Nope, was put in my garage for storage. Would never leave chlorine outside. Thanks for the replies, but I'm still baffled at what's going on?

Okay, so this would mean it's from 2023 and from May, correct?

Reagents are brand new from last year, with a late 2023 expiration date. Yes, pump running 24/7 on low speed. Last year I ran it on high speed and my electric bill was nuts. I run it on high for 1 hour after I pour chlorine in, then switch to low speed. Chlorine is brand new from ocean state...

Hey all, well.... I'm at it again. Opened to a crystal clear pool, wife helped me take off winter cover. I totally messed up and let a huge chunk of debris from the cover in the pool. Pool went from crystal clear to cloudy blue. I'm very familiar with the SLAM process, as I did it last year. I...

Thank you for this! Bees and wasps, were not bad last year. We did get some weird purplish blue wasps. Besides that, it was these Dang tiny sweat bees. We couldn't float around for more then an hour before getting stung. I'm still doing my due diligence. Hopefully it's a better outcome this year.

Thank you for the informative response, appreciate it! You're probably right about the borates not helping much. I may use it for the SWG cell, as you mentioned. We get "regular" bees as well that are not aggressive. However... These tiny sweat beas are extremely aggressive. The minute they...

100% sweat bees. They land in the water and then grab onto anything they can. Float, stairs, my wife and I! Then they sting, It's a pretty nasty sting. My wife and I like to use mesh floats and just relax. They latch on to the mesh, then sting. It got to the point, we couldn't enjoy our pool...

Yes Boric Acid, thank you!

I have heard of this method. Although, I have not tried it. Thank you for the response 👍

Wow, no replies?

Hey all, it's been a very busy fall/winter. Wife and I have a disabled child, so I've been MIA for reasons just mentioned. So... Last year I went SWG (circupool RJ 45+) with our AGP. 27' ft Round, 18,000 Gallon Saltwater 8000 Running a 2 Speed 2HP pump. 190sqft Cartridge filter. It was the...

Anyone?

Thank you for the detailed response, greatly appreciated! I will say, this "potion" worked very well last year. With that being said, I'm not using it this year, as I'm not comfortable putting it in saltwater. As I type this, I have my Dolphin cleaning the pool. Going to take the ladder out. I...

Hey all, I have researched some past threads about using this to close my above ground pool. I used this last year without a issue. Opened to a crystal clear pool in the early spring. However... I have read that this is not good for a pool that's saltwater? I have the CircuPool RJ45+. Honestly I...
