    Can I make this swimmable tomorrow?

    @socra Imagine pools doesn't show an "infinity" model, and the specs on my 2021 Leisure Pools "The Infinity" 40' was more like 23k gallons by my memory. For whatever reason Leisure no longer shows pool volumes on their site. If your adds are coming up significantly light you might want to...

    Help with CH Test

    I'm clearly doing something wrong with my CH test, as in the past 24 hours my results have ranged from 175-800 ppm despite no Ca additions or drains. I did back-to-back tests from the same larger sample last night and got wildly different answers, 550 and 800. This morning I got 175. Something...

    TF-Pro Salt?

    So my tf-pro salt test kit arrived today, just did my first analysis, but there's no borate test in the kit. My builder told me to "add a box of borax every three weeks so your chemistry stays locked in," and I did put a box in about 2 weeks ago. What test do I need for borates? On a...

    Hi Everyone, My fiberglass pool and tanning ledge are finally installed and leak-free, so now I'm a brand new pool owner with a ~24k gallon inground pool, SWG, hayward equipment, and very little idea what I'm doing. Lots of questions on my end, and lots of reading to do, but first I've got to...
