Clear water 8ft deep..

I thought it was only 3 or 4 days but not consecutively that I let the chlorine drop to let swimmers in. I don’t think I let it ever drop below 7. But not certain. It was 8 months of algae growth and maybe even Yellow algae because it looked yellow... I guess it was just the breaking...

This is pool water only. I have put another 3 lbs in . I guess with all the backwashing And the monsoon rains we’ve had gave me fresh water. I lose 5ppm during daylight

We have a break through! “Blue”. I can see pattern in liner. dirt /dead algea sand whatever it is in 4ft deep. My auto vac hasn’t been working right so I’ve got a Manuel one. Today I’m going to try to carefully vac this out to waste trying not to cloud up the water. Every time I brushed...

I tested at 9p last night at 14ppm. I then put in a gallon of 10% and went to bed . 1 gal gives me 5ppm. I woke up to 20ppm. I’m not losing . But yet here I am. I’m really over pool ownership ? The photographs shows my steps where I poured a spot of chlorine there.. and the blue...

HI Justin, It was looking like a pretty teal color but never cleared beyond that point. I haven't consistently maintained SLAM level but for the most part I have. 48 gallons over 2 weeks should have given me some improvement.

I had tested earlier yesterday at 7ppm. Several swimmers all day. I just put in 3 gallons at bedtime without testing which usually gives me 15 ppm . This early morning FC was 16. And 1 hr ago it was 10. I put in 2 gallons just now. I’m guess I should be at 20 I will test soon to...

Ph 7.4 FC 10. CC 1 CYA 20? ( see photo) CH 250 TA 170 I’ve put 48 gallons of 10% chlorine, 4lbs of stabilizer , my cya still is only reading 20?? I lose about 5 ppm during the day but only 1 or 2 ppm overnight. I’ve let the chlorine drop to around 7 for the kids to swim in.. they don’t...

Only about 2 . And yes on brushing. I started Sat at 3p. I’m seeing a pretty teal blue this morning!

Sock is hanging off the side in pool by a return. I’ve given it lots of squeezes throughout the day.. I just tested it and the dot is not as clear anymore but still visible with water level at top of tube. I did not let the water warm up before testing ..hmm?.. well at the very minium there...

Slight improvement on day 2. My CYA isn’t yet registering ..Most of the 4lbs has dissolved out of the sock. I’m estimating I started at 20.. I added 20. I’ve been SLAmimg at 16 . I put my pump on circulation for the first 24hrs to begin with then I sat it on filter this afternoon. It is...

Thank you. I did add the CYA -or adding.. sock is a soakin’ and added 4 gallons of chlorine , 2 hrs later I added another gallon. Oops. Should have tested before I added that last one. I’m really surprised with that considering all the algae and sunlight that I have 18ppm FC . I’m...

Hello everyone! It’s my 8th summer and opening! Pool ownership hasn’t been the greatest pleasure for me but I keep trudging it along. 2 years ago we replaced the liner and pump. Last year that Century brand pump failed near the end of summer with only having 2 summers use. We closed up...
