Hello Friends I hope everyone having a great TFP season thus far. Last year I noticed my pool wall sinking a little bit. This year it is sinking even more. Or perhaps another section of pool is heaving from water draining off the house. In any case, im concerned about the safety of the...

HI all, like so many others i question whether i have an algae problem or is it just mud or pollen. My pool has been crystal clear all summer, never a cloud or dis color just crystal dreamy clean. The debris on the bottom begin to accumulate slow, maybe a week to get to the point in the...

Preface this with an issue i had last week regarding test kit quality. replaced kit from tftestkits.com my pool since its opening this year has had a ferocious appetite for chlorine. 5-6 ppm a day. I know theres something in there but its crystal clear Since opening 2 weeks ago Ive added 9...

sorry to ask yet another cloudy water question, but after almost 2 months of perfect water my pool went cloudy from yesterday into today. i vaccumed the floor, (litttle green here and there) and kicked the pump into high gear this morning and added 184 oz of clorox. I suspect an overnight pump...
