Also, my SLAM level is 12 and this morning I was only down to 10.5! *happy dance* 😄

I did this all thorough the day the last 2 days. I tested every 2 to 3 hours and kept my chlorine at SLAM level. I also cleaned my cartridge filter each night. This morning I can see the bottom! It's still cloudy but the progress is obvious! Being able to see where the pine needles are on the...

Wondering if I should raise my CYA up to 40? Took my chlorine up to SLAM level of 12 at 10am. 4-1/2 hours later and it was down to 6. Is that too fast?

You're right to be suspicious! There may have been some user error involved lol! I'm not sure where I went wrong or if I did the CC test incorrectly but I will say that some factors have changed and my results are completely different today. First of all, I had 25 ml of water rather than 10 ml...

My numbers according to my at home test are: FC 8 CC 8 TA 90 CYA 30 (stopped being able to see it around where 25 is so rounded up) PH 7.5 I didn't test Calcium hardness because I don't have much need without a heater. Thanks for the help!

Ok, I shall return with quality numbers shortly!

I do! I have the TF 100. Should I rerun all the numbers myself?

Hi guys! I might be over thinking my water situation so I'm hoping for a little help. My water is blue but remains cloudy. I can't see the bottom. How do I clear it up? I have a 13,500 vinyl above ground pool, working off a Hayward cartridge filter. My numbers are as follows: FC 8.4 CC 8.4...

My files seem to be too large to upload, I've got to play with them and see if I can attach, but I may have figured out the issue! My water level went down as I cleaned the filter cartridge numerous times and was hovering close to the bottom of the skimmer. I've added about an inch of water so...

I'm having a problem with my pump and filter not actually pumping the water. It's trickling from the pool into the pump skimmer and not pushing much out. I have taken it apart and cleaned all my baskets and the cartridge filter and still no luck. I also can't find any clogs in the hoses. I'm...

Oh, she is going to love to hear that!

My plan today is to stay at SLAM levels. I'll brush and vacuum again, clean off my filter and keep going until tonight. I'll do the overnight test and see where I stand in the morning. Keep your fingers crossed it's ready for tomorrow, please! Keeping my 11 year old out of it until is proving...

How gorgeous is this?!?! Still have a little bit of crud to get off the bottom but I can actually SEE the bottom through crystal clear water!
