Well, we had no idea we had this problem until the pool began to visibly leak from the exterior, last evening. The pool wall has a hole from rust. I’m thinking there had to be a very small leak that was undetected for quite some time to cause this damage. This part of the wall is under the...

My results are below. I was wondering, I still have slightly cloudy water. Is it possible that my PH is too low? Doesn’t PH normally read high during a SLAM? Could my water be cloudy because of low PH?

Added 2 more drops of #0007. My result is pictured. TA is 70.

My reagents are kept inside. Never in the heat. When do they expire?

Hello! I’ve been using this method for a number of years and have never had issues but this year I just can’t get my water clear. Had some equipment and pressure issues the first two weeks so I figured that was the problem. I’ve maintained SLAM for 3 weeks and I’ve done a very consistent job...

Our pool is well over 10 years old. We are needing to replace about 8-10 top caps and a few of the bottom ones. I believe they are discontinued. I believe the correct replacement is Atlantic 1490211. I’ll attach a few pics. Can anyone direct me where I could find them or help me find a...

FC-6 CC-.5 TC-6.5 PH-7.2 CH-60 TA-50 CYA-40 I don't recall my TA and CH every being that low. Are things good where they are or should I adjust something now that I'm through slamming? Thanks! (NE OK, above ground pool, sand filter, 25,000 gallons)

Ok, thanks!

We've had a lot of rain here in OK. A lot! I've had to empty water out of our pool on numerous occasions. My stabilizer has dropped because of this. I am wondering if I need to raise my stabilizer and my TA or just my stabilizer? I just added another jug of bleach so my FC would be closer...

I should clarify that my FC was at 6 this morning and my PH is still 7.2. No chlorine loss overnight but still have cloudy water.

My SLAM is very close to complete. My PH is still at 7.2. I know I need to raise my stabilizer a bit. Should I also raise my PH? My recent numbers are listed 4 comments back.

Looking back at the feed, I would've started the SLAM on April 28. I haven't taken pictures. It was green and gross when I started. Within 24 hours it turned blue. It was blue for quite a few days and now it's very cloudy. A few days in I couldn't see my pool brush at the bottom of the...

PLEASE HELP! Ok, everyone. I am still trying to clear up this pool. I have been SLAMing ever since I got the PH down to 7.2 and I still don't have a clear pool with out over night chlorine loss. Here are my current test results: FC-18 CC-1 TC-19 PH-7.2 TA-40 CH-140 CYA-27-30 (always hard for...

Yay! I think we are headed in the right direction. I did the gallon test and it turned orange. Thanks all!

I did notice that the bottle said 90% less odor. I considered that maybe it wasn't as strong but I couldn't find the strength on it when I checked yesterday. Funny you mention this cause I sent my husband to a different store to buy a different brand just before receiving this. - - - Updated...

I still haven't added bleach and I have now added 2 gallons (252 oz.) of liquid muriatic acid. It's still reading off the color chart. This seems completely ridiculous to me. I am not sure how to proceed forward. Can I do damage by continuously adding acid to my pool? It's green and I want...

No bleach has been added.

Ok, I've added muriatic acid 3 times. First 42 oz, then another 42 oz, then another 55 oz. The first addition was yesterday. The last two additions were in the last hour and a half. I waited 30 minutes or more after each. The PH is still testing higher than 8.2. So, I just keep going?

That’s what I thought. Thanks everyone!

Ok, my PH is still off the charts after adding 42 liquid oz muriatic acid. As I said, the water is green. I thought maybe my test kit was old so I had the pool store check my PH. They show it off the charts as well. They told me that if the water is green adding muriatic acid will not drop...

The pool is full. The water turned green on me this year, the filter is running and we are preparing to shock. I've been doing the BBB method for several years but always seem to question myself at start up time. Here are my current test results: FC-0 TA-50 CH-120 PH-way high...off the color...
