Hi there! Ordered what I thought was the correct diverter for the below valve but what came didn’t have a hole in the bottom to sit on the pin in the valve itself- I’ve searched and searched but I’m not sure the model and most pictures in the descriptions don’t show if it has a hole at the...

Ok, as always, thank you so much!

My pool is 24,000 gallons so that’s 3 lbs of baking soda correct?

Hi! I’ve been doing very well this summer after slamming initially. noticed my ph dropped from 7.4 to 6.8 over the last couple of weeks. Tc was steady at 4. Found some algae growing today on my light after two days of heavy rains. I use pucks but keep liquid on hand to raise when needed. After I...

Ok but that being said, I forgot to turn my chlorinator back on- so no chlorine went in. Considering temp (80 degree day & full sun) and having just completed a slam- should my fc have dropped from 12.5 8pm Thursday to 5.5 at 5pm Friday? That’s my concern. Is that too fast of a drop ?

I did pass all 3. But was still in the habit of testing that I checked overnight last night for good measure. By chlorinator I mean the inline Hayward chlorinator I put tabs in.

Hi. I didn't turn on the chlorinator yesterday after thinking i completed the slam and i just let the fc drift down. i checked this am at 4am and fc was 10.5 that was a 2 ppm drop from 820 last night. i let it go all day without adding or turning chlorinator on(80 degrees , full sun all day...

I apologize- I keep meaning to log it but I have been jotting it down and just keeping track that way. Working from home & home schooling I’m lucky I can keep track at all! So with my 30 cya- I shouldn’t be concerned losing fc like I have during the day? From here I should let the fc drift...

Ok so - I did well yesterday and my OCLT from 10pm til 4am was 1ppm. (Sorry keep forgetting to log in the app) but my pool is in full sun and has been 75-80 degrees out the last 2 days. So I thought I was done since I hit all 3 criteria but then so far today I have this 10pm tues Fc-13 Cc-0...

Hi! during slam process we decided to remove the light (which we had not tested yet this summer or turned on the breaker for it) turns out the housing was filled with water/part that bulb screws into all rusted as well. Took it out, emptied water and also found that the back of the fixture had...

Thank you. I finally feel like I’m getting somehwere! Thank you!

Hi again. Looking for some reassurance that I’m on the right path. After not being able to get more reg bleach I went to pool store and got 2 5g buckets of 12.5 % & Friday at 4 I switched to that and off I went. My slam fc is 12 so I added the appropriate amount after every reading that dropped...
