Hi thanks...no I can't capture it , I Also tried for 1 hour to cover the returns with the same you use for the skimmer sock.....but got nothing in it.....

Hi thanks, I'll answer each question best I can. 1) is it algae... would it not be all over the floor, not Just where the returns are .( I've still not a good test kit , due to shipping problems. 2) dust.....is everywhere, I live in a village and loads of dust..(but I thought that dust\dirt...

Does that mean having to empty the whole Filter...I forgot to mention it's not 'sand' in my Filter but Zelbrite medium..

Hi , Well I turned the MD off and I still have the same problem. This morning before I turned the pump on there was no 'dirt' on the floor, within 30mins the the dirt was back. Showing in the grout lines.. Any ideas please

Hi. No the water level doesn't drop when all turned off.. I'll just do as you say and turn MD off... I just thought it would be better for circulation. Thanks

Hello, Every day when I run the pump, dirt is showing on the floor from the returns.... First I thought it was dead algae, so vacuumed everyday..... Then now I have turned the main drain off, so only running the skimmer and the dirt has gone..... So it must be from. The main drain when it's...

OK thanks..

Hi. I've brought an acid dosing pump and just thinking best place to install the inlet feed..... Either before the SWG (would it help clean the cell) or after onto the return line. Thanks

Hi all, now my PH only rises 0.1 per day (hope it stays that way), so im thinking my TA has been lowered, using the system TFP suggested thanks.

Thanks that's what I thought... Just wanted to clarify with people that knkw more then me

Hi thank you. Now for about 2 weeks I have let PH go to 8.0 then add Acid to reduce to 7.2, but TA is still not reducing..following TFP suggestion.Although I know it can take time.. The problem is I will be leaving the pool soon and leaving it to family to take care... So I want to make it as...

Hi Jim, Thanks, i have dosed for the last 2 weeks....i get it down to 7.2, then everyday it rises 0.2. Today it was at 8.0 so added 25oz of MA, now 7.4. The reason i think i need a 'dosing pump' as I will not be home all the time, sometimes away fo 4-5-6 months and dont really want the family...

Hi, Ive worked it out that i have to add 14oz of MA every day to keep my PH balanced at the same level. So is it better to buy a dosing pump , so less interaction with the chemical... Your thoughts please.

Yep i have poor test equipment available here... Thanks for the reply tho

Thanks.. Just checked again 7 hour's after and SWG been on . FC 4 TC 25 Not sure what this means now...

Yesterday 8am CYA 100 PH 7. 6 TA 120 FC 2 TC 25 CL 5.0 I ran my SWG for 10 hours at 100% to try and raise the FC to 5 (but FC did not change). Swam in the pool in the evening and then took a reading. FC stayed the same but lost TC now at 0. I have noticed black algae starting to appear in the...

Attached are the test strip.

Hi all little update. Although I have not got a Talyor 2006k test kit (which believe me I'm trying to get or the LaMotta 2077). If anyone could help getting good test kit to Thailand please let me know. So now with the limited test kits I have. PH 7.4 TA 120 FC 3 TC 25 CYA 60 to 100 (test...

Yes you are correct TA still 120 , I have added more MA and now PH 7.2 I will areate today to take PH up to 7.6 then add MA to reduce PH again. I believe have to keep doing this untill TA reduces. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm new to this game. Also what is the advised maximum MA to add...

I'm trying to track down a good test kit, but finding it hard as some companies don't deliver to my address..

Thanks,..ok I'll keep testing and learning.

Latest update. I have followed the guidelines from the forum I lowered PH to 7.4 and this also lowered TA to 80 I added Chlorine to bring FC to 3 CYA is about 50 but my test strip is not that accurate it seems. SWG is working and producing Chlorine. I think the main reasons I was having...

Thanks for the info. I wrote it wrongly, as I understand it turns off and on when required, but previously when PH was at 7.6 the SWG would be working ok. Now it seems when the PH is 7.8 or above there are 2 red LED lights displaying , which in the manual States "low or no salt" - Add salt to...

Yesterday I added Acid to bring PH down to 7.6. Tested again today and back to PH .7.8. How much acid is it safe to put in a pool in 1 day.... My SWG doesn't seem to like 7.8 as it keeps turning off.. I was wanting to bring PH down to 7 and hopefully lower the TA as well.

Yes Test via the 14 in 1 test strips. I'll be looking to purchase a better method.
