    OK. Added. Pool temperature is currently 77 degrees. I'll check in an hour. When do I add liquid chlorine? Do I wait and test my numbers in an hour or keep working on CYA then add chlorine?

    Ok. I read the thread articles and saw the pictures. I can find something to put it in and hang in the pool.

    OK. I just added the Muriatic Acid to lower the pH. Do I wait and then put the stabilizer in next? I don't have a skimmer sock. My skimmer does have one on there already though. Here's a pic or should I find something and put in the actual pool

    OK. I just came back with chemicals. I read before I use CYA that I should clean the filter is that true. Also my pool equipment has something to put in dichlor I believe. Is that for Calcium Hardness. Here's what I bought. I'll go check equipment. You mentioned using a sock near return so...

    Agree so I'm really trying to figure out what happened or how it could happen.

    There's definitely a small leak. You can see the weeping when the pool was empty. Hopefully they find it. Texas has thunderstorms all day today and rain tomorrow so monitoring

    I think I have several places but just been told that it's rain and the rain was sitting. I assumed the grass was rotting in those areas from the rain sitting for long periods.

    Yes. After the SLAM I held the rain pretty good. I think the drainage issues or whatever was going on was still affecting the pool. The house flooded near the walls of my bedroom and breakfast nook and now all the baseboards are peeling from the wall. I was about ready to rip out the whole pool...

    Here's the numbers from the test I just did I don't have enough Muriatic Acid so will need to get more of that and whatever else. I think I've been more frustrated because this pool has been a lot. I'm coming up on having it one year. They finished on May 17th but had issues so it wasn't ready...

    OK. Thanks. Just got home and I can test. The pump is OK. My pool builder was scheduled to come to the house to address drainage issues after I took pictures and videos from the storm. I left Wednesday morning at 5am. They came out Thursday afternoon and said the pool was empty and they thought...

    Hello TFP Family I had some issues with heavy rain in my pool. Went out of town for my daughter's college graduation. Before I left I put 2 chlorine tablets in the chlorinator. When I came back 5 days later my pool was completely empty. Pool Builder is saying the top may have not been screwed...
