    Leaving for ten days--advice?

    The family is leaving tomorrow for 10 days. If no one is able to add chlorine while we're away, what should I do tonight/tomorrow morning to prepare? My cya is 30, so slam level of FC is 12. I added enough liquid chlorine tonight to bring the FC up to 9, but I planned to add 3-inch trichlor tabs...

    Is 2100 ok for pump 24/7?

    I set my Pentair VS pump on 2100 for 24 hours a day. Is that an appropriate setting for summer in Indiana with an auto cover that’s always closed unless we’re swimming?

    Just did my first TF Pro Test! Suggestions?

    199 CYA even possible?!

    I’m trying to convert a friend to the TFP method. Leslie’s test just came back with a cya reading of 199! Is that even possible? Wouldn’t she not be able to hold chlorine if it were that high? And how did hardness magically drop from 175 to zero in a week? Image 6405 is today. 6332 is 8 days...

    Just did my first TF Pro Test! Suggestions?

    My test kit came today, and I have my first results! What advice do you have for me going forward? I planned to add a gallon of muriatic acid to lower the alkalinity and aerate a lot to keep the pH stable, then continue to add liquid chlorine at night and monitor chlorine daily. One question: If...
