Thanks so much for your help. Will follow the advice but if you have time, could you help me understand why my approach wasn't effective? Just trying to learn 🙂

My test is FC 8, CC 0, CYA 0, PH 7.8 (will add muriatic acid for this as I have to weekly), and I didn't test CH. We use SWG for chlorine and I have lowered the output to 20% (thinking about turning it to 0% if the chlorine level keeps so high). My confusion is if CYA is needed to hold...

I have the TF-Pro test kit and because I still feel the need to cross check my test results, I took the water into Leslie's. The last time I added Chlorox chlorine stabilizer was several months ago. This was the only brand I could find at the time. I'm a bit confused though because if I...

Hello - I've been maintaining the water since we installed our pool (1.5 yrs) trying to follow TFP methodology. For the past month, the FC has been 7-8 and I've lowered the SWG to 20% but the FC hasn't come down. We would like to heat the pool to swim but I'm not sure if it's safe; do I need to...

Our PB had the EasyTouch 4 in the initial plan and when I advised that I wanted independent control of the pool lights, spa light, bubbler light, sheers, bubblers, spa blower and have capacity for future landscaping lights, he said we would need the ET8. (We did not further upgrade to the...

I went to take a better look and how everything will be flowing. It looks like the inline is the last thing the water will flow through and then returns. So your recommendation is to make sure there is a way to bypass the inline, right?

When we decided to go with SWG, I told the PB that I didn't want the inline chlorinator and he said, you'll still need it. So I then researched a bit more and was convinced that we would need it if the SWG ever failed. Also, we're getting Pebble Tec and it states that it cannot be salt water...

Our equipment was just installed (feels like we're making progress on the build - woohoo!) But the front of the heater is facing the house which will make reading the panel very difficult. I'm also not sure if it's configured correctly. Any advice? TIA!

Thanks for sharing! If they have a true reason that they cannot because of the spillway being lower then I'm going to see if they can build similar to yours. The whole point of having the rolled edge is for comfort so why would I only want comfort in half the spa 🤷‍♀️

Thank you all for sharing. I was hoping to see if someone had any spillways that are also rounded but maybe it really doesn't exist...

We added the "rolled edge" after we agreed on this design so we didn't get an updated visual. I love how your spa has the rolled edge all the way around. Just haven't seen any pics of rolled edge with a spillway like mine. 😔
