    Wanting to convert from Baquacil to Chlorine

    Here here...you are right...once you get your cya levels up your bleach consumption will drop...not only us it cheaper the bbb way but way less chemicals in your pool. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk

    Wanting to convert from Baquacil to Chlorine

    Wee did too...always checking chems after rain...i wouldn't worry about TA as long as PH is good...it should adjust as long as your PH is proper level...as far as CYA goes...if you had significant amounts of drain off you'll need to check it, you may need to add more...just remember it takes a...

    Omg...that looks terrific...Linda like you are wrapping things up...i think you are ready to change the sand...if you have maintained fc for two nights in a row without losing more than two...you're done :) Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk

    I don't think you need much time but I used mine when the sun was most intense to help chlorine stay...mine is a dark blue bubble type...and it did make some difference with chlorine loss...of course, as leebo said, you do need the sun too but you're nearing the end of the conversion now Sent...

    Wanting to convert from Baquacil to Chlorine

    I chose to dose throughout the day....I believe that is why my conversion was so easy....I didn't add any cya until after the conversion was over and new media in filter...I find that my solar cover helps also...and just a reminder to throw any pool toys and such that may have baqua goo on them...

    I was amazed by my conversion. I could not believe how easy it was and felt silly for being so intimidated by it. I was lucky to find this forum. I was reviewing the procedure for a couple if years before I decided to take the plunge...pardon the pun...lol. Nothing wrong with asking...

    It helps to try o remove as much as possible...the faster it's gone the faster your conversion...not sure about aeration but circulation is most important. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I actually added too much chlorine and when I tested it appeared as though there wasn't any so I added more...ugh...didn't realized that if chlorine was too high you have to add another scoop of powder...learned the hard way...lol Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
