Thanks for the reply Maddie. I've read the article when it first happened and it scared the heck out of me, specially that I have a toddler at home. I made several phone to find out where to get the feces tested to no avail. I ended up just having the little one not using the pool.

Hi there, I woke up this morning to some raccoon feces in my pool. I've had the pool maintenance guy take care of it the few times it happened before (I moved in 5 weeks ago and that's occurence #4) however I started maintain the pool myself so I need some guidance. My testing (Taylor 2006)...

Fill water is CH 100

Thanks a lot ? I'll report back after the tech visit. I doubt they will bring a cell with them, the guy over the phone said they'll have to order the part but again he's not the one coming out so who knows.

Thanks for the good news :) I was expecting that. Do you know if there is a way to tell which is not working? A tech is coming tomorrow, and I'd like to be informed before his visit.

Thank you James. Followed the steps you mentioned. I still get the low readings

CSI is -0.38 according to Poolmath. I'll test the fill water and report back

I believe it's a plaster pool. I know for sure it has diamond brite finish.

I just received my a Taylor 2006 test kit, reading the following: FC 3.2 CC 0 Ph 7.6 TA 120 CH 150 CYA 80 Water temp 76 My plan is to: Raise FC to 5 using liquid chlorine Lower TA to 80 Maybe raise CH to 350? Does that sound right?

The salt was added ~10days ago, it has since been vacuumed/brushed twice. I don't see a switch, the box is PL-P-4 model, serial 3L17277 The cell is T9 serial 3E17184

Thanks @kimkats

Thank you all for taking the time to reply. The SWG was off when salt was added, as a matter of fact it's always been off. The chlorinator never came on, it reads very low salt level. I should be receiving both the Taylor K-1766 and the 2006 today. I'll be testing the water and reporting...

Thank you @mknauss!!! Will do.
