    New pool Hi!

    Yes, the pool is older that 30 days. I got the test kit today. Here are my stats. Also, I fired my pool guy, so it’s just me now. There’s still what appears to be algae in the plaster on the steps and in the corner of the skimmer box. Also, I’m doing a partial drain and then will retest the CYA...

    New pool Hi!

    We recently put a 14x28 pool in our backyard. About 13-15k gallons. I’m about to fire my pool guy because it’s constantly growing algae days before he gets here and there’s a few spots he can’t seem to get clean. He says my plaster is too rough in these areas and I should have my builder come...

    Help with 1st time SLAM, cloudy water just wont clear!!!

    Just a little update, at 2:00, my FC level is at 16 ppm. Maybe my CYA is actually lower than 30? Is it normal for the liquid chlorine to evaporate so fast? Either way, it's still at shock levels, so that's good. This all started a few weeks ago when I took a water sample into Leslie's, and...

    Help with 1st time SLAM, cloudy water just wont clear!!!

    Hi! I found this forum about two weeks ago when my pool turned green. We let it go about three days before getting a bag of cal-hypo from the pool store. At that time, I had no idea what I was doing. After a few days, it started turning green again. So I decided to buy a TF-100 test kit. I added...
