Good day, My pool ladder just broke and we are looking into getting pool steps as replacement. They would be fasten to a deck. I am undecided between two models and would like input between the two models. Both are about the same price. $199.99 VS $159.99 Thanks Justin

Re: Can't get my PH do go down JamesW: I am not using the test strips. The pool Store does my tests and I have some OTO Chlorine tests that shows my low level of chlorine. I am in the works of getting the TF-100 kit but it is a little complicated because of my location. Flintstone: I will...

Re: Can't get my PH do go down The water temp has been averaging at about 84. I was suggested to shock it by the pool store and the "How to shock" in the Pool School since the chlorine I have been putting in keeps getting back to zero even after large quantity. From the pool school: " If...

Re: Can't get my PH do go down Thanks Richard for the info. I guess I'll make the trip to the USA a little earlier to get my test kit as the pool store people start to know me by my first name since I get my water tested daily with them. Lightingguy: My FC has been at 0 for the past 2...

I am trying to get my PH down before I shock and I can't seem to do it. Does MA get stale after some time? I am using some leftover from the previous owner. There is still fumes coming out of the bottle and it still stings when some of them gets in my eyes :shock: Here are my numbers. FC...

Like other mentionned. You can't pruchase the kit in store. What I'll be doing is getting my kit shipped to a UPS store and pick it up there. They charge 5$ for holding the item. Now my question is, do I get the Stirrer or not?

JasonLion and Beamup: Thanks again for the tips. This forum is wonderful!!! Can't wait to have a testkit.

JasonLion. Thanks for your input. I guess I'll be stacking up on chlorine. What would you recomend to do since no test strips goes as high as 28 for FC and I have access to no test kit? Beamup: As for the kit, I'll be getting it shipped to a UPS store near the border(Ogdensburg) and pick it...

For the past couple of weeks, my chlorine's been really low(0). I was only using pucks(insuffecient) and it was bringing my CYA level too high, so I removed them bought a shock treatment, put it in, waited 2 days, got it tested again at my pool store and it was still at zero. I bought another...

Thank you for the quick answer. I guess I will need to do a little trip to the USA and pick up a kit as I am not ready to fork $150 for a test kit.

Good afternoon, I am just wondering if there are other canuck members on this board and if so, do you know where I can purchase TF-101 test kits in Canada? I have contacted TFtestkits websites and they do not ship to Canada. Thanks Justin

A friend of my parents says he gets a guy to come over, after the pool was shocked, puts some "product"(hard metal)and that is it. The pool is maintenance free for the rest of the summer. All that for 75$. He says the only thing he needs to add when the water gets hazy is some bleach. BBB...

Good day, I am totally a newbie a pool so you will probably see me alot. I bought a house in the winter with a pool(already winterized) and now I need to hook everything up and I have no clue what goes where. I have a pump, a filter, a off line chlorinator, a "Nature2" system, 4 hoses which 2...
