    High daily uv chlorine loss/cya level

    Good afternoon everyone, Just curious what those of you who are in super sunny, hot areas like me (Dallas/Fort Worth) keep your CYA level at. I'm currently at 50 and thinking about bumping mine up to 60ppm, but don't want to get into any trouble with overstabilization. My pool is in full sun...

    Tail end of SLAM, can I get in to brush and remove light?

    Morning all, I just passed my OCLT, but am still keeping FC high because I haven’t taken the light out and scrubbed it. Is it safe to get in the water at shock level to do this? I’ve been brushing at least 2x per day, if not more. I had a small algae bloom, and it’s funny because I just...

It is still pumping water but was so loud that I turned it off anyway. It has been below freezing here for 2 days so it’s been...

    Newbie North Texas pool closing

    NEWBIE HERE...I have only lived in my house for about a month now and am just now starting to figure out my pool. I still have a lot of learning to go but it's cool outside today and that got me to thinking about closing the pool. Is it necessary in my neck of the woods? Can I keep maintaining...

    CYA off the charts

    Hello everyone. I'm a new IG pool owner, but I used TFP methods with my AG pool a few years ago with success. Pool was always sparkling. This new one is a bit of a challenge. I just moved in 5 days ago and had a bit of algae that I was feeling like I was getting under control with no...
