After draining pool to further support the pools legs from sinking into soft ground. The pool is leveled. Pool chemistry has been applied. I tested last night and my readings via the Taylor FAS-DPD kit are FC: 6 ppm CC: 05 ppm PH: 7.4 CYA: 45 ppm TA: 120 Calcium Hardness: 250 I set the Pump...

Decided to drain the pool and fix the 1.5 " slope. 12"x 12" pavers under the legs of the pool will help the legs sinking into soft ground. Thank you for the help.

Thank you for the peace of mind. Indeed, I used the taylor FAS-DPD k 2006 test kit for the PH, FC and the CC. I figured I needed more accurate readings on those items. The test strips where just a quick range of where I was at... That's why I disclosed the test strip use. I'll put in my...

Last night I added 1lb of cal hypo (48%) and 2 lb 15 oz of CYA. Testing shows PH of 6.8 or less FC 16.5 CC .5 TA- Strip test 80-120 CYA- Strip test 30-50 I am worried about the low PH. Pool Calculator tells us to add 2 lbs of borax to raise PH to appropriate levels. I will be able to do this...

Great! Thank you for this resource. I have found "trouble free pools" to be vital to my research on how to successfully launch a pool.

Hello All, This season I will be setting up a new 16ft AGP. I have read the suggested reading and understand what has been communicated. One question I have not seen answered in regard to pool chemistry is; do you need to shock a pool when a SWG is being used?
