Thank you. I did not read that article as I may have missed it reading the many links and trying to get a grasp on everything. I had replaced the water and my levels stayed exactly the same. I will try a repeat process.

What is an OCLT? And how do you slam a pool?

:hammer: (thats me banging my own head!) Yes, I am testing daily and it starts off fine after I add the bleach and then slowly creeps back down to 0. I run my system from 9 am to 5 pm daily. When will my SWG begin to make enough chlorine on its own so I don't keep adding bleach? And how much do...

It is a salt pool so I didn't think I needed to add bleach since the salt generator should be making it, right!?

Hello again. I need some more help please. I have done all of the things you have suggested (emptied the pool -about 2 feet) and added liquid chlorine. I thought draining the pool would help but here are my numbers: FC: 0 TA:102 CH:600 CYA:160 Salt:3100 Phosphate: 1000 ( which I know doesn't...

Unfortunately, I had already added the phosphate remover before finding your website. I truly appreciate your help. I will be adding bleach as soon as possible. Is there a way to lower your CYA without draining half the pool? We live on a salt water canal and the EPA is funny about that.

Hi, I am not sure what to do. I am a new pool owner and just recently switched it to a salt water pool (4 months ago). My pool reading is showing no chlorine. Here are my test results according to a local pool store. TC: 0 FC:0 pH:7.7 Acid Demand:7 Calcium: 500 Stabilizer: 120 Salt: 3400...
