Understood...I guess I'm just struggling to figure out what changed. I've had this pool for 3 summers, this spring we re-plastered and now the massive and rapid scaling. It feels like they have to be related, to me, but maybe not.

Will do on lowering TA. With my current levels over the last two weeks, does it seem probable that the amount of scaling occurred as seen in the pics?

Correct, which is why I am so confused. I added 25lbs of of calcium chloride on June 15 in an effort to raise my CSI slightly because I'd read here that can help slow the pH rise in new plaster pools. I added it the way I've always done, in the deep end and then brushed. I took a closer pic of...

Hey guys, I am having an issue with calcium build up (I think) in my t-cell. Before I get to that, some quick info: I had my entire pool replastered this spring. My PB did a 30-day acid treatment to start up and handed it over to me in June. Since then I've brushed, maintained pH as best I can...

SLAM update: Even more convinced the Jack’s is messing with something… My pool is fairly shaded…tested at 7:16pm last night and FC held at 24 from a 6pm addition of chlorine. Pool was losing plenty of FC while sunny, drop stopped once sun was off the pool. At 8:30pm FC still at 24 (so I was...

Thanks so much! In the meantime, I've started a SLAM just to be safe...here are my updated numbers from this morning, pre-SLAM (some of the numbers last night were a few weeks old so I retested everything this morning): FC-8 CC-0 PH-7.4 TA-70 CH-350 CYA-60 Salt—3000

Hi all, I recently used about a quart of Jack’s Magic Power Blue Scale Off to remove scale from my pool tiles (it worked well.) Since then, I’ve noticed either a massive increase in FC demand or it’s affecting the tests. I’ve seen that other Jack’s Magic products can cause issues with FC...

Thanks!

Quick question, just had a TCell940 added to my system. I'm trying to configure pool math and I am gettin conflicting info so I wanted to verify here. What is the daily chlorine output? Some places say 1.47 lbs per day while others say it's 1.74 lbs per day. Thanks!

The only acid I have on hand is muriatic acid. Would that work?
