I had tried that (as it seemed the logical first thing to try to cancel) but apparently I didn't hold it long enough!!! Thanks for finding that in the manual for me - apparently my "search" didn't work very well. Now I held it longer and it canceled, so I was able to lower the chlorine flow to...

I ran out of all my chlorine testing chemicals, and so I ordered more. When I got the new one, I thought it was the quick test one, but it was actually the more advanced test one (which I hadn't run out of) and when I tested, I thought my chlorine was 0. Turns out it is 1.5ppm for salt pool...

Thx

Which one did you use?

Thank you!

Thank you. I have a 12'x31' pool with 15" wide coping. No deck. I have an existing patio that is 6 years old adjacent to the short end of the pool that is about 12'x11' basically. I never sealed it, nor my front walkway and patio in the front yard that are all irregular bluestone and have been...

Thx. I did a little sample of dry treat and it seemed not to change the color or look at all, although I also tried it on my patio and it did change that (lighten) which was partially in my concern. No freezing temps here (very rare). Pennsylvania Blue Thermal Bluestone, as far as I know...

Just make sure they have a very experienced installer for the glass tile. It is easy to screw up apparently. I wish I hired the tiler myself.

I recently got Blue Granite. Do you want to post your pool pics for comparison? Is it too light?

My bluestone coverlids were finally installed. My PB suggested sealing the thermal bluestone coping and coverlids with a penetrating sealer because I have a saltwater pool. I asked the local supplier store of bluestone coping and they recommended Stainproof 40SK (Dry Treat brand). The PB said...

Oh, that big, ugly, protruding ring? It is a Badu Imperial Swim Jet. I decided to include it because I wasn't sure if 31' would be sufficient for swimming laps and I thought it was better to have it just in case. I did swim laps in my pool one day and it was perfectly fine length (yes, I turned...

Oh, that is beautiful lighting! Thank you for your help and input. I measured my lights: -deep end light is 5' from end of pool and 16" beneath water line. It is under one of my 2 side filters. -shallow end light is 6 1/2' from other end of pool and 24" beneath water line -spa light is centered...

Thanks. I figure the quick test is nice for a daily test of chlorine and pH, and the other one is good if something looks wrong. Maybe I'm wrong?

Thank you. Is this where you would have put it if I was having an additional light, or where you would have put it if only one light in that section? So if I am going to do it, would you place it directly under where my first side filter is (visible in the morning shade photo)? I will try to...

Thank you for the Jandy guides. Yes the lights are Jandy Watercolors Nicheless LED Lights "Hypercool" (good thing the garbage hasn't been hauled). Grey fittings. Pool perpendicular to house and lights placed on the wall so that they face away from the yard and the deck, so that was correct. But...

Thank you. This is good to know. Now there is .5 chlorine according to quick test so opposite issue. Hopefully they will come tomorrow to check, as I was told Wednesday...

I started with the regular test that should be yellow and was orange. This told me something was wronh. Then I did the follow up test with the powder and drops to determine CC and FC making pink clear. The first test doesn't have a way to tell those numbers so the only way I could have posted...

Thank you. Would they add pebblesheen or just plaster? Is it just a tiny bit? Trying to imagine.

RIGHT? I wish I understood while building what hole was for what, but I just trusted the PB, and he clearly didn't check and just trusted his electrician. As for which wall - I think they put the lights on that wall of the pool because from our deck, you wouldn't see the fixtures in the wall or...

I did, that was how I was able to come up with the CC and FC. But thanks :). We swam and smelled like chlorine and figured one day wouldn't kill us. The next day it was down to 1. I think they come tomorrow so hopefully they will balance it better.

My PB said 2 pool lights and 1 spa light would be enough for my 12x31 pool with integrated 5x7 spa. Unfortunately, the placement of one of the pool lights was poor - it is almost at the end of the deep end near my deep end bench, so the middle of the pool, where my stairs are located, is very...

But should I worry about the CC?

And I am going to go on your input and jump in :). I can't wait any longer.
