    Enzymes

    I am starting this thread and I know nothing about the subject! Over a period of time. I have seen varying opinions on enzymes as a cleaning agent for oils in pool water. I am pulling one of 1poolman1's post into this thread. He is a proponent and I would like some input from anyone...

    Leaking chemistry for the test kits

    From time to time, there are posts concerning leaking chemistry either in the set or in the refill package. Let me say first of all that ALL the chemistry is harmless (Please don't drink it, use it as eyewash, food seasoning, pet medicine, etc.) so do not worry if you get some on your...

    Clumped and darkened DPD powder

    I'm late to the dance, but I want to comment on a couple of posts I've seen concerning DPD powder. Many of you notice the R-870 powder will darken to gray over time and has a tendency to clump.

    Poured cement wall pool w/ vinyl liner

    In this thread Steel Wall Vinyl vs Cement Wall Liner, catanzaro has a nice pic of a poured wall vinyl liner pool. I have never seen or heard of one. Are these common? Anybody ever price on? It would seem to me to approach the cost of a gunite pool.

It would teach the TFP methods in detail and answer any pool-related questions you may have.....including personal or special issues you may have with your pool.

    If I could change TroubleFreePool, I would....

    What would you like to see? We sometimes take a long time to act but we read and are open to all suggestions so let us know what you would like to do to make TFP a better place. It's OK if it's critical as long as it's cordial.

    Faster TFP?

    Not being able to sleep, I was logged onto TFP about 5:00 AM EST. TFP went down for about 3 minutes or so. It came back up and, I am probably dreaming, but seems a little faster than before. Any one else notice it?

    TFTestkits has a big "Oops" to report

    Hi, Folks, We typically don't use the forum for customer service but we need to get this info out. Over the last week or so we have received complaints about the drops in the TF-100 reagents not forming the right size drops. Today, we put together enough info to figure what happened. There...
