So last year we were not the greatest with keeping our PH down and have now suffered the concequences. We have extreme Scaling in the entire pool to the point where if you are in the pool your feet, hands and arms, basically anything that touches the walls or floors gets torn up. I have since...

Do I follow pool math or pH and acid demand dosing instructions?

Tomorrow the gazeebo and furniture will be delivered and I looking to string up lights for this but would prefer to go solar. Currently we have no lights poolside other than the one in the pool. The brighter the better, but I don't want to break the bank so around $100. Anyone have a set they...

So later this week I will be putting down my $1,000 to get in line for our pool build. Our yard is an interesting shape and we have overhead power lines we have to get hurried in order to get a pool put in. So far here is the prelimary drawing: Not doing too much extra as we are trying to...

looking to put a pool in our backyard, nothing fancy. Trying to decide on a builder been turned off from one already, have another coming out in 2 weeks. Anyone in the area have a budget friendly, quality builder they would recommend.

So I've now had to SLAM my pool three different times. The SLAM usually lasts about a week and then the pool goes back to being Chrystal clear for another couple weeks before I start to notice algae starting to creep back. I've bee keeping my chlorine at 5, and my CYA at 60 and run my pump...

I am currently in the process of SLAMing my pool and just got my TF-100 test kit and I got to 60 drops for testing TA and gave up. The pool is cloudy as I assume that's from the TA being too high. Do I worry about the TA or PH while SLAMing or just concentrate on chlorine levels? FC 12.5 (CYA...

Did anyone else order their Tf-100 test kit off of amazon? It says it'll be here anywhere between July 7 and July 24. Just wonder what typical shipping times look like

Pool definitely needs to be vacuumed but is the green looking stuff algae? I will be ordering the TF100 today in order to check levels better but current my OTO test says FC is about 5-6 ph is 6.8(low) and if I had to guess based on instant conditioner and spa/pool shock granular I added before...

My dog has a habit of getting her tie out line wrapped around the pump and either flipping it over or dragging it and the cement block its attached to around. So my question is how would one go above putting hard plumbing underground? If I can move it about 6-7 feet over it can be up against...

So I tired to go the cheap route and bought only the basic test kit from my local pool store and have been using clorbrite spa shock/chlorine. It worked great for a couple weeks before it reach surface of the sun hot here in Florida. Then my pump went and pool turned green and had major algae...

I noticed this just yesterday when scrubbing the pool. It's hard to tell by the video but the last brush I believe you can see it. Is this an algae build up? All my levels are fine and chlorine levels have not dropped, so I wouldn't expect algae to form... Algae building up? - YouTube

Just finished setting up/fill the new pool tonight. I will be adding chemicals tomorrow after an initial test. Definitely going to be upgrading the pump, but want to get up and running first. I have twin 5 year old girls who are VERY excited about this. Does anyone have one of these types of...
