlorine run through? Any harm there? Weather temps are looking better next week and...

That worked! @YippeeSkippy

Moved from here. I'm bringing back this thread from long ago... 2017. I ordered a speed stir from amazon and received today but it doesn't work after putting in the batteries. I tested the batteries and they had charge so I tried another four batteries but no luck. I don't think I'm missing any...

Thanks!

Hello- I was wondering if Poly-Quat 60 is the same or comparable to Biodex Skill-It? Thanks, Jason
