    Hayward SWG - 0% chlorine

    Thanks so much! We do have the TF-100 test kit and will run all our own numbers today. What you are saying makes sense. We swim every day and so do the dogs haha. Appreciate the input!

    Small Tanning Ledge or none at all?

    We did rectangle too and I understand your constraints with the cover; we added a baja that juts out the side and we LOVE it. So glad we have one for relaxing, dogs and kids to play, etc.

    Cloudy Water

    The same thing happened to us yesterday! Told us to add acid and now it's wicked cloudy. I am getting advice on another thread, but very similar to your situation. So frustrating.

    Followed Leslie's instructions for new pool, water murky

    I just looked it up and the NPC guide is what is on the company website. Nobody even told us about this. Now I'm panicking! We are doing it ourselves.
