Fortunately, it's still under warranty. Figured there wasn't a user fix, but thought I'd check. Thanks :)

In many years of pool ownership we’ve never seen this: One of our two Pentair Microbrite lights has started flashing red tonight. The other one is its normal custom blue color. We’ve searched online and can’t find anything on this issue, so thought we’d put it out to the experts here to see if...

Thanks! Oops, that PH number was a typo. It was 8.2 :)

Been awhile since I checked in with numbers, so here's where I am this morning: FC 5.5 CC 0 PH 8.5 TA 70 CH 525 CYA 50 Temp is 89. So will be adding acid in just a bit, and have just put a sock of stabilizer in front of a jet. Does anyone see anything else that's too far out of whack? Thanks!

Ninety-one degrees, thanks to our Pentair Ultratemp :)

We have ospreys that nest a couple of streets over each year and we're always seeing them fly over with fish (ocean is three blocks away). I figure it's just a matter of time before we find a mullet or whiting in the pool!

Life is really good here in North Florida today. Air is 83 degrees, water is heated to 90. We can't believe our good fortune!

That has nothing to do with "taste." That's simply low-quality work.

Perhaps some more cross-linking within existing content? Example: While reading about alkalinity in Recommended Pool Chemicals, include a link to the alkalinity testing instructions page (and vice versa). Or ... maybe a short list of "Related links" at the bottom of some pages.

Hi there! Just did a full test of the water -- does anything jump out as needing immediate attention? Thanks in advance :) FC - 4.5 CC - 0 pH - 7.5 TA - 60 CH - 625 CYA - 55 CSI is at -0.34 Water temp is 61 F We're probably going to turn on the heater tomorrow since the air temps are forecast...

Mighty sparkly around here today. Looks like a natural spring! (And about as cold as one, too.)

Thank you, sir! This stuff is actually starting to make sense.

Just dropping by to share this morning's test numbers: FC 5 pH 8.0 TA 80 CH 650 CYA 65 CSI 0.46 Per Pool Math, I need to add just a little (8.8 oz.) of muriatic acid. Does such a small amount need to be diluted in a bucket of water first, or can I just pour it in there?
