    Question about phosphates

    @mknauss I did the OCLT-- last night TC was 5.5 and this morning (7:30a) it was 5.5 I'm attaching the other chem results from this morning too since I input all of them anyway- The CH is 300 and the TA is still at 90 with a pH over 8.2 (I think the pH is actually a little higher because it's...

    Question about phosphates

    thank heavens on that (OCLT). It was already at 3100 so hopefully it won't be too bad. Thank you. Just to clarify something on the OCLT, turn the pump on but the SWG off, correct?

    Question about phosphates

    Well in between me reading and my husband going to the store, we didn't talk before he was outside adding half a bag of salt to the pool because the store told him too. I've been taking care of this pool by myself for almost a year, perfectly, and he just came home and did what the store told...

    Question about phosphates

    My TA and pH seems to be running high the last couple weeks (I'll add the most recent test in a minute), I've been following Pool Math recommendations on muriatic acid. Today the salt cell said to inspect it so we did, we clean it monthly, along with cleaning the pool filter bi-weekly. We took...

    Chem check please

    🤦🏻‍♀️ The pH is a headache to me- I’ve been told it’s because it’s a salt generated pool and they always run higher on pH but as long as I keep the TA even it should be fine…. ? I’ll add some muratic acid tomorrow to try and get it down. Do you think the CYA is okay right now?

    Quick chemical check after Nicole

    Hi. I’m posting a pic from PoolMath on today’s tests. We got slammed in Brevard by Nicole and I think these numbers are good but just double checking.

    Just a chem check plz

    I do, yes. Sorry, then it’s 60 not 66; I misread the instructions card.

    Just a chem check plz

    The instructions on the kit I bought says to multiply the number of drops it took to turn red from green by 11. It took 6 drops…. It was actually the same last week too.

    Just a chem check plz

    CH is still okay with the CSI where it’s at, along with pH? pH just seems to stay around 7.8-8.2 even following poolmath addition of muratic acid.

    Can we talk about Calcium Hardness?

    Pool Math results yesterday (swg): FC 7; pH 8; TA 66; CH 250; CYA 60; CSI 0.02; Salt 3400...... Pool Math advises to add Calcium Chloride at 4lbs 10oz, by weight, or 74oz. Idk what calcium chloride is, I can look it up. Does this sound right? Pool Math Recommended says 250-650, Ideal 350-650...

    Calcium Hardness 2 part question...

    Ok, thanks! We're working on the pH (added the muratic acid pool math recommended for now)

    Calcium Hardness 2 part question...

    So just focus on a/the range Here, I just re-entered everything for today to get an appropriate CSI
