Any opinions of the Leslie's ProShield Rectangle - Deck Lock Mesh Safety Cover? Leslie's ProShield Rectangle Deck Lock Mesh Safety Cover Cheap?? junk??

We have a mesh cover. I don't know if it is a 'loop-loc' or not (we bought it used). It was worked fine for the about 8-10 yrs, but the stitching between the seams has become frayed. Is there any glue that will on this type of material, or does anyone have any suggestions as to fix. Don't...

After the pool had clear (can see the drain) and vacuumed pretty good, I finally did my first test this week. FC = 0.5 pH = 7.5 TA = 50 CH = 70 CYA = Didn't test. So I added 14 lbs of sodium bicarbonate, added 5 lbs of calcium chloride (bioguard Balance pak 300), 4 lbs of stabilizer, 121 oz of...

If a salt water generators show the chlorine output as lbs per day, how do you determine how much it would raise your FC (is it was all dumped into the pool at once).

I have a 16 x 32 inground pool. The skimmer is on one side, 10.5 feet from the wall in the shallow end. The two returns are on the other side, one 7 feet from the wall in the shallow end. The other return is 9 feet from the wall in the deep end. One drain in the deep end. Should both...

I have a Hayward SP714 T1 Valve that has a crack where you install the pressure gauge (I tightened the gauge too tight). I fixed it using JB Weld about two years ago, but this year it has started to leak again, so I thinking to replace it. How hard if it to replace one? Will I need to do a...

I thought that last year I read that you can re-test for FC about 2 hours after adding bleach (in front of returns). If that is true, then I'm getting some good bleach from Dollar General. I tested at 6:00 pm and the FC=2. I added 182 oz of bleach. I re-tested at 9:00 pm, and the FC=9...

I finally opened my pool. I added 3 - 182oz jugs of bleach (all that I had). I have about 30 lbs of the OPTIMUM Chlorinating Granules (from wal-mart or lowes made my aqua-chem) left over from last year before I started the BBB. Since my CYA values are 0 (or 9 according to the pool store), I...

If you have a party at 5pm-7pm, then check chlorine values and add bleach immediately after people leave, then re-check about 2 hours later, should you have the same values in the morning? Or are the values going to be lower because it takes time for the water circulate to kill all the 'organic...

I imagine that chlorine will drop during a pool party, but does this look normal? 7/5 10am - FC = 15 2pm - 7pm - Pool Party 7:30pm - FC = 6.5 (is this a normal chlorine loss for a party?) Added bleach to FC = 7 (tested) before bed. 7/6 9am - FC = 7 (no algae) 12pm - 1pm - (only person in pool...

Drained about 20 inches of water (~6400) to lower the CYA from 65-70. pH: 7.6 FC: 4 CC: 0.5 TC: 4.5 TA: 100 CH: 140 CYA: 40 I still need to put about 3-4 inches of water in the pool, but it was close to midnight. I know I need to re-test it in the morning (in the daylight) after I finish...
