    Another SLAM question

    thank you for the reply. I have a Taylor K2006. I am using the FAS-DPD. I fill the vial up to the 10mL (as it says I can do), then add the 2 dippers of powder, 0870.

    Another SLAM question

    But that's what Im saying. I cannot even get to 24. I'm at 12.5. How can I get to 24? I have read the SLAM page many times and will review again. There is a few leaves in my polaris 280. I guess I could get that out, but it's not significant amount. Otherwise not a drop of anything in the pool...

    Hello! Another Texan in north Dallas area

    Hey folks! I'm here to learn more since we just got our 20 year old pool, 15K gallon in-ground refurb'd. I probably should of been here before we started, but now it's over. I barely trust my current pool maintenance company, and they might be closing soon anyways... so the pool might become...
