Thank you

Is there an easy way to clean the chlorine test vial from the purple residue? Water and a pipe cleaner just don’t get it.

So if the test is Flat or Phillips head screws in the 10 foot deep end, I’ve passed

So if the test is flat or Phillips head screws, I’ve passed.

Lol. Truthfully not my intent. Just want to maximize the clarity. I wish there was a clarity index. I’m very grateful I found this forum!

Clarity index. The deep end with the drains are 10 feet. The water is clear. I’m SLAMing right now into my 3rd day. All three criteria are met. I’m just wondering if the water can get any clearer?

Thanks for the prompt reply! Water looks great

I saw where pol math has values for 350-550 for CH but Pebble Tec website said it should be 200-400. Which is correct? Mine currently is 275. See signature

Thank you sir! So I need to tackle the CH and then TA. I will retest all parameters tomorrow to see where we are at.

Here’s what I have: OCLT loss of 1ppm from 15-14ppm CC is 0.0 Clarity is pretty good. Was wondering if deep end could get any clearer. Here is the pic from this am. What do you recommend? Continue SLAM or move on?

Today I took the liberty of updating my signature block that I hope will be more in line with this forum. You can click on my link in my signature and get the latest data. At 6:39 pm EST, I did a FC and CC. FC yielded 13 ppm and CC 0.0 The pool is still cloudy but getting better. I pressure...

Splashpad, Thanks for the response. I will recheck the CH and every reading once I am done with SLAM. I started last night around dusk. Pool is clearing up. Ill give it at least till tomorrow to ensure the three criteria are met (clarity, OCLT and CC) and will just measure FC and CC. So...

Morning results: 1. FC 15.0 ppm 2. TA 100 ppm 3. CYA 40 ppm (rounded from 35 ppm due to algorithm) 4. pH 7.6 5. CH unable to get reading. performed twice. 10 drops of reagent then 3 drops to turn it red. It was like pink but then went clear as I was adding last reagent. Could Chlorine level...

Ok Here are my results: 1. FC 1.0ppm 2. TA 100ppm 3. CYA 35ppm 4. pH 7.5 5. CH 125ppm 6. CSI -0.41 7. Temp 79 Recorded at 6 pm Eastern. Pump is running at 3450 rpms constant on. SLAM Target Chlorine is 14 ppm says to add 2.7 jugs of Kemtech Bleach @10%. I accomplished this. Will repeat...

When the pool is filled up: - I'm going to check the CYA level, if good then I will check and adjust the pH between 7.2-7.5 first with the filter on - Do I need to take initial readings on FC/CH/TA and CC prior to SLAM?

Here is how far we drained it down to...now the fill up.

Copy no such thing a chlorine lock. My ratio from CYA to FC is 100 to 2 (50:1). Understand ratio should be 7.5:1 I have the deluxe TFP test kit I bought from this site. CYA gave me 100 yesterday and 90-95 today--matches photo. My test yesterday was also validated at the pool store (100ppm)...

Greetings, 1. 21,000 gallon free form gunite pebble tech pool with spa. Chlorine based. Built in November of 2017 in Middle Georgia. 2. Coming out of winter this year, noticed we were using a high amount of Chlorine tablets....pool turning very light green. What you noticed is that it was...

So we did some research on which components to select for an outdoor kitchen and purchased them. We drew out the kitchen in chalk and hired the mason that built the fire place to construct the kitchen. We wanted thick and rounded counter tops. We then contracted a cement decorator who applied...

It's actually an epoxy-resin. We wanted something to ignite that area of the pool and think we achieved it! All the stone is hand chipped and we wanted it to flow with the rest of the house so the only creativity we could induce lied in the countertop. The countertop is 4" thick concrete.
