My chlorine level is 7 but my free chlorine is 0. All other levels are within the normal range except for CYA which is low. What can I do to get the free chlorine up?

I had been getting dirt in my pool. Thinking it was a broken layers I replaced al the laterals and center pipe. I also put on a new spider gasket. I STILL have dirt in the bottom of my pool. I know it’s coming from my filter because I tied a sock on the output and the dirt is not on the floor of...

I am having a very similar problem. I replaced all my pump parts including laterals and spider gasket. I attached a sock to the filter output in the pool. And the sock is brown. No more dirt in the pool, but it is definitely coming in through the filter. I have no idea what the solution is since...

Can you use zeosand in an Intex pump? I have a lot of dirt coming in through pump. I replaced all the laterals and center pipe. I’m using zeosand for my filter media.

Thanks!!! I just replaced the sand and am worried there might be something wrong with the pump possibly.

When I vacuum it to waste it is very brown as it passes through the glass.

Ok. Thanks. I switched to take k-2006 this year so I could get more accurate results. I don’t seem to be losing chlorine.

I keep having this brown dirt appear in my pool. We have tried vacuuming it to waste but it comes back the next day. It settles in the seams of the pool liner. I have kept my chlorine at a 6 (cya at 30) for the last 4 days. It does not seem to be doing anything. It poofs when brushed. does...

Yes. Sorry. Seams of the filter

It does go poof. I haven’t felt it. It’s too cold for me to get in still!!

What is the best economical vacuum to get small brown dust out of pool? It settles along the seams of the filters.

What is the best sand for an Intex sand filter?

Do you have any tips on how to use it successfully?

What size particles are in zeosand? Trying to figure it out if it’s too small for my pump. Thanks!

Is a cracked lateral obvious? Or could it be something really small?

Yes both of those

My sand pump is leaking Sand into the pool. I have checked all the laterals and don’t see any cracks. Would it be obvious? The pipe is also crack free. I just put a brand new 7 way valve on it. Any help or recommendations would be appreciated!!!

My pool filter is spitting sand in the pool. I have looked at the laterals and nothing seems to be cracked but I don’t know what that looks like. Would it be super obvious? The pipe seems good. We have a brand new multi port valve. Any recommendations on what I could do to fix this?

Can I add muriatic acid if my chlorine is at a 5? Or do I need to wait for that to go down?

Yes. I stopped when I got to 180 with the test kit.

Is it bad to use dry acid? I have some of that. I had a pool guy last year but want to do it myself this year.

What kind of acid is best to use

Hi. I have an 8400 gallon above ground pool. I drained and refilled. My alkalinity is over 180. What is the best way to lower it? PH is reading 8.1

I’m not sure. I have no idea what it is. It was green before I put anything from the pool store in it. The man who cleans my pool used liquid chlorine and cal hypo. After he left it turned from clear to green.

Ok. ThankS for your help! The pool did literally turn green over night. It was crystal clear Monday and green on Tuesday. That’s why I’m so perplexed.

thanks. Even though my chlorine is very high. The water looks like this. I had them test it at leslies and they said the CYA is at 70. I was unable to get an actual test kit today.
