Thanks guys, will go with the CCL option

I'm in need of R-0013 reagent at the moment, has anyone been able to track down a supplier?

I have a valve handle for the water feature that has gone brittle and broken, am I able to replace the handle only or will I need to replace the whole valve? thanks,

Water appears to be clear. Ive just tested FC tonight and it's at 10.5, filter was off for most of the day.

My SWG is reading low, going by the manual it operates best between 4000 and 6000ppm. Given that it is reading low am I safe to add enough salt to raise 1000ppm at a time? Using the pool math that works out to 52kg, should I add this now or wait for the FC to drop? should I now look at raising...

FC 11.5 CYA at 30, dot still visible

FC still 12 CYA at 30, dot slightly visible

FC 12 CC 0 CYA at 30 dot is slightly visable TA 90 CH 200

CYA 30 FC 16.5 should I Be adding any chlorine at this stage?

This mornings CYA 30, FC 18, no chlorine added i have scrubbed the pool and a quick vac and will check levels again in a couple of hours

I think you are right, I just checked the calculator and it defaulted to 6% rather than 12.5. I will check levels again in the morning. Thanks for for pointing this out

I'll see if I can pick a salt kit locally. Levels today are: PH 7.8 CYA 30 FC 20 CC 0 I haven't added chlorine, water is looking better.

When the time comes to turn the SWG back on will I need to add salt? should I be purchasing a salt test kit? thanks,

Yes not sure why the FC jumped so much, possibly an error on my part. Gave everything a good scrub and will continue to do so. Come the weekend I will be able spend a bit more time on it during daylight hours.

Just checked FC its at 26.5

I ok so I ran the pump overnight and then the power was off all day. Pool is looking slightly better. CYA 40 FC 17.5 CC 0 I have back washed the sand filter and am in the process of topping up with tank water and have also added 2 litres of chlorine and have the pump running again.

Sorry that is a typo, should be 50

Ok so PH is down to 7.3 CYA is 1ppm - typo CYA is 50 FC 1ppm CC 0 based on this my unsdstanding is that I should shock to FC of 20, is this correct? I have addd 12 litres of liquid chlorine and have the pump, and solar pump running

Thanks Jezza, my PH 8 tonight, so I have added the remaining dry acid and will drop past Bunnings tomorrow and pick up some Hydrochloric Acid. I just looked it up and the brand Bondall is listed under cement products, is this the right product to use? Or should I visit the pool shop? Is is the...

Thanks for the advice, I have a lot to learn with all of this testing so all advice is appreciated.

I've added some dry acid with the aim to lower the ph, will test again shortly. Thanks,

Thanks, I will stock up on liquid chlorine and begin the SLAM process.

A couple of photos to show the current condition.

Hi All, we we have just moved into our new home (Melbourne, Australia) and we now have a pool to maintain! currently the pool has not been maintained for about the last 4 weeks, so I have started by cleaning out all leaves etc... and running the creepy crawly. Should I run the filter by...
