I ordered one and will try it out tomorrow once it comes in. Thank you!

I wanted to inquire with everyone here about how to remedy my hot pool water. It’s basically like taking a bath except outside. I have a water fall and my pool runs during the day time to ensure I don’t lose my FC level. I currently lose 3ppm from sunlight and my SWG is set to make up for it. I...

OCLT passed no problem. Ran the pump for 24 hours and I'm crystal clear again. I suspect it was the brand of liquid chlorine I was using to boost my FC up while my SWG is out of order. All in all everything looks good now! Thanks again for the advice!

Hello, Today when I got home from work my pool was cloudy. It’s been clear for several months now by using the TFP method and not going to the pool store. So I really thought this was odd. My SWG recently went out so I’ve been having to use liquid chlorine or bleach. Just a little back ground...

Nevermind I search on here I’ll use bleach and liquid chlorine instead of tablets.

Ok sounds great thank you for the advice, in the meantime what is the best chlorine tablet to use?

Roger! I was referring to my power center that says intellichlor on it, but yes I have an IC30. I contacted the pool builder and he is taking care of it. Is this a common occurrence? The reason I ask is they are costly so I don’t want to run out of warranty and have to buy one every 6 months.

I noticed today that my SWG was lit up. After some troubleshooting I found the 10 amp fuse to be blown inside. I replaced it twice and it’s blowing the fuse when the pump is turned on. What could I do about this? Videos show replace my cell, but there has to be a trouble free way? This thing is...

Awesome! I appreciate everyone's input. This confirms it for me that I won't be using any Clorox products.

Thanks! I should have stopped the pump to get the water calm because the pictures would have looked a lot better :) I basically judge the clarity of it by standing at my back patio door with is about 50 ft from the shallow end of the pool and if I can see the main drains and robot vac then it's...

This is a general question about using a specific brand of chemicals. I was told to never use the Clorox brand under any circumstances because it adds unnecessary things to the water. I'm just wanting to know if this is true or not?

The TFP method! Passed all three test. FC was 28 when I tested last night and 28 this morning when I tested again. CC is and has remained at zero. The last step is shown below! If anyone seeing this post is skeptical of the TFP method trust me it works!

Thank you!

Once all test are pasted what’s the optimal time to turn my SWG back on to the proper setting? And begin balancing everything again? I know I have to let the FC coast down but just want to make sure my pool stays optimal.

The SLAM is going well and I’ve been keep updates via my logs. I’ve posted a few pictures below for viewing. Trust the TFP method and the SLAM :) still continuing the process until it’s super clear!

Heck yeah, I appreciate the information. I will run my waterfall for at least an hour to ensure it's moving the water appropriately as well. I'll use the 70 Cya round up and boost the slam FC up. Unfortunately, this may take longer for me than the usual for others due to my work schedule but...

Before a rain, I usually Ok thank you I’ll try this for the next event.

Anything special to do before a rain event to ensure my water stays clear? I hear of most people never having a problem when it rains, but for some reason mine clouded up and I’m currently slamming after confirming my OCLT and Overnight gain test we’re good.

Thank you very much. I have switched to the 10ml sample to save on supplies. I'll be sure to indicated decimals when appropriate to ensure everything is accurate. :)

Started doing the Slam process yesterday and been keeping notes in my logs. Appears to be clearing slightly but slowly. FC was 25 this morning and I’ll check again after work. Temperatures are around freezing or just above so hopefully I retain my high FC for slamming. I stocked up on good...

Ok I will preform the SLAM. I appreciate the advice!

I can slam for sure, but why did I pass an OCLT test? That’s what bothers me and there isn’t a green tint it’s blue blue but cloudy :-( logs go back to when I started testing my own water.

I did my evening test and will do the FC again in the morning. The SWG is at 100%. Below are the results and this thing is getting depressing I really think something is wrong with my pool. My buddies pool doesn’t ever cloud up when it rains. Only thing I noticed is my salt is high and I’m...
