Sound familiar? 😀 @Newdude

Thank you!

The snowflakes returned, forming another pile on the steps. My TA has been at 70-80 since July. I have been maintaining a pH level of 7.8-8.0 for a few weeks. Do I need to maintain a PH level around 7.4-7.5 to keep the flakes away?

Will do thank you.

I have seen a few flakes floating in the pool since last week nothing to be concerned with. Today there was a little pile by the steps again. I've been maintaining a 7.3-7.4 PH I never did get the PH to 7.2 like you recommended it stopped gathering by the steps so I didn't feel it was necessary...

When I test the salt do proceed with the lighter salmon color or the darker brick red?

The flakes have stopped I'll back off the Acid. Thanks again for your help!

Yeah my PH has been running high since day one.I appreciate the feed back, Thank you!

Lower it with Acid or another product?

I noticed a white Flaky substance that gathers on my step in a pile.It’s very soft you can’t pick it up with your hands it separates and floats away.Any idea what it might be?

I felt the same way pool math recommended I add 2lbs. I waited a week and tested the water the dot was visible at 30. I added another 2lbs 3weeks later it was reading 40 I hit it again with another 2lbs and my dot disappeared and it's reading 70.I had a great teacher @Newdude .He told me be...

I love the way this color turned out.Pebble Tech Slate Blue

I thought about doing that and even cutting it. My door is a little over a 1/4 inch too wide at the top.I figured I go with the fishing string trick.I won't ever have to worry about it getting stuck again.

It works with the hole drilled at the bottom. I have had no issues since I did this. You can go a little higher if you want when you drill the hole. Also, there is enough slack to remove the skimmer lid.

My Skimmer door has been getting stuck and the pump was sucking air. So I brainstormed and came up with a solution. I drilled a small hole at the bottom of the skimmer door and ran a 10 LBS fishing line through the bottom where I drilled the hole and tied it to the skimmer lid. I made sure I had...
