    More Patience???

    Thanks...I was wondering about the CYA being so low if that could have any effect on the slam.....I've got 2 gallons of stabilizer coming today. So I'll just continue the slam for another couple of days after adding the stabilizer.

    More Patience???

    Do I need to be more patient and let the sand filter do its job? I have never had the problem trying to clear up my water as I do right now. I've deep cleaned the sand filter, added 100 pounds of sand and have been slamming for the past 3 days. Brushing 2 time a day and running my robotic...

    Is my Aquarite T-9 Dead???

    Opened the pool a couple weeks ago and got everything cleaned and was is the process of balancing the water.... My motor was starting to make a fair amount of noise so I ordered bearing for a rebuild. The pump has not been in service for the last 6 days. Here are my test results right before...

    6 day vacation coming... recommendations?

    I'm not sure if others would agree but when I go away I increase my pump run time from 7hrs to 10hrs and also increase my salt generator from 35% to 55%. Typically my FC will raise during this period.

    Fiberglass Pool Build Southeast PA

    I have my timer set to run the pump twice a day for a total of 10 hours. I have the salt output set to 40% but during the hottest times I'll bump it up 50%. When the system shows the salt cell needs cleaning, which is based on run hours programmed into the unit, I plug 1 end and fill with...

    Fiberglass Pool Build Southeast PA

    We have zero regrets...except not doing it sooner...haha... The best investment so far has been the TF-100 kit. I also learned this past year that I need to remove the underwater lights and clean behind them early in the season after the water is balanced.....I had algae hiding there this...

    Closing with water temp above 60f

    I'm further up north in Maryland. My pool has been staying around mid 60's for about the past 6 weeks. About the first of Oct, when leaves started falling I made sure my pool was balanced then brought it up to shock level. I brushed and put cover on. I have been running the filter and swg, but...

    Algae again - no clue where to go from here....

    Have you pulled out the lights and checked behind them? I had algae return a couple of weeks after a slam and when I removed my light I was amazed at what I found hiding behind...... Dave
