Any local pool store that sales Taylor refills should have it. My local pool store has for about $10.

Thanks, I found this page through my searching and am posting it here in case anyone else needs it. http://www.poolsolutions.com/kit/ps234_taylor_crossmatch.html

I have been using the test kit from Pool Solutions and am in need of some refills. Can someone tell me what the Taylor equivalents are for the ones listed below. I would like to purchase these locally so I can get them quickly. FAS-DPD #2 (I think this one is R-0871) FAS-DPD #3 Thanks

The pumps that I am looking at all say they are for 1.5" pipe. My current piping is all 2". Can I just use a reducer or will I need to change out the pipe?

Anyone?

Just as I suspected, the pump is completely seized up. I read through that hayward worksheet, and that was a lot of info. I will be replacing the pump and impeller but I need to do this as economically as possible. I did the math on the worksheet and my pool is 19805 gallons I have 2" piping...

I read through pool school but did not see an article about pump sizing, just pump basics. How can I tell which pump or motor I need to work with my filter and pool?

I think it is time to replace my pool pump this year. It was making a horrible noise at the end of last season and I fully expect it to not spin at all when I fire it up this weekend. I have a 29' round AG pool with 48" walls. I believe it is about 19,000 gallons. I currently have a 1.5hp pump...

After doing some searching online, I have found some talk about TDS, or Total Dissolved Solids. Apparently if this is too high it can cause a bad taste. Do you know of a way to test for TDS?

FC 3.5 CC 0 Ph 7.8 - 8.5 TA 310 Cal 71 CYA 50 The Ph and TA are much much higher then the last test done about a week ago. These tests were taken about 30min after a rain though, if that makes a difference. A week ago the Ph was 7.5 ans TA was about 220. The bad taste has been there since...

You might want to look into one of these. I have not tried them yet, but it is on my list to buy.

What could be causing the water to taste bad? I started this season with an uncovered swamp. But have a crystal clear pool now with good chemical levels. My TA is high at around 200, but everything else is in range. I use bleach for chlorine. The only thing I have down differently this year is...

How full should the sand filter be? When I looked in mine the other day, it is no more then 3/4 of the way full. I am not sure what size it is, but it measure about 24" tall and 21" wide.

Where should I look for one of these motors, and what brand?

I have an above ground pool that is about 20,000 gallons. It came with a 1.5hp Astral pump and a sand filter, which I do not know it's size. I run this pump for 2 four hour session each day during the season. This causes a significant rise in the electrical bill. I have been thinking of...

No, I did not drain the pool. My cya was around 30 - 40 at the end of last season. But I did leave the pool uncovered all winter, (due to a very hectic work schedule and a bit of procrastination) I am not sure if that attributed to the 0 reading or not. That being said, I am happy to report...

Pool is still cloudy this evening, however, I can now see the bottom and it is looking blue. My FC is holding over night, but not at all during the day. After reading 15 FC this morning, I told my wife to add a jug before lunch and another a couple of hours later. When I arrived home from work...

As of 7:30 am: FC 15 CC .5 The water is blue, but cloudy. Can't see the bottom yet, but there are no traces of green.

Well, I ran out of drops before I could complete my test this morning. So here it goes again. As of 9:49pm FC 16.5 CC .5

9pm test results: FC 20 CC .5 pH 7.2 Alk 260 Cal 90 Cya 50 I had to add quite a bit of chlorine today. I checked the levels every 30 min to an hour and used about 7 gallons of bleach, but it has been steady since the sun went down. Will check again before work in the morning.

Well that's just it. I used it before posting here. :cry:

Thanks, I am at the turquoise color this today. It is getting better. I have been using BBB for 3 years now, and have been very happy with it, just got a little impatient with the green muck, which was my fault, btw. Is there anything I need to do in regards to putting that sodium bromide in...

My latest test results just taken are as follows. FC 15 CC .5 pH 7.5 Alk 300 Cal 90 Cya 30 Temp 76 I have been fighting this since last weekend. I have trying to keep the FC at 15 or above and i have removed as much of the leaves and acorns from the pool that I can. But I just can't seem to...
