Okay, news to report. I didn't add any liquid chlorine yesterday. FC dropped to 20 at 3:30 p.m.. This morning the pool was absolutely filthy. Yesterday was the first day that we allowed any floats back in the pool so I assume we got reinfected. I'm going to throw them all out. What's...

The app did work for a day or two before it started with these issues

Yes, it just upgraded the other day. I did try saving logs, not sure where to find them on my phone

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, now the app closes immediately after I try to open it. Android BTW. Pixel 6 Pro. Android 14, build AP2A.240605.024

Well now it won't let me sign in. Says " something went wrong siding in. Please try again"

Everything I try results in an error message: Uh oh! Did your phone go swimming I can't log anything.

Happy 4th! Found more stuff in the pool when I went to vacuum about an hour later. More than the day before. Yesterday I was seeing high CC, 1.5! Today it's been at 1, though just dropped to 0.5. I honestly am stumped. I don't have confidence in the test results. I think I am going to...

I vacuumed last night, and am letting the FC drop. FC this AM is 26.5. I still have a CC of 1.0. This morning I found a couple of small dark brown spots at the creases in the pool floor liner, but I think they are organics not algae. The area is heavily wooded so we get lots of tree stuff...

So I passed the OCLT test on Monday Night/Tuesday morning. On Tuesday after I got home from work I found some algae (dead?) on the pool bottom. Today it has been clean so far. CYA might have been 30 this whole time. I hadn't checked in several weeks.

Yes, it is. Just checked, my CYA is actually at 30. I know it's a subjective test, so I am planning on trying again.

I just got in and brushed the pool floor. It was clean, water is crystal clear. Going to do my CYA test now.

Ha FC just went from 31 to 24.5 in 1.5 hours.

Update: Tested at 28 FC at 9:04 AM Added 52 oz liquid chlorine @ 9:14 AM Tested at 25.5 FC at 10:19 AM Added 69 oz liquid chlorine @ 10:24 AM I wonder if the CYA is lower than 50. We had a couple of rain days since I last checked. Sure seems like the FC is dropping extremely fast. This...

OK, I'm not feeling like this FAS/DPD Chlorine Test is giving consistent results. Tested at 28 FC at 5:06 AM Added 48 oz of liquid chlorine @ 5:17 AM Tested at 31.5 FC at 5:28 AM Added 16 oz FC at 6:52 AM Tested at 30 FC at 7:47 AM Added 24 oz liquid chlorine @ 7:50 AM Added 16 oz liquid...

This morning I ran the test before reading your post. The FC came at 24.5, a drop of 5.5! CC was 1.5?? I didn't believe it. So I reran the test. This time I sampled water from elbow deep, and I gave it more of a heaping scoop of the powder. FC came back at 28, CC at 0.5. I'm not sure I...

Got home to algae on the bottom. I couldn't see it from the sides of the pool or deck, but once I got in to vacuum I found it. In the center of the pool where most of the debris collects, there was some algae that looked kind of like dust. There were also probably three to five other small...

I use the TFTestkits FAS/DPD Chlorine Test Kit. There is some variation in the amount of powder I use, but I use a pipette to measure the volume of pool water. One other possibility I just thought of - I recently stopped taking water samples by reaching down into the pool as far as I can...

Passed the overnight test - FC drop of 0.5, and 0 CC. I'm not sure if I'm dealing with mustard or regular algae, so I am continuing with the extra high shock level for 24 hours. Here's my question - I tested at 6 AM at 26.5 FC. Pool math says to get to 30 FC I needed to add 59 oz of bleach...

I pulled the trigger on a Confer Plastics ladder, which is filled with sand: Amazon.com SLAM still in progress. Kept the FC level over 20 all day long, vacuumed and brushed the pool in the morning and evening. But still had a 3 FC drop overnight with CC of 1. Will keep at it today. The pool...

Just got home to a filthy pool. Algae (dead?) all over the bottom. I spent about an hour vacuuming and it looks great. Now I need to get my SLAM going. Any recommendations for ladders? I would like a solid ladder, no filling with water. Can aluminum coated work with the swg?

Appreciate it! Is it safe to swim in at the moment? Current FC this morning was 16, with CC of 0.5.

Thanks. I've read that before, but I still am not sure if I have mustard algae or just the regular kind.

So I unfortunately haven't been able to be consistent with the SLAM since last Friday. I've been trying to keep my FC up around 20, but it's hard since I am at work all day. I was home all day Wednesday and was able to test and add shock every 2 hours. There were some big drops over 2 hours -...

SWG FC = 7 CC = 0 TA = 40 CYA= 50 PH = 7.4

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong. This happened last year as well. I just opened the pool, and did my initial clean with the vacuum. The very next day I've got brown gunk on the pool floor again. Not as much, probably 30% of what it was. Is there a issue with the way I'm vacuuming...

That's what she said? :ROFLMAO:

Thanks for the response. I mentioned that it was plumbed correctly because when I did my research before posting, the number one cause of cracks was reversed plumbing. The very first thing I did was check to make sure it was plumbed correctly. More background: My pool installer erected the...

100% positive this was plumbed correctly. I installed myself and confirmed. In addition, the outside of the filter would not have all of the pine droppings on it if it were backwards. Not at home and don't have photos of it at the moment. Filter is CircuPool CJ-2750 Cartridge Filter. Pump...
