Thank you for the kind feedback on this spreadsheet. Initially the intention was to help visualize some of the trends/patterns with my swimming pool while learning to apply the TFP method, never as an alternative to the Pool Math application. Applying the TFP method to my swimming pool has...

Happy to send, can you send me your contact information in a private message?

Celebrating the beginning of the end for a brutal Houston pollen drop. All told I’d estimate 50-70 gallons worth of pollen debris removed from the pool via skimmers, robot and net skimming. Still looks great with TFP!

My understanding is that test strips can also be degraded if not stored properly.

Multiport valve gasket leak?

Well it got to 7.8 today, but there was a hit on the TA (moved 80 to 70). I am just going to chill a bit in trying to oversteer the PH until the plaster ages more. 👍 Pick the right battles as they say.

24 hour trial of the sock! 🤦🏻‍♂️These are pretty cool, will continue to use them on the front lines.

They included the cost and installation of the decorative tiles in the re-plaster estimate and unfortunately did not break out that cost as an individual line. We used traditional white plaster (like the color and feel) which is relatively "low cost" compared to other pool surfaces.

As long as the pool pump is running the spillover is running, would need to be reconfigured to isolate. Good input regarding the PH, probably need to not hit it so hard (which I did tonight unfortunately, wanted to see if I could make it go to 7.6).

This remains to be seen.....Check out the PH on PoolMath log.....so I do have a spillover from spa to pool. I added 11 -12 oz last night. At a TA of 80, almost acting like PH bounce. It wants to stay nailed near 7.9-8.0. Obviously new plaster is probably not helping. Going to try and not...

@Berger82 @kimkats Picked up a few socks yesterday and going to try them out!

Once the heat really settles in and I really understand the daily FC burn I’ll probably switch to the 10ML sampling. 👍

I haven’t tried using skimmer socks. Good suggestion to try during pollen season.
