I know what it is. It just said chlorine stabilizer and I didn't know looking at the ingredients would tell me it was CYA

So how long after adding chemicals can you retest too see if everything is within normal range or not?

It does. Thank you

The only stabilizer I can find his chlorine stabilizer is that the right stuff to use to raise CYA???

Okay that's what I thought it was. And I didn't worry about it because I thought someone had told me since it was a new pool I didn't need to test it right away. Thanks

What do you use to add stabilizer. Do you buy it from the pool store or what? And last year my CYA was the opposite that it is now. It was like 100 or something like that lol

So I just put up my brand new pool a week ago and added a gallon of bleach this morning (which I knew would make the chlorine really high but nobody will be in it for at least a week so figured that would be okay) and turned on the pump so I could test everything later today. Well I just tested...

Sooooo if you have read any of my posts over the last year you probably know that my swimming pool is surrounded by trees and I have found with them getting in my pool daily for a long time. Anyway I got a new pool last week and I decided that with that new pool I would get a cover too that way...

Oh okay.....well I would like to keep it saved to look back on if ever needed and $8 for a year....that's well worth it. Thanks!

Oh so when you said tracking temps you meant the temp outside and just the weather in general huh? I thought you meant tracking the temps of the pool water....hahaha Yeah I'm kinda new to this whole pool thing.....lol

Guess I'll need to get some kind of thermometer to check the temps then huh???? LOL

That is the one I was talking about. Thanks! I do like apps so I will probably try to the app but wanted the original one just in case....lol Also is the $8 a one time fee or a monthly fee? And what does it have that the basic one doesn't have? Thanks!

Your link took me to the current one.....the page that shows the app, not the old one. However KandTFromPhx that replied after you shared a link and it's the one from the original page I was talking about. I'm all into apps so I'm going to try the app but wanted to know if the original one was...

Okay last year there was a page on here that you could put in what your test results were and what your goal results were and it would tell you how much of something you need to add to reach your goal. I can't find that page now. Is it still available? I have seen where there is a new app you...

What do you mean start dissolving some CYA? Should I test the CYA first? And I use liquid bleach, so how much of that should I put in right off or should I test it first too? Thanks!

Soooooo since my old pool was old and NASTY and I had some extra money I just decided to get a new pool but since I've never done that before I was wondering do you have to SLAM a brand new pool or what all do you need to do.

So I have a couple questions. I'm thinking about getting a new pool and I am wondering which one everyone thinks is better. The metal frame ones or the easy set up ones? Also wanted opinions on pool heaters. Sadly my pool is near some trees and it doesn't get very much sunlight during the...

Looks like this is gonna be a LONG process. UGH!! Thank you VERY much to whoever told me to get a leaf bag. Soooooo much easier than a skimmer lol

Okay so what's the least amount I should leave in there

mknauss....question. Someone said not to drain all the water out. Advised to leave 12-18 inches in there but I'm wondering if it's a good idea to leave that much in it because that's where all the dirt rotted leaves and yucky stuff is at. If I leave that much water in there and then add water it...

Mknauss....so I don't have to do any scrubbing? Just doing The SLAM will clean everything off???

I know all that. But there is green and black stuff stuck to the walls. How or what do I use to clean that off?

So somehow my pool cover came off a little bit during the winter and now my pool is SUPER nasty. I'm currently draining ALL the water out and then I'm going to tackle scrubbing it clean. I'm wondering what is the best thing to scrub it with. There is nasty black and green slim on the sides of...

:wave::wave:

Hi.....haven't posted for awhile because sadly here in WV it's winter time but I'm thinking about buying a new pump and sand filter for the new swimming year and just had a few questions. I'm VERY new to the owning a pool world, last year being the first year and I asked alot of questions and...

So a pressure of around 3 is normal if everything else is working right? And when you say 25% do you mean 25% above the 3 or what?

So I got a new pressure gauge as suggested by someone on this site and even with the new gauge the pressure isn't reading very high. So do you think that it's just normal to read that low or do you think that something could be wrong with my sand filter? I did notice the last time I did a...
