Hello As per the images , the pvc pipe came out yesterday while pump was running. Can this be fixed with pvc glue or do i have to replace it? Would appreciate some suggestions. Thanks

My pool is opened on saturday May 27th. water is very clean . all calculation was great. and then after 3 days pump stopped working. i have ordered a new Motor to replace. until then How do I maintain required chlorine in the pool? i have Aquabot , can I add chlorine and keep running...

Yes there is a timer.

What type of Automation? Pump is Hayward superpump 1hp. The label on the pump cannot be read so i do not know the exact model #. So i am not able to decide to buy only motor . My pool guy is not very prompt in replying calls. My pool is open and cannot add chlorine without water gets...

thanks for your reply. I am not sure how old it is as we bought the house 5 years ago and not sure when earlier owner bought it. I was thinking about just motor replacement. but still the specification will be same right?Also how do I decide multi speed or single speed? thanks Archana

Good Morning , My pool opened on Saturday May 27th. the Pool guy started Pump and told me that it does not sound very good. he said he will fix it but does not guarantee it would work. I kept it running for 48 hours after first shock and after that it stopped working. I assume i have to get...

Thanks. I use TFtestkit. I have Basic 1000 for PH testing .

pool size - 28500 CYA 25 Chlorine 4 TA-90 PH 7.8 My PH is fluctuating between 7.5 to 7.8 . it did reach to 8 but i added dry acid and now its fine. but TA is low. its 90. not sure if I should add baking soda to bring it up. as that is again going to bring PH up. please suggest. Also...

Hello Everyone, This is my 3rd year opening pool. Compare to the last two years the pool looks in a great shape this year. I still have little cloudy water though. But we can still see the bottom at the deepest end of the pool, which did not happened last year until 7 days of slamming. I...

I think i got your point. I use Laundry bleach for chlorine but at the same time i use tablets once in a week . I read on this site that tablets could increase CYA Level. my CYA is 40-50. I use testing kit recommended by this site. I never go to pool shop to test the water. what is the...

Hi I see some green stuff at the bottum of the pool and some on the side wall. it goes away when we brush and comes back on the next day. pool numbers are FC 8, CC 1 PH 7.2. I had similar problem last year at the same time . that time I used some aleagy controll from leslie pool. and...

Great! pH is now 7.5. I will increase cya. When we add stabilizer , do we have to wait for certain period of time to swim? Thank you so much for all the help and support.

Hi, Thanks much ! Our pool passed all the test. The water is cleat , overnight FC loss .5-1 , CC .5. Pool as at FC 6.5 PH is still 6.8. I added borax as per pool math recommendation. How long should i wait to test PH after adding Borax? Can I leave CYA to 30 or should increase ?

Hi , well my pool looks good. Sparkling water, and .5 to 1 cc as of now. Overnight fc loss is not yet noted. I might do it tonight. I brought up CYA to 30 and tested PH 6.8 and TA 80. The FC is still at slamming level. My pool is 28000 gal. My question is : 1. To bring up PH and TA...

I will surely take care of all these all over summer and while closing the pool. So I understand replacing water is not required. Is that right.

I have not tested yet for ammonia but water has started getting clear . I still have CC 2 to 2.5. Not sure after clearing the entire water after spending so much money on chlorine bleach , would this Ammonia would develop again? Does it makes sense to replace the water? How much apprx would...

Oh ok thanks for the help. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Even if the water is positive to amonia , i understand from the research that i have to continue with slaming process. Is that right? I will perform overnight FC loss test tonight.

By the way how would i test the water for ammonia?

You are right about the test kit. Since it does not show below 20 i was not sure if i have 0 CYA or 10. But i decided to increase it to 20 . I added little more today to bring it to 30. - - - Updated - - - I was told when I have high CC it shows some organic growth in the pool. As i...

Last year my pool was opened with lot of debris, green water. Slaming worked best . CYAwas high to 60. Today I started to see bottom of the pool to the deep end of the pool slightly. I can see the bottom at 3 ft since day 1

I know i had to take it to pool store.

I have sand filter. 28000 gal pool.using TFT kit. CYA was lower than 10. I brought it to 20 now.

Last year i had same issue. I have sand filter. Thought of changing the sand. But friend of mine introduced me to this site and suggested me to slam the pool. It took 7 days . My CYA was high at 60. But at the end of 7th day i had crystal clear water without using any clarifier. According...

Its 4th day of slamming the pool. My CYA is as low as 10 . I am trying to maintain FC 10. But during the day in sun light within in an hour FC is dropping to 5. I am actually adding little more than as per the goal. I would say it is better than yesterday , when it was dropping to 1 . I...
