Anyone try to use stakes like the ones used for dogs to tie down a ag pool cover instead of the winch or hanging bleach jugs? First time covering the pool and not sure exactly which way to go.

Just want to thank everyone on the forum for your help. Pool has been running steady with no issues. All levels have stayed in check so far through the summer. Maintain my FC at 5-6 and CC never higher than .05.

Thanks for the replies everyone

Okay. So raise my FC level 5 ppm higher than my current SWCG level. And when you say check after to see if you are in range: are you referring to my original SWCG/CYA chart range correct.

So the pool has been running nicely for the past three weeks. Weather has been pretty cold and rainy so I haven’t got in the pool as of yet. Wife went in for a dip once. Lol My levels have been steady at: PH 7.6 FC 5.6 CC 0 Alk 60 Cal 60 CYA 80 I’m having a bbq and a few friends are planning...

Got it. Thanks for the info

Yes. Daily testing. Trying to check daily to get my swg/FC in the right settings/timer. Okay will try testing in morning instead. I have been testing daily around 530pm but while pool/swg running

Pool has been running pretty smooth Current levels are PH 7.6 FC 5.4 Alk 60 Cal 60 CYA 80-90. Testing CYA is tricky. Do you measure until the dot is completely gone or almost gone. Salt 4000

Does it make a difference in testing FC with the swg on or off? Thanks

Thanks for the info. Yes the swg is on the same timer but will leave off. Will update with pics later today

Okay guys. Was finally able to install liner over the weekend and has been filling up. By the time I get home it should be ready to get fired up. I have been reading trouble frees guide to swg. Just want to confirm that I should add the salt first to my swg recommended level. But can I add the...

Thanks for reply. I also thought swg and adding chlorine would be a thing

Just curious if the swg needs to be powered off when adding chemicals such as muriatic acid/chlorine/baking soda? Was reading my circupool manual but nothing stated.

Found a old thread on this site with a similar type of pool as me and he explains how he did it and how it passed inspection. Best part is that he located in NY so if it’s good for the inspector, it’s good for me. This site is great
