When I service my bro-in-law’s exercise pool I just turn on the propeller for a couple of minutes. It’s great! Now...

Hello, I have been studying the CYA-chlorine relationship chart provided by Chem Geek et al. This is a well thought out analysis and the chemistry seems correct. But, no surprise, it brings into question recommended industry standards (at least in my case). We have a small (2400gal) outdoor...

Starting to regret that I hated organic chemistry in college. Refilled spa water and mistakenly added way too much sodium bromide to start the bank (oops). However, shock treatments (non-chlorine) even as they approach the recommended ratio, don’t result in stable Bromine readings (Lamotte...
