    help this is driving me nuts.

    Update. My water is looking real good. Nice and blue but still cloudy. I started a overnight test and after getting my fc count I tested cc and it showed zero. What does that mean? Ph was 7.2 fc was 14. I didn't test cya as I had to add some water do to backflushing so often but it was 30

    [/URL][/IMG] been doing a slam for 2 weeks and found this under the steps. I pulled them out and cleaned them. Rest of the pool is looking good. It was pretty clear until I had to brush under this. If I leave them out of the pool for a few days will that ensure that everything is dead? I...

    Yep, it knocked the CYA down to 40. Using a FC of 16 and checking every hour it dropped 3 per hour until dark. Checked this morning and it was still at 16. Now I just need to get the cloudiness out of the water. I am going to add some DE but was wondering, do you add it until the pressure...

    Yes i am. Read that on here. Today it is cloudy and it read 80-90 but think it was that high due to the weather. Before I found this forum I was using a strip test kit from last year. I ended up putting 1.5 bottles of stabilizer in my pool. After I went to pool school and learned the errors of...

    I am ready to shoot a hole in this pool. I have been performing the slam process and have progressed to a blueish pool but it is still cloudy and will not improve. I had high cya and have done five partial water changes but still cannot get it done past 70-80 range. The pool filter has run for...
