    Was fighting Algae Bloom (with Leslie’s..) became TFP convert, but curious about path forward.

    Hello - so I just wanted to give an update and confirm if I should be good to exit my SLAM now. As far as the criteria goes, 2 nights ago I met all criteria, CC 0, water looks good, and I had FC loss of 1.0 overnight. Since the exit criteria says 1 or less, I assume this counts as passing...

    Okay, home finally so I was able to test, FC now at 7 so obviously needs to go way up, but it lost 7 points from 7AM to 4PM? Feels like a lot if my CYA is truly 60? I know you said CYA may take a bit to show, it’s still not even registering at a minimum of 30 on my tube, I’ve read the...

    I added one last night, all I had yesterday and stores were closed. I tried to measure but couldn’t detect as the tf pro gage only goes to 30 lowest. The 15 number was just a guess I put in since I couldn’t actually measure it. I added another gallon this morning and have not yet been able to...

    Yes, that is how I applied both gallons, and I brushed along the bottom of the pool anywhere that it may have settled some.

    Yes, I am planning to start SLAM just based off of the visible algae, so starting and holding that now. As far as the CYA, I must be missing something, the original 15 CYA was an estimate because I had 0, added 1 gallon liquid and it still couldn’t read on the TF Pro kit. So this morning I...

    Was fighting Algae Bloom (with Leslie’s..) became TFP convert, but curious about path forward.

    I meant was asking does FC being super high invalidate the test results for overnight loss. I haven’t seen anywhere it does but not sure. If not, I did the test: 9:30PM -FC 25ppm -CC 1.5 7:30AM -FC 14.5ppm -CC 0.5 So definitely still fighting some organisms, but does that much FC loss...

    Was fighting Algae Bloom (with Leslie’s..) became TFP convert, but curious about path forward.

    Oh, I wasnt really comparing the method, just trying to understand since the numbers were so far off and I am new to TFP process. I will get more stabilizer tomorrow as well as some muriatic acid and add, I had 1 gal liquid stabilizer and added that but unsurprisingly that isn't enough to...

    Hey all, Have had my pool for a few years, and really always just kind of mailed in the chlorine and never had any problems, added a bit a few times a week and everything was pretty smooth. This year however Ohio was SUPER hot for the last couple weeks, I was traveling and was not able to put...
