No but I just test it. At 2:00 I was at FC 21 and CC 1.0. At 9:15 I was at FC 30, CC 1.5. For the life of me why the heck is my CC not leveling out??????

I would consider the fact I added a gallon and a half at 10:12pm last night and my reading was 26 this morning, I would say that I've completed the OCLT. Would you agree?

Here’s my update for 1:55 on day 4.

at 2:40 I lost 3.5ppm from 8am and it's been full sun today. I supposed that is a good sign I'm losing less and less.

Is it common for the CC to not go down until the FC is holding?

8am update. FC at 12:45 am was 27. Tested at 8am, FC was 25. (Sun has been out earlier so it's possible I waited too late) However yesterday I was dropping at a rate of about 3-4ppm over 4 hours, so it's definitely getting better. Only problem I see is my CC is still varying from 1-1.5. 1.5 this...

All, I have had continually high CC around 1.5. With weather being rainy and temps dropping here in Ohio the next few days; I thought I'd start my SLAM process to get rid of it. I have a SWG, which is turned off, my CYA is at 60 so I've been targeting 24 ppm of FC. My water is already 100%...

But I'm at 1 to 1.5 in CC all the time, even when I haven't put non chlorine shock in....

Ok, so turned SWG off about 9:45pm, tested and FC 8, CC 2.0. This morning at 8am, FC 8, CC 1.5. I'm stumped why I continually have a high CC. What is causing it?????

Ahh, no. I'll retry tonight with it off.

So I did an overnight chlorine loss test. Last night I tested and FC was 9 and CC was 1.5. This morning, Chlorine 10 and CC 1.5. I turned down my salt cell about 10% this morning.

I will definitely try the Vitamin C to see what happens. On the Liquid Shock, are you saying use that exclusively and not the SWG? I'm confused by that part. Also, what FC level do you think I should hold at?

I am not on a well, using city water. I used the Non Chlorine shock which lowered my CC from 1.5 yesterday to 1.0 today. Are you recommending adding liquid shock or SLAM right now? If I add Liquid shock now it will obviously spike my FC.

Ok. The frog system is still installed however I'm not using a mineral pak or any tabs in it. Basically just there with water running through it due to plumbing. I'm using the Aquarite SWG now. Here are the test results I just took. FC - 6.0 CC - 1.0 PH - 7.5 TA - 80 CH - 75 CYA - 65 Salt -...

So I’ve been struggling with high CC in my salt water pool. My steps have been turning yellowish as well. I read that could be from metal so I thought I’d just to get water tested at Leslie’s. I have the TF-100 test kit which I use regularly. My CC has been creeping up lately but always reads at...

So essentially keep adding liquid shock until it holds and doesn't drop more than 1.0ppm overnight?

I did add and test multiple times on Sunday, however when I woke up Monday morning to test, FC had dropped by 7.5ppm.

Hi All, I've been eating through chlorine tablets like crazy here lately. I have a frog system (I know, TFP doesn't like) and I'm using 1" stabilized tablets. My Combined Chlorine has been 1.0ppm so I figured that was the culprit. I don't have algea, water is actually really clear. I bought a...

Very helpful. Thank you!

Return flow is much lower, which means I need to run my pump at nearly 100% to get good circulation in the pool. Typically I run my pump at 70% from 8am-4pm and then 35% from 4pm to 8am. At 70%, my flow is almost like 40% and 35% hardly moves any water. So maybe I get a bypass valve and keep...

I just got a Raypak 140 btu heat pump. I got it installed by my service tech the other day. Since it's been installed, my DE filter pressure went from a usual 10-12 to 20-22. Is this normal? I wouldn't think extra plumbing to the heater would have anything to do with my pressure building in my...

I drilled a two inch hole in the top of the frog pac and put my own tablets in. Then I covered the hole with duct tape. Last night, I took another pack I made, and took the duct tape off and put back in to see if it will increase my FC more. I can't seem to get it to go above .5ppm even on max...

Has anyone made their own Frog Chorine Pacs? Any tips or suggestions? 1” tabs I bought don’t seem to be dissolving at the rate of the Frog Brand but I refuse to buy those. New pool installed almost two months ago. I know this site isn’t a fan of frogger, just want opinions on diy pacs.
