    Liquid chlorine before leaving for 4 days?

    Thanks for the help. I do have some tabs but no floater. (Just removed my in-line chlorine device, it was leaking)

    Pool party (kids) pool went slightly cloudy by end of day?

    loosing a bit (2ppm yesterday) of chlorine still overnight but i also checked at 6pm and not 9pm when the sun is down. my pool gets sun from 10am to sundown every day. We were also in it for an hour after testing so I'm pretty sure we are clear.

    Pool party (kids) pool went slightly cloudy by end of day?

    Started a slam now but my water went a bit cloudy by end of day for todays pool party for my 6 year old. Is it somewhat normal for an all day splash to use enough to go bad that quickly? I had been maintaining fc at lower end of acceptable but added a few extra litres of chlorine in advance...

    Another pool store vs home testing thread

    Arizona? Does it get to freezing? Put the pipes in your wall and then attic. Or have a valve to top off your rainwAter system that you flip when your watering to top off the tank. Dilute the salt into rainwater.

    Change suction line on inground?

    Currently my system has quite a bit of pipe and the losses in the system mean I need to run the pump at 3/4 speed for the heater not to boil the water. Need to run min 2500rpm but would need to run 2700rpm to get some headroom on the superpump VS 1.65hp. I've also moved the location of the...

    Change suction line on inground?

    Is it possible with my in ground vinyl pool to change skimmer suction line without getting into concrete work? I will call the PB later this week to ask their thoughts as well. Currently I have a single 1.5” line to my pump. Considering some plumbing alterations to use 2” to the skimmer and...

    Is this a filtering issue? Cloudy water

    What sanitizer are you using. I just used some calhypo this week when I needed a liquid refill and it fogged up just from that. Went away about 24h later.
