I'm currently draining a bit to replace some water and I've always wondered why my plaster looks like this. I know for a fact that it hasn't been redone in over 12 years. What causes this, and is there a fix for it?

Not a SWG expert but I would imagine that if you turn the generator down low, the sun should consume the chlorine and bring it down to the appropriate level.

Oh wow. Ok well in your opinion, do you think a SWG might be a good idea for you too? Might save you $ in the long run.

I'm glad this question came up because I just finished SLAMing and I was wondering how much FC was normal to be losing during the day. 4-5 seems about right what I was seeing too when I was gone for the day. Just did a quick calculation on how much that will cost to maintain using liquid and...

Well you and I are basically in the same area so I’ll take your word on that and do it as you’ve said. Thank you for your instruction. I’ll post back once I have things going.

Well the hose water will be cooler than the pool water but we’ve already established that I have a high calcium hardness. I’m not using salt. Does the hose at the bottom of the deep end and draining from the top step in the shallow end still apply?

Ok. I’ll grab my friends pump. Due to the temperature of the water and something I read in another thread, I should be draining from the shallow end and filling from the bottom of the deep end. Is this the correct method? After a couple days I should then check the CYA. If it’s good, get the pH...

Testing CH this morning. I’ve stopped adding the final drops because I’m at 750 hardness and still don’t have a blue measurement, it’s only a light purple or lavender color. Does it matter at this point? The CH is also very high. Edit. Used more drops and got to 1250. Is this possible?

I just realized that it’s CYA not CLA. Too many years with kids in a daycare abbreviated with CLA. I have a friend with a small pump and I can borrow that. It’s not the fastest thing in the world but if I’m doing an exchange, I don’t want fast. I’ll check the CH too but I’m guessing that is also...

Hello all. I've browsed this forum here and there but until I recently purchased a decent test kit I didn't think it would be proper to ask questions. Well, I got my kit and the first thing I did was test CLA. It is off the charts high. Even diluted I get about half way to the 100 mark and I...
