I've been watching the PH for the past two weeks and if I do nothing it went up to 8.0 so I added acid to bring it back down to 7.2 and let the PH rise on its own. That was on the 20th. last night the PH was back up to 7.8 so it takes about 10 days to go from 7.2 to 7.8. At first I thought it...

It has been at 7.8 for the past two days. I'll let it go for a while longer to see if it continues upward. The reason I was concerned about the TA was it started at 100 and has dropped to 80 when I tried to get the PH to stay at 7.4 I was concerned that it would continue to drop below 80. The...

I have been having some slight issues with the PH. I started with the BBB method this year and I use the Taylor test kit. Here is where I'm at from last night. PH 7.8 FC 4.0 CC 0.0 TA 80 CH 210 CYA 40 The PH seems to keep rising slowly (not bouncing) so when I add Muriatic acid the PH drops...

I have an above ground pool and will be building a deck on one side in the next few weeks. I was wondering which way would be better for the height of the deck. should the deck be slightly below the side caps, the same height or slightly higher then the caps? If higher would you run the boards...

Hang in there, I too had a difficut time with Algae this year and almost tore down the pool from frustration. I found this site and things have been better then ever (pool related that is). Once you get the TA and PH where you want them you don't have to continue aerating, unless your PH slowly...

Don't give up on the pool yet. I was at a similar frustration level with my pool this year. Algae attacked my pool when I "knew" that the chlorine level was perfect. The problem was not what I knew but what I didn't know. My water was no where near being good, much less perfect. This site saved...

I had some stains on my pool that I thought wouldn't go away. but with constant contact with the chlorine in the water they slowly disappeared. Very nice pool design. I can see with the small yard why you would go to the extra effort to strengthen the foundation to get it closer to the house...
