    HELP pebble erosion due to shock?

    This might be the wrong thread here but I made a mistake. I put cal hypo packets of shock in my pebble pool and don’t brush it well. It was before a party and I just forgot. Now there are rust stains all over my deep end (but also in other places). Did I erode my pebble so badly that the rust is...

    Can I pour bleach directly into my hot tub?

    It spills over into my pool. Last weekend we had a party and had about 15 people in there (lots of kids). Yesterday we sat in it in the evening but forgot to put the pool back on pool mode. I need to get the chlorine way up in there. It was at 1 ppm this morning. Is it okay to add chlorine...

    Air stuck?!? Filter pressure reading is off!

    So this just means I for sure need to clean the filter ASAP huh? But you aren’t worried about the air thing?

    Air stuck?!? Filter pressure reading is off!

    This is how it was before. I used the manual vac when I finished my SLAM to get rid of any residual dead algae. But like I said, I sucked air into it for sure.

    Air stuck?!? Filter pressure reading is off!

    What does this mean? My black line is past my red one. I used a manual pool vac and attached it to my skimmer and I think air got sucked into the filter. Is this why this this is happening? Do I need to turn off my pump? I did that several days ago so I’m a little worried I’ve done damage to...

    SLAM with cal hypo?

    I can’t keep up. I’m not sure what in the world happened, but when this started I was losing chlorine very quickly. Then it tapered off. I have been checking, adding, and even mixing in the chlorine every two hours since Thursday! I have to add bleach almost every time and as of today at 6:45...

    SLAM with cal hypo?

    Lol. It’s late in the day and I’m so tired. Doubling and multiplying by .5 of course brings me back to the same number. Ha

    SLAM with cal hypo?

    Thank you for the great advice to use 5 ml. I assume I double this number and multiply that times .5. I ordered more FAS-DPD reagent. Amazon had a big bottle of it and (fingers crossed I don’t need that much), but I figured it would be better to have more on hand. My TF kit came with the...
