    I suspect another driving factor here is that ProTeam (unknown by me at the time) has apparently not gone through the steps necessary to ship Boric Acid products to California, yet I was still able to make a purchase through PoolGeek (who btw couldn't care less when I contacted them).

    New Weber Grill

    I have the 4-burner black enamel version and agree, these grills are the best. Used to have a stainless Jenn-Air, but it was hard to keep clean and the lighter didn't always work (a pet peeve). My favorite feature is the Weber lighter; when you click the lighter it doesn't produce a spark, but...

    Contacted ProTeam today and was happy to see that they were concerned with what happened. They confirmed the impact to TA level should have been negligible. They asked for the batch number on my container and seemed sincere that they were going to investigate the issue from their end. He is also...

    I'm going to contact ProTeam tomorrow to see if they have received similar reports. In the mean time I get to enjoy the unending sound of water features :lol:

    Will do. Before the drain, CH was about 300 and I was getting some scale, so I used 2/3's soft water on the refill ending up with a 125 reading. Now I realize the problem was not CH but the higher PH I kept battling. Keeping TA/PH at recommended TFP levels should do the trick.

    The PB did indeed push the pucks (with an in-line feeder) and in my ignorance I went that route. I'm now in transition, just finished a 75% drain which reduced CYA to 38 (from 151), and using pucks/shock just to restart. I plan to use bleach moving forward. The water looked great before and...

    Hi all, Been lurking for awhile and recently joined. I've learned a lot from this site, thank you (Chem Geek, I live in Manteca and I can feel your brain power from here!). I have a pail of Proteam Supreme Plus waiting in the garage to serve me and my family. I want to make sure my TA/PH is...
