Do you know the height from the paver to top of the pool. I have a height specific build. Thanks

Oh yeah I can read the year on a quarter lol she hasn't left the pool since I have her the ok

Niiiiice. Still think the pool is filtering still gets clearer everyday, thanks to everyone who helped.

For anyone following this thread. Final results :)

I was you 14 days ago literally today. Had a party in my pool today. I had at least 300 tadpoles. 2 trash bags of leaves, the big trash bags. Frogs at least 3 inches at a minimum. Couldnt see an inch into the water. Nothing happened for 6 days straight. Today crystal clear water and about 10...

I backwash in the morning and evening. I'm about to go home and vac all the gunk out now that I can see. Probably gonna lay off the backwash till it needs it. Pressure has been good just backwashing to clear out. Read it does better a little dirty.

Well we have a bottom!!! Lost 1 FC last night with .5 CC. The foam was air bubbles. I had a leak on the skimmer hose. Once I could see I saw the air bubbles screaming out so tracked it down. This forum is the best

Mine was like yours when I started minus I had pump and filter. Stay the course when you start slamming. I had my doubts I'm day 13 in, but it will work goodluck

Yes I let it over night once pretty much filtered nothing lol. Was down 5 FC and now CC us at 1 but clear progress daughter is pretty excited.

I will try again this weekend if it isnt cleared up. But I used like a teaspoon and it pressured up within 5 minutes. Making great progress now just tested water for the last time tonight: FC: 21.5 CC: .5 (was barely pink so I called it .5 instead of 0) pH: 7.2 (I know not accurate) TA: 160 CH...

DE was a no go for me. I tried and tried and within 5 mins was no pressure at return. Unless there is really that much stuff its catching.

Ok, so water is now blue!!!!!! FC dropped got it back up and CC is at 1.0 now. May have been off on count of my drops daughter was bugging me asking if she could swim yet. Finally got my refills in so I will be testing again in about 2 hours. So once my CC is at .5 can I floc it? I know you...

Goodluck on your sale

Yeah with the site down it was taking forever to research. I got a Cu Lator gonna see in 4 days if it works. Update for this morning though. Visibility is getting better and better everyday. It's now a blueish green. Sand filter is pumping out the most gunk I've seen yet. Guess it's a matter...

Also went to the pool store to get a test on everything that my kit doesnt. They said I had 1.0 ppm copper small amount of iron and high phosphates. Do I need to take action on any of this or keep on with the bleach. Which I'm almost 30 bottles in.
