Current fc 12 cc 0. The pool is still very hazy and not really improving. Robot is still running and I'm pretty confident the bottom is clear. The pressure on the pump hasn't been rising the last couple of days, is this normal?

Sure. Just checked with the new kit and I can still fill the entire tube up and see the black dot. Should I add some more stabalizer?

Just got new kit. Fc is 13.5 cc 1

Yeah who does something like that 🤦‍♂️

Afternoon update. Fc dripped to 8 added another gal of lc. I will be able to check it more often going forward and will maintain slam levels. Robot filter came up almost empty so seems like it's mostly leaf free. Filter pressure still reading normal.

When I pull on the bar there is no movement at all.

I have attempted to remove the ladder before but it's cemented into the ground :/

I scooped out a ton with the net and leaf eater already. I'm hoping it's just a few stragglers left behind.

Gave everything a good scrub that the robot might not hit so well - the ladder, steps, return jet. Sadly no light in my pool. The previous owner covered up the fixture when they got new vinyl. Robot is still picking up decent amount of debris like leaves and pinestraw and some sand? Is it...

I've been running the robot almost constantly but I will scrub the ladder by hand to make sure it's good.

Morning update. FC is at 13, CC 0. The water is still very hazy and the robot continues to come up with a basket full of leaves which I thought I had gotten. Oddly the pressure on the filter was normal this morning. I backwashed it to be safe anyways. I will add a gal of lc before work and...

I was just adding the a gallon every day or so to try and keep the algae at bay while I got all the Crud off the bottom. Now I can start the SLAM process. I did the ammonia test and it seems like we're good on that front.

The test kit should arrive tomorrow so I'll get some fresh numbers. I went ahead and added the stabilizer. I loaded up on LC from the store tonight - $5 a gallon geesh. I added 3 gallons to bring the FC up to shock level about an hour ago. Just retested the FC and its through the roof, 2 gallons...

Newish pool owner here. This is the first year i really screwed up the process of covering the pool. It comes with many great regrets but I have finally won the war over the leaves and pine straw on the bottom of the pool after many hard fought battles. The water is still very hazy and not...

I'm in the market for a new pool cleaner and my local pool store sells the Pentair Prowler 920 for $1500. I found what seems to be an identically brand new model on eBay for half price. Is this legit or am I going to get some kind of refurbished model...

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Okay, thank you for the answer. I will pretend like this never happened now.

I just went out and retested after swimming and I stopped at 40 (80 drops) as the pink was not fading at all. Seems very strange to me as I tested the water all last year with no issues. There is no smell of chlorine. Is it possible I have bad reagents? I ordered a new bottle of r-0003 off...

Yes that what ice been doing. I've used new reagents and multiple sample containers as I thought maybe the one I had was contaminated somehow.

Here is a picture of the rust spot.

Opened the pool up starting last Sunday. Everything seems fine but the fc is very high 30+ (I stopped there because I was using a ton of reagent). pH was 7.0 raised to 7.4 CYA was at 0 so I raised to 50. TA 50 FC 30+ for 2 days now without adding chlorine. I've knly added 4 gallons total of...
