Thank you!!

The reagent was bad!! Now we are at 100. Darn it. We JUST had the pool filled. I really don't want to replace. Is there anything else I can do??

Because we were slamming, as the water was brand new.

They are not in the filter... we have done it this way before with no trouble. Also, we are not losing chlorine... wonder if the reagent is bad? In the test we did tonight, there was no cloudiness at all. Clear as day.

Hi all! We recently had to replace our pool, so we have brand new water. Crystal clear, CC is 0. FC is 22 currently. CYA was 0, so according to PoolMath we needed to add 48oz of stabilizer (crystals). Added to the skimmer, waited a few days, still 0. We just added the rest of the stabilizer...

We bought a timer for our pump but it kept tripping the circuit and turning off...any suggestions for a timer for our pump/SWG? Thanks

I really have no idea how it got so high. It's been high since we started testing. Have had no time to work on it yet, hoping to get to it this week.

Hello! Our pH is creeping up and our TA is off the charts. Pool math says to add Buame muriatic acid pr dry acid. We have a pool store product called pH reducer - is that the same thing? That is all the store had (they don't sell muriatic acid. If it's not the same thing, how do I know how much...

Mine dropped from 80 to 50. Pool is in the full sun, but we did have to replace some water because of a leak.

Ok. We have a slow leak. Yesterday I turned on the hose to add water and forgot about it, so I added more than I intended. Perhaps that is the culprit? If that is the case then should I still use the stabilizer?

With the Taylor test kit - the disappearing dot - rounding up it should be 50.

Hi all, Today when we tested the pool, the CYA was 48. It had been at 80, right where it should have been. Why would it have dropped? PoolMath says to add stabilizer, is that correct? Will that change other results? FC 7 CC 0 pH 7.8 TA 200 (I know this is high) CYA 48

After the kids swam yesterday, the pool is so clear! Finally! Thank you all.

Ha ha!

Good news!!! The FC stayed the same overnight!! The CC is 0!!! Party is on!!!! Except, after two weeks of 90 degree weather...today it is rainy. Ha ha ha. Of course. On to the next project...finding the leak.
