    Weeks long slam-am I doing things right?

    I have been today. That’s what made me question myself, it lost 2.5ppm in less than 2h.

    Weeks long slam-am I doing things right?

    Thank you. Yes cya is 40. I think pool math maybe overshooting the chlorine as it’s been higher when checking after adding a few times.

    Weeks long slam-am I doing things right?

    I opened on May 29 to a green pool. I almost had it cleared up and the sand filter blew out the side so I had to wait for a new one and restart June 7. I have added ridiculous amounts of chlorine and my loss for the past 24h is already 16. I ran out a few times so the fc dipped down lower than...

    Feel like pool store is pool storing me

    My pool was around the same ppm when we switched to salt the first time. I’m just paranoid I’m going to mess something up on the new pool but the science says otherwise. Thank you!

    Feel like pool store is pool storing me

    I told the guy that there’s very little difference in salinity between salt vs non salt pools then he started talking about residual salt causing damage, which I didn’t understand.

    We are hard piping ourselves, just can’t decide chlorine or salt.

    Feel like pool store is pool storing me

    We got a new salt friendly 24ft agp last summer. We previously had a swg and wanted to use that on the new pool. Pool store said they won’t warranty (the work I guess) a salt pool even though the pool and liner manufacturer allow salt. They tried to sell a mineral and ozone system but we said no...

    New agp, need advice on add ons!

    I can’t find anything directly from vogue about warranty, I just saw salt friendly on a website that sells it. It is all resin aside from the resin coated aluminum wall. Does it change anything being that the pool company is installing it? I guess I’ll have to call vogue. Our current pool is...

    New agp, need advice on add ons!

    So I’ve pretty much nixed the idea of the mineral/ozone system after reading on here but I still can’t understand why I can’t use my swg. The pool is advertised online as salt friendly but we were told warranty doesn’t cover it. I guess I’ll be going back to liquid chlorine 😞 should we cancel...

    New agp, need advice on add ons!

    We are leaning toward the cartridge filter for the better filtration and our sand filter is prob 15y old. However, our pump and swg are around 3yo. Pool store has my husband convinced salt will destroy anything and so he thinks that’s what happened to our liner and pool. The system they are...

    New agp, need advice on add ons!

    I posted last week about our liner failing and we have decided to go the new pool route and are going with a 24ft vogue panache. The pool store is trying to sell us their package but we don’t really need a new pump or filter. If we do go with it, is sand (what we have now) or cartridge better? I...

    Need advice on liner!

    We drained it bc our yard couldn’t take on anymore water. The patch we did underwater wouldn’t hold and it’s been empty for awhile so we are hesitant to try to refill it.

    Need advice on liner!

    Thank you! Yes, the resin upgrade for just the top stabilizers is 700 something, we can get a whole new pool for $3100 installing ourselves. We can either sand and paint and get a cheaper liner to hold out for next year or scramble up the money now. Not sure if it’s worth all the work tbh if we...

    Need advice on liner!

    So if mine is overlap I would need unibead? We were planning on replacing the deck with the pool next spring but it does not go over the top. I think I might have my terms confused, the part that’s rusted is under the top ledge, the metal part that goes on top of the wall.

    Do y’all have an opinion on overlap vs beaded? I was wanting beaded bc we didn’t get this overlap one even and if we install ourselves it sounded easier.

    It is glimmer glass, we bought it through Linerworld. I didn't even think about the making us ship the old liner! I used liquid chlorine to slam but poured slowly in front of return. I guess our next step is to survey the rust, it was $700 something for new top rails 😣 I will look at those...

    Need advice on liner!

    The company emailed back that our warranty was prorated and we would need to pay $211 for a replacement. I’m kind of nervous to get another from them. We were planning on a new pool next summer so that could hold us over until then if the rust isn’t too bad. I’m worried about the top rails...

    Need advice on liner!

    I constantly monitored it though and it was never above slam level the 2 times I had to slam. It’s def not uniform. I guess we’ll wait and see what linerworld says, I’m not getting my hopes up. We were concerned about it at installation when we noticed black areas around the seams and different...

    How would it have been bleached with a swg? It was never above slam level for my cya for more than a day or 2. Wouldn’t that have bleached it uniformly?

    Need advice on liner!

    We installed this liner 2 years ago from liner world. It has faded terribly and unevenly. It is below the water line but I do not think it is from water chemistry bc I regularly check and nothing has been way off. It is in the sun almost all day. It now has 2 leaks, one on the side and one on...
