    What's the final word on the quikrete sand?

    Sorry to keep bringing this back up but I’ve been meaning to share this picture. Here is the size of the Quikrete I got. I wish I knew what I know now. But I had no idea there would be this significant of a difference. I wasn’t going for the cheapest sand I was simply buying what was available...

    This is 2 days after vacuuming. Brand new filter & sand was slowly added in so no damage to laterals. Backwashed & rinsed before use.

    What's the final word on the quikrete sand?

    I currently have Quikrete pool sand in my intex filter. It’s terrible! Within 2 days of vacuuming my pool has a significant amount of sand on the pool floor right below the return. Unbelievable! This weekend I’ll be taking apart my filter & replacing the sand [emoji31]

    CYA by weight

    I use poolmath (LOVE it!) but I only see grams, kilo, oz, & pounds as options so I assume it’s all by weight since there isn’t a fluid oz option. And I bought measuring cups specifically for my pool stuff [emoji16]

    CYA by weight

    Hi all! I’m brand new to the pool world & so glad I found TFP! Anyways I’m wondering if you all actually weigh the dry stabilizer or is there some sort of conversion chart? In my silly rush to add it to the new pool yesterday I did 34 oz of volume (not weight) of the dry stabilizer. It got me to...
