    5th Weeks of Chemicals - 2 Week SLAM and Deep End Still Cloudy

    Okay, trying to get one of these kits is such a hassle and so expensive but seems it’s the only way to use this process. I’ll work on trying to purchase one. 😊 …and I know some are you are saying…it’s cheaper than 12 gallons of chlorine…I already had all of the other chemicals and I’ve only...

    5th Weeks of Chemicals - 2 Week SLAM and Deep End Still Cloudy

    Good luck. 35 years and no Slam so I thought I’d at least give it a try and its definitely gotten better but I guess with no Taylor test kit people like me shouldn’t come here for help?

    5th Weeks of Chemicals - 2 Week SLAM and Deep End Still Cloudy

    It’s been getting better but it’s been sooooo slow! We’ve had the pool 36 years and never had a problem. We’ve been so lucky, but it wasn’t covered at all for the very first time and the pollen was soooo bad I drained 2-3 ft and got everything balanced but water was still cloudy blue so I...

    Absolutely nothing in the deep in. Pool is squeaky clean. After I got it cleaned I run my dolphin every day for an hour and basket is empty except a day or so ago when we had a storm. Since things have been steady I haven’t brushed much. Probably once in last 3 days.

    I haven’t had any FC drop in about 5 days. It’s always 12.5. I think 12 is my slam level right? Right now I’m testing 2-3 times a day and things are staying steady. I was thinking about lowering PH but thought I’d try this forum for advice first. 😊

    5th Weeks of Chemicals - 2 Week SLAM and Deep End Still Cloudy

    Filter is fine with new sand. I vacuumed to waste. I also keep a fine skimmer net over the skimmer to catch all the pollen in the water. It was a game changer. I can’t afford the Taylor kit right now so I’ve been using HTH 6 way and pool store and the numbers are always same or close enough...

Shocked with bioguard granular 2-3 times, flocked twice, and it was a cloudy blue. Pool is squeaky clean. Now that I’ve found TFP I’ve been slamming for 2 weeks now...
