Okay I am back! Things are looking really good here, numbers all staying where we want them. Water looks pretty good, okay great. The only thing is a bit of junk I need to vac since my heebie jeebie is still of the fritz, I have had to manual vac this whole time since he seems to have a mind of...

Re: Its all about CYA I have my numbers right where they need to be. So you are saying I should be able to maintain perfect numbers with a SGW running at 30%. I had it running high as I was trying to come back from a bad fall and algae nightmare, now all numbers are good and I feel it is time...

You are right about the 5 reading. She said anything over 5 they cant read, but that anything over 10 the test would fail. I am very pleased to have any FC. I will go ahead and shock tonight as well, if it cant do any harm than it is worth it to sock it to the algae. My home test said 10. Ph I...

well apparently they dont sell Liquid Chlorine here in TX? I find that very odd and wonder if it is a Leslie's thing so they can peddle their own products. Seeing as how you are in TX, I find it even more interesting. Hmmmm....

My Aqua Logic is currently running at 80%. We are still trying to balance our water, get our FC up. When all is said and done with balancing, what should I run the SWG at for maintenance?

Sorry I didnt catch the express offer for the test kit before I bailed today, Thanks so much for trying! I did the bleach, did the acid for Ph and am waiting it out. I pinned down the Leslie's Guy and made him tell me it was okay to use Bleach and would work :twisted: I also made him tell me...

Just kidding, duh, found it

One last thing...if you are out there. How do I lower PH? Off to research it unless you pop in sooner than I find an answer.

Okay on my way out the door to buy more stuff. I will go to another pool store where they dont see the Sucker stamp on my forehead, even though it isnt there, for the test. Remember my Vac "needed" 100$ in repairs!! Um try 40$ on the net:) I am blindly adding these things guys, so I am trusting...

Okay so I should add the Muric Acid to bring the PH down despite my CYA being 80? Or are these even the same thing? I did add 3 cups late last night and had the test done this AM.

I will definately purchase these kits! In the meantime I need something store bought to maintain my sanity during this process, it is taking everything in me to pour clorox in the pool LOL But I will....with my eyes closed. Should I leave my cell on? it just came back to life today after...

Okay a reply came up while typing this...I will go read it...if it answers my questions please disreguard:)

Okay I have not put the shock in and will return it to the store, as I am at the top on acid. It sounds like they are giving me things that fight eachother. As far as giving my cell a rest, it has just now started to work since our salt was so low it was not even on. Now the salt is up to 2900...

Okay so we moved into a new home with a salt pool. 17000 gal, Aqua Logic, Hayward 4 106 sqft filter cartridge. Pool looks great, get lots of rain, then one warm day and pool goes wild. We dont know about this thing, but in hindsight think it was begging for salt all along. So we have black...
