    How do I use sink n sweep without skimmer?

    I added 21oz by weight of stabilizer and 5 cups of bleach on saturday. When I tested today a friend looked at the results and determined the chlorine was OK. I will test chlorine again tonight. The pool looks great. I think the pH is OK. The pool calc says pH is based on TA? Not sure what that...

    How do I use sink n sweep without skimmer?

    I got a test thing for chlorine and ph from ace. I can't see the difference in the color for either one. (Well the pH is pretty readable) For the cya I was just going to take to the pool store. I'm about ready to just sell the darn thing.

    How do I use sink n sweep without skimmer?

    I use test strips that have stabilizer. If cya is stabilizer can't that be used to test it? And the bleach... all I find is concentrated. Is that OK?

    How do I use sink n sweep without skimmer?

    it's called ultra frame. The paper work says it's 4400 gal. Somebody else questioned the volume. Paper work is known to be wrong of course. I am not planning on a permanent pool. I would like the easiest way to keep this thing useable for the summer. And it's looong summer in FL. I like your...

    How do I use sink n sweep without skimmer?

    Thanks again. Sorry for being a pain :oops: but I just want to clarify. Just focus on chlorine and pH. I don't need to worry about alk or hardness or anything else? This is my first time doing this and it's confusing to me.

    How do I use sink n sweep without skimmer?

    I have an Intex 16 x 4 ft. It holds 4400gal. The chems are good but at some point I screwed something up. It's really cloudy and it seems like undissolved stuff. It will settle a little but cannot see to the bottom of pool. I vacuumed and white water was coming out. It didn't help much. I've...
