Subbing for updates as well. ***I was just able to get logged in ***** Thanks!!

Nice little project! Thanks for the info.

Pictures would be great so you can show off the progress you make going from the swamp to the crystal clean pool.

That is a pretty sweet build! Can't wait to see more pictures as it reaches completion.

Looks great!

Looks like you are off to a good start! Keep it going and don't forget to keep adding pictures. Everyone loves to see the builds in progress.

From the picture you have right now, they look pretty darn close. Will wait for your other picture at a different angle, but I think I would be ok with the new batch as of right now.

Try to think about the end picture and the beautiful pool you will be able to relax in. Keep posting pictures for us as you progress.

As the others stated, drain it down so the skimmer can be effective again.

That is almost scary the amounts you are getting. Where do they come from? I have not seen any of those in our pool before and hope we don't. I know the wife and kids would be out until its fixed. ps.. I recommend you go a head and at least get started with the bleach. Once you get the test...

Norwei, that is what we did on our pool. Been like this part of last season and so far all of this season with no issues.

The number one first thing to get is a good test kit. It will save you a ton of headache if you need help with water problems. Best investment I have made next to finding this site.

Have you tried feeling it? Is it slimy or is it gritty? That may help others give you better feedback based on your response.

I would agree with Jeff405. If it were me, I would drain it and make it right. Otherwise, mother nature will drain it herself in a matter of time and you will be having to patch or purchase a new liner. I don't think the warranty will cover that type of damage. It's Just not worth the risk...

I would have to go back and look, but I run my Intex generator for 10 hours during the evening hours and it seems to hold pretty steady for me. I have my timer set to run my pump around 12 hours and that gives the swg plenty of time to run its 10 hour cycle. So far, that has worked great...

I recently picked up a timer for my pump. I have the salt water generator plugged into its own outlet with power 24/7. I then have the pump on the timer which kicks on for 10 hours during the afternoon and evening. Here is what we got from amazon...

very excited to see some updates pics with it full.

That is what I was just double checkiing on in the pool school. Drop PH and start and start slamming. Thanks!

17,000 gallon IG vinyl FC = 0 CC = 0( from 0 FC I guess? After testing FC, adding the 5 drops of R-0003, it did not change the color) PH = 8.2 TA = 130 CYA = 20 Pool has green tint, can't see bottom. First steps? Slam process to get FC up and try to clear up the green tint? or do we address...

One big item, that is free that I didn't notice listed in the other replies is patience. If things start to get out of whack, you will find all the info and help here on the forums. When you start working to correct those out of whack problems, you will need to have patience. Other then what...

Almost time for us to close up as well here in Southern Indiana. Even with the solar cover on, pool temp is barely holding at 70. With our upper 40's and low 50's at night, won't be much longer before water temp hits 60. How does your winter cover fit between the deck and the pool? Do you...

Just wow!

We want to see inside the hole you cut!! Post all the pictures you can put up!

Go with what everyone is telling you. Have faith in the process and you will be happy you did. This is a great site and lots of great people to help guide you through the process. Won't be long and you will be posting pictures of a sparkling pool.

Looks pretty good.

Seen that happen to a friend on a 24ft pool last summer. I stopped by to help and found the ground was not level on that side of the pool that was jumping out of the track. Sometimes just using the eyeball to level doesn't work 100%. I would for sure check to make sure the ground is level in...

I recently added 4 lbs in a sock in front of the skimmer and within a few hours( 3 or 4 ), it was pretty much all gone. Mine was purchased at Walmart as well.

Re: Spa wall coping job well done? Your opinion please - pic I think what UnderWaterVanya means is that they should probably replace the tile and make it right. Do you happen to have any pics of the tile before they started?

I am with everyone else with the cover off. I wish that was a problem here in Southern Indiana. Weather has been so bad, water is down to 75. We need the rain and cool weather to go away and bring back some sunshine.

Simple enough answer, I know we have some metals in the well. That was the issue we had to fight with when filling the intex pool. I will run a hose to the basement. Pool is looking good and I don't want to do anything that can change that. Thanks!
