    MA addition

    TA usually sits at 70. May creep up to 80, but that's it. It seems that 70 is the sweet spot, and I've never seen it get below that. Fill water TA is 110. Sounds like it's better just to get the ph to 7.6.

    First time pool owner, went with the blue granite pebble sheen finish. The pool builder, who otherwise we have been very happy with, classified pebble sheen and plaster as completely different finishes, which I understand, but he then basically told me there was not any plaster in my pebble...
