Thank you!

I gave test results prior to starting slam... as results now wouldn’t be helpful. my pump runs 9 am to 6pm... SWG IS SET AT 50% this time a year. i was using 60 cya....which says min Fc is 3.... i guess i need to plan for higher ... although when i test... my chlorine has not dropped below 5...

If i can ever beat this thing i will vow to keep it higher in future.. i always thought the benefit of an SWG was being able to keep a lower chlorine level? 🤷🏼‍♀️ at this point Im gonna let the chlorine drop to 10 ...keep it there until after my 4 th of july party ....then start the slam...

Ps... sorry i also forgot to add i was using this chart for what to keep my chlorine levels.. i thought at 5 i was good ...

My regents are 6 months old....

Thanks...i thought 60;was a good number for a SWG POOL.... ill let the rain dilute it more. so what can i possibly be fighting that i cant see?

after finding this site.... i truly had a trouble free pool for a long time..... but this past year has been a struggle. I repeatedly have slight algae... it shows up one day when i do my normal brushing of the sides. I get a slight green cloud. So I SLAM it...... after several day I pass...

Thanks Chris... I thought I had been keeping it higher than needed.... the CYA chart for SWG pools doesn’t list a SLAM chlorine target for 50 CYA? Yes... pool looks good until I brush... then I get. Pale green cloud and a little green blush on some walls in the shade

Ok...so i guess i should just leave my CYA at 50 and start the slam?

I usally test with k-1000 avery other day ir so...I use the FAS-DPD when i run full results once a week or so....what iw as saying is the the k-1000 has show chlorine to be in the highest range it measures...it has not dropped at all which is why I'm wondering what imdid wrong to end up with...

I have a spa with spillway waterfall ...no algae behind it. Photo taken just now

Keeping it at 24 ppm. Last one i did 4 OCLT before i passed...i donot run generator when slamming.

Chris ...to be honest...I just am not believing my chlorine test...but BOTH the FAS-DPD and the tayor K-1000 agree with each other. Pump is running from 9a-6p and generator is running at 50%. pool looks clean...until you brush. Then i get a cloud of pale green. I brush everyday. No...

Yes....18 drops to clear

Ok...I’ve got algae again so planning another slam...we just had a large rain event...my CYA is low ..50. Do i raise that before I slam? my chlorine is still pretty high so I really dont know why i got algae again?? here are numbers FC 9 CC .5 PH 7.2 TA 120 CH 320 CYA50 i looked...

Can some one tell me why the Chlorine/. CYA chart for SWG pools say 60 CYA Is NOT recommended? I usually keep my pool around 60 CYA...that is within the acceptable levels? thank you lisa

Good morning, i have been struggling with returning Algae in my pool. completed and passed TWO SLAMS...but the algae comes back. I have been testing daily with my k-1000 kit and i always show in the 5-10 range...week,y test with the regent have consistent at 8-9 . ive been mystified as to...

Thanks for all the support...now anyone know how to,trouble shoot an aquaTherm heat pump?......LOL when it rains it pours...?

ok...I tested CL level around 2 pm and raised it back to 28.....and rinsed filter, brushed pool. I was finally able to start over night test at 9:30 pm CL 25 ppm at 5:30 am. 24ppm. 0 cc!! so is that OK. is it ok if the overnight test starts lower than the 28 i was trying to keep it at...

i know better...i usually use bleach with NO additives.....but that was just not available so I hated too....but i went to a pool store.....lol

I usually keep CL to 5-6..... I was able to keep chlorine close to 28 all day will try another text overnight.. cross your fingers because we Dr. appointments all day tomorrow so I won’t be able to test all day....

2.5 gallon

I used 10% liquid chlorine ... I was able to score two 3.5 jugs from pool store
