He most definitely is capable but he is rarely home with work, football and wrestling. He hates the pool 😂 Anyway, got home late last night and this morn I came out to an aqua pool and could see the bottom well. Lots of debris from storms yesterday as well. I gave her a schedule to follow...

Sounds good. I was hoping to have it done by the time we left. Yesterday, I didn’t lose much at all. It’s seems so different then it was last year. We leave again a few days after we get back for the weekend too…my 16 yr old will be here though so I’m hoping he will help take care of it for me...

Well, thank you. I’ll figure something out. She is mid 70’s, FaceTime is not an option. She’s mainly there to keep my dogs fed and watered lol.

Well, I won’t see her before. She lives 3 hrs from us. I’m going to ask her to add morn and night. I just don’t want it to be any worse when we get home.

Well, no change as of now. My new issue is we leave town tomorrow morning and will not be home until late Monday eve. My mother I. Law will be here taking care of our pets. How much chlorine should I have her add daily?

Until I forget again 😆 Terrible memory

And that is why I made sure to check! Especially when she said I needed a $50 bottle of something. Just retested (weather has been awful) FC 7.5 PH 7.2! Now one more question… I rechecked CYA yesterday after reading some other threads. I had originally started at 30, but I did the test...

7.5

I just tested fc/ph then lowered ph. How long do I wait to retest ph?

Thank you! I’ll head out here after this storm passes.

I just want to make sure I’m doing this right…I should go retest PH and lower then start slam? Sorry, not sure what to do lol

So fc this morn was 16 when I tested. I didn’t do anything to pool. Just took samples in. Her test shows 9. I haven’t gone out to recheck but heading there in a few.

Yes, she did individual tests.

No acid?

Okay, I made it in to get my water tested. I’ve seen zero improvement over the weekend with lots of cleaning, brushing and testing. No copper or iron. Her suggestions were 3/4 gall acid, then 2 gall shock then a $50 bottle of revive. I’m all ears! I do have the acid but would like to know what...

I’m going to continue until Monday then if no change I can go to a different pool store a little further. They close early on Saturday which is why I don’t go. I was planning on continuing the slam and On Monday going to a store a little further away to check for metals if there is no change...

One more thing, the place I used to go to said they don’t test for specific metals, just the overall hardness…will that work? Just want to make sure before I drive over.

Okay I will run a sample in. I don’t believe it was even a full bottle. This is what we used.

Here’s something else…I was just reading through last year’s dilemma and a lady had commented on the color of my pool at the time explaining the diff colors. She mentioned algaecide containing metal. Fast forward to a few wks ago, right before our pool was filled, we had a few inches in the...

K I’ll go get some. I did find a large screw inside of the pool yesterday?? I made sure everything was out of the pool, brushing, skimming etc…cleaning filters every 2-3 hrs

Is it normal to not lose FC overnight during a slam? Pool is obviously still green but I didn’t lose any at all.

Thank you!

Okay, I thought so I just wasn’t certain. I’ll get going.
