I have a swg and my cya is at 60. Pool math says target fc is 7 which is what I keep it at but I get so itchy in the pool. I have been reading that fc only has to be at 7.5% of cya so wouldn't target be 4.5? I really want to keep fc lower to see if itchiness goes away. Thanks for the imput!

I keep lowering my ph with muratic acid and it goes to 7.6 but then in the next day or 2 It's backup to 8 or higher. This is the first year. We have had a salt water pool. And I read that sometimes it's harder to keep the PH down salt water generators. My cya is at 60 and I keep the fc at 7 My...

My pool is crystal clear but I have algae on bottom in spots. I brush it come back. I've been slamming the pool and it's still there. I read that you have to clean filters as well. I just bought new ones this year. Wouldn't the high bleach level be running through filters already? I am so...

I am so confused Reading all the information about saltwater generators and t a. I thought it was supposed to be around 120 then I read it should be around 80 for swg. Is this how all of you with Salt water generators calculate your TA? The adjusted alkalinity is the TA - (CYA x cf). So my ta is...

I don't have an automatic pool cover for my inground pool. I want to get a cover for winter but maybe also use it when We get storms. I live in a new development and during storms I get so much dirt in my pool. I was thinking vinyl but it's probably to heavy to lug around for every storm. I am...

If I want to shock my pool once a week can anyone help me figure out what I should bring chlorine level to? The pool calculator only does SLAM, Not a quick shock. My cya is 50 so I keep my FC at 6 all the time. Thanks

I had been using chlorine tablets to tri chlor kind and My CYA got really high. I switched to liquid chlorine a couple weeks ago but it seems like my ph is getting high which I read can happen from the liquid chlorine so so what's the best to using your pool I don't want to raise my CYA levels...
