Hi, I just opened my pool this week - opened it before the water temp hit 50 to beat the algae. The water is looking clear/good and my chemicals all look good (30cya, 6 FC, 0 CC, 7.5 PH 80 TA, 30 borate) but when I first turn on my pool pump in the morning it emits a stream/cloud of dirt from...

Does anybody know why the pool calculator doesn't update the "GOAL RANGE" when changing the CYA? I changed the CYA from 25 to 80 just to see it change the GOAL RANGE but it never did. (Note: I normally keep my CYA at 40, I'm just testing the calculator) You can see at the bottom the MIN and...

I'm in process of repairing my "Aquaslide N Dive" pool slide. Eventually I'll get to resurfacing the slide itself, but right now I'm trying to replace the deck flange mounts which were plastic and cracked pretty bad - so I bought replacement aluminum ones. Of course while removing the nuts on...

Hi guys, I changed my pool liner myself two weekends ago and it looks great. Now I'm trying to balance the new truck delivered water (3 tankers @ 5800 gallons) and the remaining from rain/filtered well. ph: 7.4 TA: 250 FC: 5.0 CC: 0 CYA: 40 CH:150 Temp: 82 My water looks great, crystal...

Hope somebody can help me. I've been on the BBB method for five years with great results but recently my pool has been cloudy and I can't figure out why. Here's my test results: CL: 7.5 CC: 0 PH: 7.6 CYA: 35 (this one is the most difficult to read, the black dot goes away 90% at 35, but I can...

So I've been consistently using about 4ppm of chlorine per day in my pool and I was wondering if that's normal? cya: 45 ph: 7.5 alk: 175 temp: 89 The pool calculator says I need to maintain a 4-8 with my current cya so I target 6 - each morning adding a full gallon of chlorine (pool calc says...

FC = 4.5 CC = < .5 Ph = 7.5 Alk = 150 CYA= 20 So things are looking much better with my pool this year. Last year I had a CYA of 120 (yikes!) and a partial refill during the winter closing did the trick. I feel I have a good grasp on what I'm doing now. My water has never...

Here are my results per Taylor K-2006C FC = 3.5 CC = 1 Ph = 7.0 Base Demand Test= 7.5 Alk = 170 Calcium= 170 CYA= 120 My water is clear but I have a few questions: 1. I plugged all this into the pool calculator and it said to add 285 by weight of Borax. It said to do nothing about the high...

First off I'd like to say I love this site and this is my first post. I have really appreciated the knowledge I've gained over the years from reading posts from everyone. So I'm approaching 7 years on the same sand in my filter. I've been trying to decide if I should refill using Zeobrite...
