Is it recommended to ELEVATE when needed your CYA using 3 inch Pucks? Not sure how much stabilizer a 3" puck would add to the water but I was thinking of adding one puck in a floating basket to help keep my CYA from falling below 40. My current water test using the TF100 CYA 40 FC 6 CC 0...

I would like to increase the water circulation in my pool. The return on my pool pushes OK but would like to have more movement on the other side of the pool where my ladder sits. Is this even necessary? I keep my eye tilted toward the floor of the pool just seems like there is lots of dead...

Is there ever a time you would use flock? As posted in a earlier post, I have a high 90/100 CYA level in my pool. I know I must do a partial drain refill and retest. I know I must perform this step again and again until a min of 50 CYA is obtained. I did use pucks last year :rant: but since...

Every morning I go out to my pool and find what looks like dirt lying in puddles on the bopttom of the pool. Seems to collect more near the filter end of the pool. I left my pool open all winter (we really had no winter in South Carolina) and ran my rover weekly. At the end of the swimming...

My water temp is 49 degree and looks great. I run my pump when temps fall below freezing which is not that often here In South Carolina. My question is do I need to keep chlorine levels up some during these colder months?

What kit is the most user friendly and provides the most accurate numbers? Looking at the DPD OR FAS-DPD And before closing your pool should the water temp be at a certain temp?

Just tested my water FC 7.5 CC 0 TC 7.5 ALK 130 CH 120 PH 7.8 CYA 70 Stared using just bleach and no more pucks, will do partial drain and refill. Scrub floor and walls vacuum and put all toys/brushes in the pool for shock treatment to close. I believe the partial drain will lower my CYA...

Can someone tell me what # I should be working with. When I took my water test to Leslie Pool store they game me two numbers a ALK# and a adjusted ALK # which these #s were different. They said my adjusted ALK was low and needed adjusted. I know I need a good test kit and will get one next...

Hello all, I am new to the site and really looking forward to hearing some of your wisdom. I am a new pool owner with this year being my first. My pool did well for most of the year just a slight battle with MA (I think) right now. My pool water has always been crystal clear, but about a...
