Thanks for all of the help. I have since changed my schedules a little bit based on the advice on here. I now have the filter pump (1500) running from 3AM-10AM and the cleaner (2200) from 10AM-noon. Still, during the filter pump schedule the chlorinator turns on and will only read the first...

I was thinking of putting a puck in each pot to keep the water from going green from not using them for a while and then the green water mixing with the main body as soon as they're turned on. Shouldn't be a problem now as we're in the pool everyday and turn them on while out there. I think I'll...

Thanks Richard. What should be my target FC level? I'll test the CYA again to make certain. To keep this from happening again, could the culprit be my wok pots? I turned them in after 10 days of having them off and they were real ugly looking. By the time I saw the water coming out it was too...

Good morning. This morning the water seems to be really good, FC 28.5 and CC 0. So, is there a procedure in how to safely bring the FC back down?

Whoa! Maybe I over did it. The sun is down now. I tested the water and got a FC reading of 29 and a CC of .5. Pump is running and completely turned the generator off; no other form of chlorine in the pool. Hopefully it passes the test tonight!!

Thanks. I'll try it tonight. I'll be up with twin 8 month olds and a two year old. Thanks for the help!

Okay, just tested again and the FC is way up, 24.5 and the CC is actually 2. I just got the K-2006 today and think I may have made a mistake the first time. Ill measure again tonight after the sun goes down and I'm done adding any chemicals. Should I wait to do the overnight test until the CC...

Thanks a lot for the help! So, I have brushed, brushed and brushed, added 6 gallons of chlorine (had it at the house) and will test the water in another hour or so. If the FC isn't up, I'll have to get the bleach. I actually brushed the algae off the pool yesterday and none was visibly...

Please do not hijack an existing thread...I have started you this new one Here are my numbers: FC 11 CC 0 PH 7.4 TA 120 CH300 CYA 80 temp 85 Pool looks awesome! Except a few patches of algae that I spotted a few days ago. Looking at the pool school I need to lower the PH a little bit than...

I’m very new to pool ownership so, I apologize if this is an amateur problem. Our pool was completed in November and I have had low or no chlorine levels ever since; thus constantly adding chlorine to it. I have an IC40 with Intelliflo 3050 pump and Easy Touch4. The low speed of the pump...
