Just opening the pool and while the water is very clear, my numbers are all quite low: FC 1 CC 0 TC 1 CYA <20 (filled cylinder to top and dot could still be seen clearly) TA 20 pH 7.2 Borates 0 (maybe 15) Salt 480 CH 75 Water temp: 58 I'm thinking I need to: 1) Bring CYA up to 70...

I have a couple of questions regarding raising my CYA. CYA is currently 50 and according to TFP, I should bring that up to at least 70 (I have a SWG), correct? Pool Math says to add 0.1 oz liquid stabilizer but I only have the powder. It looks I can't add a small enough amount of powder since...

I have an above ground 24' Radiant Metric pool being installed later this month and I am searching for the best SWG that I can afford. I understand that I should go for one 2-3 times larger but I'm not sure I can afford to do that right now. I only have about $700 to comfortably spend but could...

After years of "begging" for a pool, I have finally put down a deposit on a 24' round Radiant and I am beyond excited even though it may be July before the pool gets in! Due to some serious skin issues, I am also more than a little nervous about spending this kind of money and possibly not being...
