    Water cloudy from dog swimming?

    Moved from here. I'm having the same issue with our pool. FC 4.5, CC 0, PH 7.3. Can a dog swimming in the pool cause the cloudiness? That's the only difference bewteen this year and all the previous years and the pool always had that sparkle. Now it's dull and slightly cloudy. We got a...

    Electrical pole help

    Well, we got the new deck in. I still need to finish the skirting and add some storage areas underneath. What I'm wondering is how people have handled the electrical side of things. Below are a few pictures of what we are working with. There is an unused AC cutoff located on the corner of...

    I'm a bit confused on how/what I should do for the winter here in north Texas. We are located roughly one hour south of Oklahoma north of Dallas and I'm wondering if I need to lower the water level and put a tight meshed cover on for leaves and stuff or just leave it up and running over the...

    Pool numbers with TF-100 kit

    So, it's been 3 weeks since I got the TF-100 test kit & AquaCheck Salt test strips. My PH wants to climb almost daily. I believe it is due to the unbelievably high TA we have. I checked and double checked it. I have been using MA and aeration to adjust TA & PH. It seems to be working, but...

    First real test with HTH 6 way test kit

    The pool has been full since the weekend of the 4th. After about a week or so we got a hi salt error. The Intex SWG's will NOT generate Chlorine when there is any kind of error code. I kept an eye on things and occasionally put a little bit of shock in to keep the levels up. I picked up the...
