ive tried that, cant get anyone to come out. ill continue to try thanks again

for sure its either eroding or sinking or both. coupled with some winter heaving. At 2and 5/8 Maximum change in level is it system critical or can we get the season out of it. of courses thats a question that just isn't answerable given the gravity. thanks for you' all input

this is the lowest point or where the water rides the highest relative to the pool liner https://www.dropbox.com/s/ljwj27i615rwc96/IMG_8948.HEIC?dl=0

https://www.dropbox.com/s/03fe7kjcphoxbcl/IMG_8947.HEIC?dl=0 this is the high side, or the part of the pool wall that sits the highest relative to the pool liner even though the footer seems a little buried

Thank you Mdragger I cant get pics to load, both in their native form and then just screen shots so im going to put them on Facebook and add a link here - I measured this am while pool water is calm, the greatest variance between the highest point and the lowest point (relative) to the liner...

Hello Friends I hope everyone having a great TFP season thus far. Last year I noticed my pool wall sinking a little bit. This year it is sinking even more. Or perhaps another section of pool is heaving from water draining off the house. In any case, im concerned about the safety of the...

Another note, somehow I got in my head that based on CYA of 40-50 that my FC range to be 3-6 when it should be 4-6. That right there was a big deal...So I was doomed from the start for not paying close enough attention to the numbers. Thanks again to everyone here.

Good morning friends Im here with an update. I don't know exactly what that stuff was, but if a green filter is any indication; yes it was algae. After I added bleach rather than try to vacuum the debris i just brushed it up into the water. That seemed to be a better solution to attacking...

Thanks to all. No, the OCLT was not at 10. I guess i missed that part of pool school. pooldv - will a flocking agent solidify the debris? Texas Splash - thank you:) we had serious pollen in the spring and my tiki bar is always dusty. Last few weeks however i would say low to no pollen...

HI all, like so many others i question whether i have an algae problem or is it just mud or pollen. My pool has been crystal clear all summer, never a cloud or dis color just crystal dreamy clean. The debris on the bottom begin to accumulate slow, maybe a week to get to the point in the...

butterfly - I used a solar cover 2 days during the SLAM. took it off friday morning. @Casey thanks :D We love it, so much so the camper and the boat are STILL in storage for 2014. I doubt the boat will come out as "pool Sundays" are so relaxing and entertaining I feel guilty Monday morning...

maybe the pump. I didnt have anything in the pool, no steps or anything and the filter house is clean with a brand new filter.

:eek::eek: passed the OLCT every night since Friday until last night. Had 5.5fc and .5 CC at 7 pm and this am its down to .5 FC I cannot imagine what could be going on. The water is still quite clear. I can see debris starting to form on the bottom, grey in color. Could be dirt but I...

thats good to hear butterfly thanks for your help :D I just finished a sub pad for my heat siphon, Ill snap a few of the surrounding area and tomorrow am when i pull the solar cover off ill get the clear water view thanks :D :D :D - - - Updated - - - still a little bit of construction mode...

Missed that post Dave, thank you. Update - I SLAMd all week, finally thrs into friday morning i passed the OLCT and at 6 am Friday morning i was at FC 20.5 CYA 50 TA 120 pH 7.4 This morning, i was shocked to take my readings and find 10 ppm loss in FC in 24 hours FC 10.5 CYA 50 TA 120 pH 7.4...

yes... well theres no lightts and the ladder is on the deck :) ive scrubbed as best i can while standing on the top ring. dont think getting in the pool at FC26 or so is a good idea. speaking of appetites, thats something that i guess would be hard to determine without considering usage, but...

Hi Butteryfly, yes last summer I believe that i maintained well. RE the red lines in your sig, Im 2 for 3. After re-reading my post, my consumption went from 5 +/- mon>tues to 3 tue>wed so overnight consumption is going down. I tested CC monday but have not tues or this am. It was 0.0 Mon...

Preface this with an issue i had last week regarding test kit quality. replaced kit from tftestkits.com my pool since its opening this year has had a ferocious appetite for chlorine. 5-6 ppm a day. I know theres something in there but its crystal clear Since opening 2 weeks ago Ive added 9...

Re: wacky chem readings crystal clear pool thanks butterfly I thought thats what you were referring to. Ill do that this afternoon when get known good cya reagent.

Re: wacky chem readings crystal clear pool Im not sure what the dilution method is a variation on the instructions from the tft kit. but yes i fill the bottle to mark, then fill with r013 and fill the tube til the black dot is gone. However I am suspect at the age of the testing reagents...

EDIT: Its confirmed my test kit was contaminated either by heat/cold or just plain old age. In any case Im leaving the original thread unedited to illustrate how important keeping test kits current, perhaps even fresh kit every year. The values for pH CYA and FC tests were inaccurate, all due...

agreed. I ran out of some of my tft100 kit supplies (ordered refills) and so i took a sample to the pool store. I went to the "testing" station and the young girl pulled out a container of test strips and i was like, uhhhh....lol anyways yea strips are useless and a pool store that would rely...

I would like to add that putting those pucks into your skimmer basket might cause problems for your filter. fill out your sig so we know what your filtering with but until then may I ask if when using those pucks do you ever get a black ring inside the skimmer basket? those pucks are binded...

Just wanted to report back, looking good! Water crystal clear Here's my numbers Ph 7.1 FC 16 alk 80 cya 35-40 I've added zero shock or any chlorine since Tuesday. There's 2 little bits if puc in the skimmer that I had put in there Sunday. I needed chlorine and CYA so using the pucs made...
