    Cloudy water- new pool owner

    Tested the water this morning and FC was still at 18, but now I have 0 CC. Is that bad to have CC of 0? PH is 7.8. It is sloooowly getting clearer. I can now see the main drain is white and can see the little holes in drain cover which I wasnt able to see before. Sadly, now that it is...

    Cloudy water- new pool owner

    I am still slamming currently. I've seen only slight improvement. However, I was just wondering if I should still have chlorine tabs in the in line chlorinator still ? With the TFP method I understand its okay to use them in addition to liquid as long as my CYA doesnt get to high? But I...

    So do I test CYA often during this process? When I started Saturday it was at 50, so I maintained 20FC. Today I tested CYA and its 40, is that reliable and I should now maintain a lower FC based on the new CYA? Or should I stick with my initial CYA of 50? How do I know when it's clear enough...

    Yes I've test 3-4x daily and added to maintain 20FC. Yesterday and today I've noticed it is much clearer, though I'm not sure it's clear enough. But I'm starting to worry because I'm being told I'm going to ruin the vinyl liner and bleach it out. Is this true? I still see a lot of small dark...

    A couple of questions. See attached photo. Is this good for the SLAM process? And when I log into Pool Math do I log it as Bleach at 12.5%? Last night I put 4 gal in and the FC is just now dropping at almost 8:00PM the following day to 19. So I assume I need to use Pool Math which at the...

    The results I posted are from the Taylor test kit I used today (5/19 )for the first time so I'm hoping I did it correctly. I will try to attach a photo from my readings from the pool store which was on 5/14. I then added the 6 lbs of stabilizer and Pool First Aid. It has been 5 days and no...
