What type of SWG would you recommend that I buy? I want to run the pump for 8-12 hours a day, during the day.

Thank you everyone.

Hello! I've been sailing after switching over to BBB three weeks ago and getting my test kit. My new test numbers are: FC 6.0 CC < 0.5 pH 7.5-7.6 TA 70 CH 300 CYA 55 My chlorine has been pretty good, but with full sunshine and long hours in the pool, I can lose around 3ppm a day. That's...

Re: First Time Poster - Could Use Help - Day 5 tests. PICS U Thanks! No not far from a store, but am thinking about acquiring larger, more potent varieties for this job. Can you use calcium hypochlorite as your sanitizer as well?

Re: First Time Poster - Could Use Help - Day 5 tests. PICS U Actually, my pressure gage is broken. I'm replacing it today, and will have to clean filters to get a clean reading. I want CYA to get a bit lower, so am going to change water one last time. I will probably get to shocking tomorrow...
