MeSue, I would have to turn the filter off because in the instructions for the flock it says that you add the product and turn the filter off for 24 hours to let everything settle. You put in the product, let it circulate and then turn the pump off. As far as adding stabilizer to my pool -...

Hey Donnie I have a question for you, where did you get a timer with a freeze sensor on it? And, if you don't mind my asking, what was the price range on that? Every year we balance our pool, drop the water level below the skimmer basket and return, cover it and disassemble the pump, filter...

Thank you everyone for the encouragement and great advice. You all have been great. I'll let you know my progress tomorrow. Had to take the kids to the fair today so I have not had time to check the pool this afternoon/evening. I'll check it again in the morning and let you know how it goes...

Hey, I tested my ph and it is registering between 7.5 and 7.8. Is this an okay range for conversion? PTravis

Hey everyone, Sorry it took so long to reply. Just received my test - my FC is at 23 ppm and my CC is at 4. I have already added close to 35 gallons of bleach since Wednesday. I have a 21' AG pool with a sand filter. Continuously adding bleach but am afraid I will hurt the liner or pump...

Hi everyone!!! Just wanted to say a quick hello and introduce myself. I have a 21' AG Pool w/sand filter. I am converting from Baquacil to chlorine. Can't stand Baquacil anymore. I can't keep fighting the algae. I am starting my conversion today so if anyone has tips other than those I...

starting my conversion today Gatorcountry, You have given me hope that I also can do this. :goodjob: I am sick of Baquacrap too. I can't fight the algae anymore. :x How many gallons did you initially put in of bleach? Did you have your test kit when you started this? If not, how did you...

Thank you very much for your quick response. I really, really appreciate it. I was afraid that after adding 5 gallons of bleach that I had added too much at one time. I will order the kit and continue from there. Thanks again, Confused in McDonough
