A friend is starting with TFP. Downloaded the app and subscribed. App isn’t logging any entries except product added. No check mark available once we enter current level of FC for example. When we “x” out FC has a - as current level. Any known issues? Using I phone 13.

We are in 3rd year with a cheap Intex pool. Supports are rusting so it is coming down this fall. Cheap Walmart clear energy but served the purpose of whether it would get used and how much pain to take care of it. (TFP fixed the latter) 😀👍 We are wanting a longer term replacement. Daughter...

Which tests are affected by water temps in the 55+ degree range?

It can't be right when you fire up the wood burner and close the pool on the same day! :laughblue:

Currently have Intex with 2 outlets to pump, not skimmers. They are too close to the pump and inlet to pool, maybe 5' or so. Having trouble with dead spot directly across the pool. Upgraded pump last year to 2450gpm, runs 12hrs a day. Tried different directions with eye inlet, very little...

I take our water sample from the far side of the pool from the pump. After getting some weird FC readings, I realized that I had sampled near our pump instead of my normal spot and the FC was higher there. The pump area is also somewhat shaded from a large tree, so maybe 1/3rd of the pool may...

1st time pool owner last year...never had to slam, smooth opening this year! Thank you! A little chilly today. 78d. But grandkids said it looked too inviting!

????? Sigh. Didnt read details. Guessing it is just a solar powered cu dispenser. Lol.

I probably missed it somewhere but how do you convert saltwater generator estimated grams per hour to the equivalent in bleach or chlorine? Thanks!

Hey all, See logs below. I had a couple blips where the cc went to 1.5 and 2, is this normal? They were on the 29th and 27th. Also now that I have the TA close, should I block the aeration nozzle now that I do not need to actively raise the PH? Thanks! *Note: The times may...

Hey all, Working on lowering my TA the last several days. Hooked up the original pump we had replaced with sand filter and shooting it over the pool to speed along the PH rise. Sand filter pump is 3k gph and the original pump is 2.5k gph rated. Besides bad acid and bad testing operator, is...

Anyone know offhand the approximate number of tests in the TFT salt test kit? Assuming cheaper than test strips? sigh, should have ordered when I got my kit...

Hey all, Now that I am following TFP I am wondering what to do with the following, keep or sell / giveaway? Clorox PH Down. Main Ingredient sodium bisulfate 93.2%. Full jug Clorox shock, chlorine free shock oxidizer. Main ingredient potassium monopersulfate Clorox PH Up. Sodium carbonate...

Hey all, After chasing butterflies with our test strips, we are getting ready to order a test kit. Thinking the TF-100 but wondering if some of the options are worth getting at the same time. PH meter $14 ? Assuming not as accurate but worth it for a quick and dirty check? Speedstir Magnetic...

We are about 2 weeks into our first pool. Using Clorox Smart strips for testing. Total Hardness steady at 500, down to 250 today. Added 1 qt. Scale, Metal and Stain control yesterday. Total CH finally in range of occasional 3's to 1's. Using SWG that was bought before pool, found out it is...
