Update 3/17 I successfully installed my SWG yesterday, a CircuPool RJ30 unit. The part I wanted to share with everyone is this: I used the Pool Calculator to determine that I would need ~ 293 pounds of salt for my 10,000 gallon pool to raise the salinity to 3500 PPM. Doing things how I...

I can't wait for the weather to warm up a bit so the kids can get in there, that pool sparkles now! Wife still has reservations on this whole thing. My daughter would have rashes on her legs when the pool was on chlorine several years ago (we always used pucks, LOTS of them). She is concerned...

Update: I have completed the conversion, and I have had successive overnight results with 0 FC loss and CC of .5 or less. It was wavering between .5 and 1 for about a week or so, and now finally finished!! I will be converting to a SWG in the very near future, any recommendations would be...

Added the CYA today, dissolving it in a skimmer sock. Will measure it in a week, target is 30 PPM for now. As promised, here are today's photos: [attachment=1:34xtm62p]IMG_0237_r.jpg[/attachment:34xtm62p] And.... [attachment=0:34xtm62p]IMG_0239_r.jpg[/attachment:34xtm62p] Thanks Again!!!!

The pool water is crystal clear, blue, and sparkles!!! If the sun comes out today, I will take a picture and post later.

I believe we have a OCLT PASS!!! After removing the filter mid-day yesterday, I FINALLY have 0 FC loss overnight!! 2-25 9:00 PM FC 19 CC 1 2-26 6:00 AM FC 19 CC 1 Now I need to get the CYA in (up to 30 ppm), and then get the CC down to .5 or less for 2 consecutive days, correct? THANK YOU...

Thanks everyone. I replaced the filter today, so we will see how it goes tonight. I can tell you there was still quite a bit of orange scum trapped deep in the pleats of the filter. The high chlorine was also starting to deteriorate the rubber on the ends of the filter..... New filter in, and...

2-25 6:00 AM FC 17 CC 1.5 It rained some overnight and is light drizzling right now...... bummer....

Was a bit too heavy handed on adding the chlorine tonight.... but CC is almost zero..... 2-25 7:45 PM FC 24 CC .5 Have to see in the morning how the FC holds up.... It has to be getting close...... Thanks to everyone for their feedback and encouraging words. I know it will get there!!!

2-24 6:00 AM FC 17.5 CC 1.5 I did find 2 fairly large bugs that has wandered into the pool and were at the bottom. Fished em' out this morning.

Thanks Dave, appreciate your help along the way, and the great customer service you have provided with your test kits and refills!! My ultimate goal is to put in a SWG once I get things stabilized. The pool has not looked this good in many many years!!!! Hopefully this will be done soon...

Still patiently shocking the pool every day. There is still something in the pool that is consuming >1 FC every night. 2-22 9:00 PM FC 22 CC 1 2-23 6:00 AM FC 18.5 CC 2 I am brushing and vacuuming, as well as hosing out the filter frequently. I can still see particles circulating in the...

The pool is crystal clear now, no more green tint. I think I am getting closer now. tonight's reading showed CC down to 3, which is lower than it has ever been. Will see how much FC drops overnight. Has been dropping 2-4 points per night lately. That CDX stuff is hard to kill ...... Still...
