she forgot to turn off water :( So for 4 days the Pool was filling and running over. Uggg.. anyways in the 108 degree temp everything dried up pretty good now and water level was good after 2 days. But, I was worried about chem issues and did a CYA test, it was @ zero which normally it’s at...

Last night at 12am I heard a different sound and noticed my pressure gage at 15 and it's normally at 28. Shut it down, and today I took my off lid and checked gasket, it seems stretched, so it took a few minutes to install after cleaning and new lube. Skimmers are working great and main drain...

My tiles are separated, just like 11 of them the ones facing full sun light all day. 14 year old pool. Can it wait until cooler weather I'll enclose pics I'm a little nervous about more possible damage behind if I don't repair right away Thanks for your insight sentado na praia...

It's from Costco so no issue with return. I'm very familiar with TFP method and follow it religiously. I thought maybe another set of eyes on this product might help. Would it help if I was on vacation for 5 days or even if I wasn't ? Sounds like it might help with chlorine usage as I use a...

Hope it's the right forum. Since Nevada Pool Supply has been bought out by Leslie's, where can I pick up my chlorine and Acid. Today I went to buy these and was charged: Chlorine 8.29 for 2 gallons. 1 box= (2)- 1 gallon containers Acid 12.99 for 2 gallons . " " " " "...

My hot tube drained down to pool level over the last 10 days while the pump was off. Pump on during the night, was good, off, back drained into pool. Now my hot tub plaster had bubbled during the 110 degree heat during the day with no water in it. Mostly the steps have issue. Do I need to...

My CYA use to be about 70, I tested it today and it shows < 30. Is it possible it has dissipated, no rain to think of as I live in the desert. It's been about 2 years since I filled my pool and used stabilizer from big box store to bring it up to 70. I do top it off a lot during the last 2...

When did I join TFP ?!?! Almost 2 years ago ! Followed all advice and did I read everything 3 times. Yup. I sure did. Very proud of myself. Only issues I have are my CH is crazy high, I do live in the Las Vegas Valley though. Only thing I need to read more of is this CSI thing. Very...

I just wanted to make sure that I should add baking soda ? I thought during my initial reading of all things in this section that it would raise my TA up. It's at<45 right now and I'm having at add 1/2 gallon of MA weekly. I would like to get TA up to 90 so I don't have to add so much MA Latest...

Installed a new one and wrapped the threads with Teflon tape but still leaks. Is there anything else I can use to stop the drip drip drip. Thanks Mark EDIT: Filter drain plug !!

5 days ago my T-100 test kit had my FC at about 11 and today it was at close to 2. CYA is at 60 now which should be good for the rest of the year. I brought it up to 11 because we were going to have a pool party and I thought the bathing load would need a little extra. My CC is at 0, so no...

I completely emptied my water about 7-8 weeks ago. I bought some stabilizer from Walmart, and followed the directions, used a sock in my skimmer. I put in about 90% of the 4lb container. As you can see it should have brought up the CYA to under 50ppm. City tap water was used, I don't think...

Not a lot, but got me wondering how this would effect my chemical balance. Number prior to rain: FC 4 CC 0 Cya 70 CH 350 PH 7.4/6 from basic daily test kit TA is around 120 So how does rain effect my pool water because before I know it we will have the summer deluge of rain and want to...

My skimmer basket broke into pieces so I don't know what was sucked into pump basket. I vacuumed out the skimmer suction pipe as best as I could. Now I want to check my pump basket and can't get the lid off. It's there a special tool to turn the lid ? It's on to tight. Pump is off but still...

I've attached a picture, can someone decipher what all this means please. I'm thinking to go to a 2 speed pump and am totally lost. I know that it is a square flange fit to the pump. I run it 4 hours in the winter and 6 hours in the summer. Also attached is my filter info. I'm just preparing...

It's gone. Does this happen naturally now that my water chemistry is perfect for my pool. I recently changed my pool water and presto, there's nothing on the tiles. I had to scrub once a month during the summer cause of the nasty water here in the desert and had a pool service company service...

Pool Water temp was about 75 degrees: FC 3.65 CC 0.25 TA turned yellow, but on the Basic test it was over 8.2 CH 800-900 CYA 150 Let me know what I did wrong or what I forgot, and if the test seems off. Actually, I'm sure the waters not right. Pool water is very clear, doesn't taste salty...

I want to do my my own chemical testing and am going to use the site suggestion on BBB. What's the first thing I need to do after I buy the 3 B's. I just received my TF-100 test kit 2 days ago in the mail. After I call and cancel the service, I'm going to start the year off right and do it...

I took the back panel off to check for model number and spider webs and dirt etc.. I see no information panel for model number or BTU's and such. Can someone help me find this info. I want to be informed if it needs service and question that I might have to ask on here as well. I bought the...
