Thanks for all your help

Thank you again. I was reading the back of the container and it says that 2.5 Lbs will approximately raise 30 ppm on 10,000 gal. of water. Will the conditioner raise to 60ppm on my 21k gal. pool. This is confusing me. :hammer:

I have the powder conditioner and i have no idea how to weigth 84 ounces. I going to try and figure it out, i am sure i'll get it. Thank you.

I think i'll stick with the shock since i have never got any problems before. Thank you though.

my pool has 0 conditioner so i went to buy some. This time i want some help because last time i put to much and i needed a lot more chlorine to maintain a good level. Here are my numbers; FC - 1 TAC - 1 Ph - 7.6 CYA - 0 TA - 110

Which is cheaper? Shock (Cal-Hypo) or Regular bleach. I've been trying to figure this out but i never get to it, and also which is best for my pool

I'm a new pool owner and i kind of been frustrated :hammer:about the chemistry. i was talking to my nighbor about it and he told me that he only worries about the FC and PH, and he also told me that the previous home owner did the same and never had any problems with the pool. Is it good to...

Lol I never though of brusing when shocking, thank you

Thanks for the help

I just added muriactic acid to lower my Ph from 8.2 to 7.5, it has been about 1 and a half hour since that. Is it safe to shock rigth now? I have to have the pool ready because i have kids coming to swim, i know i have to wait four hours after i shock which is about the time they'll arrive.

Thanks a lot :goodjob: that really helped

Hello everyone, ok i'll get right to it. I just got a leslie's deluxe poolcare DPD test kit which tests for: Free Chlorine Total Chlorine Bromine PH Acid Demand Total Alkalinity I know i could have gotten a better one but my budget is not so good right now. I do not know how to make sense of...

I thought of that so i tried my it with may hand and it almost sucked my fingers off but the preassure was enough to make the recomended succion so i went to home depot and got a pvc stooper which fit perfectly and solved my problem. Thank you so much for your help though, i appreciate it.

im not really sure how to do that but there is only one valve which either shuts off the skimmers or the main drain; one side for skimmers other side for main drain.

I have two skimmers and a main drain.

Hello, i really need help with this. Last Thursday the land lord bught a hayward pool vac which goes all around the pool cleaning by itself and told me to vacuum the pool with that. I read the manual and watched the dvd intallation guide and i understood everything. The only problem i have is...

yes, i do not have a pool cover yet, should i get one?

I did that and left it for 3 days. on the second day i saw that the pool water was a little lower than the bucket but the next day i checked it was the same again. what was that about?

Hi, recently i noticed my pool water level goes down and i have been reading that is normal. Normally it losses about 1 or 2 inches in two and a half days, but sometimes it goes down about 3 to 3 1/2 in in three or four days. I live in Las Vegas, NV and the normal summer temp is about 102 F the...

thank you all for the good advice.

I think i will carefully read pool school because i have no idea what chemicals i need. And i hope taking care of a pool is not extremely hard.

Hello everybody, i am glad i found this forum :-D Anyway, i am a new pool owner, i have never taken care of a pool and i was wondering what are the most important things i should get. I already have a pole, brush, and a floter. What else do i need?
