My pool is coming along, my chemistry is spot on and I have passed the ONCL test, however I am face with yet another problem I fear. My steps are discolored to the point that they might be unreparable. And my shallow end has the same stain, or so it seems. Soooooo I am asking is there...

I would like to add, and I am a novice. Duraleigh taught me the error of my ways, dont use a small hammer on this, head it with a sledgehammer. After he said this in one of my post I thought yeah right, but I had the bleach so I upped my game a bit and when I was suppose to put 16ppm in I went...

Whats typical, as in a 27000 gallon pool or does the size not realy matter, is it more the sun, as I am in 100% sun for the whole freaking day and we are having 90 degree days for the next 10 days, or should I say mi 90's

Thanks Jason, The precision of the test, when done correctly, is around plus or minus 15 for levels up to 90 and plus or minus 30 for levels between 100 and 200. Novices often have problems reading the test correctly, and tend to get higher than actual readings. I am a novice that is hooping 40...

Mainly worried about hopping in and doing a little vacuuming, at that high a reading. Jason Pool store says I am at 0 but I do the test and it looks around 40

Hey all, I am curious about my chlorine reading it is at 26 as I shocking with a sledgehammer, can I get in at that reading wanna get my feet and legs in to do some vacuuming in the shallow end, and I also have a problem under my cement on the shallow in, right before my steps that go into the...

Hey all, Its in the mid 90's today, and I am curious while in the clean up stage how much will this blistering heat take from my Chlorine reading , compared to a normal day when the water is crystal clear??? :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah:

40 is my reading for cya

OK guys after 5 hours in complete sun and hotter than all get out I have only lost 1 ppm, so looking at my last pics that I took with a camera, do you all think I should get my shock level back up and continue with this process or use the green to clean, please I do value all your opinions, more...

Yes I am and now for the pictures from the camera they are self explanatory I think but if not side pics shallow pics and deep as well dont be mad at me just wanna get in duh deep end and play

Those pics are with a cellphone gonna get a camera and see if they look any better for you all

the reason my chlorine reading is lower than shock level is green to clean needs you to start at 2.5 ppm I have been around 19-15 for over a week if that is not sledgehammer enuff sorry but dang walmart has cut me off

I am gonna try using green to clean as I do want to swim soon as in 2011 my latest num tc 9 cc.5 ph 7.5 alk 90 calc 110 cya 40

Hey, I can assure you that after having that PH where it is and if you get the chlorine up you can go over it with your hand and it will leave the vinyl lined pool, if that is what you have. Mine felt like sandpaper as well and listening to these folks here it got better quick. Still I have a...

Vacuumed some leaves out hopefully got most of them, ppm was 14 I bumped up to 20 for overnite. Hopefully the process will continue. However work tomorrow 12 hr shift 7a to 7p
