Thank you for reading my topic and answering.

Very clever.Thank you. Any more ideas ?

Anyone thought about developing a spreadsheet in excel or similar software. Where to keep track of chemical balance fluctuation and how it was fixed. Something like “Pool Calculator” but with capability to keep record on test reading. Eventually inserting few graphics or charts based on...

Intex filter/pump 633t has no pressure gauge.Would it be beneficial to have one? If so anyone have mounted one?

Thank you JasonLion. Here are a few picks Present and past. Im working on a home made aerator atached to the pool inlet. Will post pictures how soon is ready.

Hello! Inexpensive test strips can play games on us. Please read this and comment These are my test results: TH-50 TC-2 FC-3 pH-7.6 TA-120 CYA-50 Pool store #1 reading: TH-19 TC-2.8 FC-2.8 pH-8 TA-118 CYA-26 Salt -3510 Their recommendation was to put in 2lb of pH down and 1 lb of cyan...

Before borate-ing test results are: TH-50 TC-3 FC-4 pH-7.4 TA-80 CYA-40 After adding 412oz Borax and 196 fluid oz Muriatic acid (mixing, brushing, vacuuming and waiting 2 h) test results are: TH-50 TC-2 FC-3 pH-7.6 TA-120 CYA-50 Is this normal? I should add more Muriatic acid and start...

Thank you so much! Right answer at right time . All the time.

Is it safe to use the pool during the first 24-48 h after adding borax and acid?

Thank you very much JasonLion. New testing pH -7.2 TA - 40 FC - 3 TC - 3 CH - 70 CYA - 0? Im back on 7 h regular filtration and 6 h SWG. Water continues to improve but is far from Crystal clear blueish color what I like. Any automatic vacuum sugestion for Intex type AGP pools? How can I mount...

I'm boost-ing with the Intex SWG for over 24 h. I will turn off tomorrow morning. Test results FC-5 or more pH-7.6 Water improved a little . I changed the water circulation from skimming to strainer grid inlet, it has a bigger suction this way. It circulates more water definitely. Filter got...

Thank you PaulR,JasonLion,Ohm_Boy Pool store Iron test results = 0 Total dissolved solids =0 Saturation index =-2.06 normal is -.3 to .3 ppm and they say is corrosive. Calcium hardness is very low 28 .In a vinyl pool I understand dosenmatter. I'm posting a new picture with the water...

Hello! Used a pantyhose (not a dedicated skimmer basket sock I know) over the skimmer basket overnight and just changed it earlier . Here is what I washed out of it. Is this rust , copper stain ,algae or what? I thank you guys for any response.[attachment=1:12gvjb86]P5230320...

I suspect cooper staining also. The Intex SWG CS8110 Model 2010 has a Copper electrode beside chlorine cells, Intel claims Copper ions is an algaecide. Forum members have mentioned to eliminate this electrode for the above reason. Is this a good idea? The sock I used yesterday to dissolve Cyan...

[attachment=2:13uvg7kw]P5220310 b.jpg[/attachment:13uvg7kw] Here are few picks. In reality it looks lot worse.

Thanks so much for responding. My results differ from the store ones. I'm testing with the Intex strip test and Aqua Chem liquid OTO and Phenol Red. Strip test results before and after shock are almost the same. pH -7.6 TA - 120 FC – 5. TC – don't have CH - don't have CYA - don't have...

Need help to balance water. Water is getting green and fuzzy. First day added 175 lb Morton salt from Walmart, 1.5 lb Cyanuric Acid. and shocked/Boost 2 times with a Intex SWG. I run the pump and filter 6-7 hours and the SWG 5 hours daily overnight. I wash the filter every 2nd day it cloges up...
