It's not that I do not like SWGs it is just that it is not working as it did last year. I passed the ONCL. U will check for SWG scaling tomorrow. I checked last year and attempted cleaning but there was no reaction to the muriatic acid bath.

I understand. the "generally accepted fashion" would be the TFP method. Which I am sure you are completely aware of. While I do not know your background with pool chemistry and considering you have only been a member of TFP for a short time as have I am looking for more someone with more...

Re: Hate my SWG system. What should I replace it with? I am not using the SWG to "clean up" my waster. But thanks for the thoughts. - - - Updated - - - As i posted I did not have this issue last year. everything else is the same. - - - Updated - - - In the generally accepted fashion...

While I do not hate my SWG and am using the Water Balance for SWG found on TFP. It seems that everyday I add 4.5 ( 36 oz) cups bleach. I have been told that my IC20 is to small for my 17,100 gal pool. I had no trouble last year. the only difference this year is that I had "green pool"...

based on the TFP "Water Balance for SWGs" my FC goal is 5 this process recommends between 4 and 6. I have made a change to run time and %. As always I monitor my chems until nirvana is reached. I am saving for new IC Thanks

I am trying to set my IC 20 to produce the correct amount of chlorine and need to know how much chlorien is produced in 4 hours as this is my pump time running from 10pm to 2am Ph = 7.8 FC = 5 TC = 5 CC = 0 CYA = 80 TA = 90 Temp = 82 degrees F I am using the "Water Balance For SWGs"...

Thank you. i will soldier on with current slamming processes and do the over night. I am testing water now as no sun shines on the pool now.

Thank you. The wife is very much wanting to get in the pool very soon, next day or 2. Anything to get clear water without fibers, etc? Some type of Clarifier? I am going to do the over night test tonight and see where we are. Thanks,

The water is actually very clear. not crystal clear with some minor cloudiness. So it is best to just keep sweeping and vacuuming and testing via FAS-DPD and adding bleach until water is crystal clear? I have a K-2005 and FAS-DPD Thanks - - - Updated - - - Someone suggested I use DE to...

I have been slamming my pool since 5/25/17 You will see that my CYA is 70, a mistake on my part, but the water is clear yet the FC continues up and down as does the CC. Should I just let the filter catch up or? Here are the latest chem numbers: 5/25/17 2pm Ph = 7.6 FC = 0 CYA = 0 added...

Slamming pool for first time Hello, Hope you are enjoying the holiday weekend. Here are the latest chem numbers: 5/26/17 8:06p FC = 8 CC = .5 added 5 jugs 8.25% bleach to reach slam goal of 31 5/27/17 6:33a FC = 26 CC = 9 7:00a added 1 jug of 8.25% bleach 12:30p FC =...

I have not run OCLT as it was my understanding that it would be done once the pool water was clear. Thanks, - - - Updated - - - I posted: I have just checked FC =8 cc=.5 cya successfully raised to 40 I will add the CH and CYA to raise to 50 and check in A.M. Thanks. Hello...

Hello, I thought I was helping my FC as we have much sunlight beating down on the pool from sunup to sundown. If this is not the case and I have most likely gone to CYA of 50 and still using my FC goal on 12 should I adjust my SLAM to take care of the new CYA? If so how do I do that or should...

I have just checked FC =8 cc=.5 cya successfully raised to 40 I will add the CH and CYA to raise to 50 and check in A.M. Thanks.
