Tool the ladder apart and cleaned each piece. Just 1 1/2" Sq plastic hollow framework. Looking at it again can't be more than 10lb sand total. Will just re-assemble, and install and watch.

Going to clean and install my ladder. Will scrub the outside but it's sand filled, maybe 20-30lbs total. It was sitting outside full of water. Should I pour some chlorine in or am I over thinking. Current FC=7.2 / CC 0 Successful slam, appears my SWG is working although the LED readout is...

PASS - CC is 0.5 or lower PASS - pass an OCLT (ie overnight FC loss test shows a loss of 1.0 ppm or less) PASS - And the water is clear just in time going on a weeks vacation Sunday.

Hey there Debbie in Alabama - TRUST THE PROCESS and listen to these folks. Started with a Very dark green pool similar to yours except my pond had Ducks instead of your Frogs. -I am on day 18 of a slam -Day 5 I started to see the bottom and progressively became clearer every day -Don't have my...

left some chlorine at walmart, used about 17gal so far - almost there ! the Pool has been used throughout the process under the very watchful eye of Senior Management

Update still slamming day 16 but almost there. Water is clear and can clearly see the bottom.

thanks - been busy last couple days - will troubleshoot using the manual and see what it says & if needed call. trying to do this as inexpensive as I can BUT already have to replace our kitchen stovetop because of the darn SWG. had it in the kitchen earlier (raining outside) to clean the...

Aqua-Trol SWG Led display is working, but only partially, the last 2 numbers are either faint/hard to read or missing a "black dash". I opened the panel and LED, pins & board look clean. Just downloaded the Diagnostic manual and it goes over steps to check for No LED display. If mine is a...

nope mine is different, and I just ordered the k1766 thanks for the info

Day 10 still Slammin - water clarity is getting there, can see the net/brush clearly on the bottom of the pool, not only at the edge but also in the middle. still learning - most important thing I learned over the weekend was to set my iphone alarm whenever I put the garden hose in to...

In the process of a slam so SWG us off now. Looking at my Goldline electronic salt tester and have questions, I do not have any demonized water or calibration standard to calibrate. Do I really need them or can I use tap water. Tested at the tap and it read.10ppt. Pool read the 1.20ppt...

OUTSTANDING ordered refill yesterday from TFTestkits and it got here today!

dogs are disappointed that the ducks have not been back, and the squirrels or carpenter bees are not coming out to play either. And the beer is there just because....oh heck cause it was a long day��

Day 5 didn't check it this morning and FC fell from 24 (10:30pm night before) to 15 at 5pm today. Just waiting

yep but the first test I used the 25ml but realized after I started adding the drops of Raegent that the 10ml would be much better. have 1/4 bottle left, testing 1-2 times a day & losing at most 5-6 FC during in 24hr period.

Thanks, Will get it in order.

Making Progress - actually saw the net going across the bottom of the pool. Do the pool stores carry a refill of the taylor R-0871 FAS-DOD or do I need to re-order online ?

ok another bone-head move. got up this morn to vacuum, then check levels. had another hidden gumball clog up the hose, cleared that and continued to vacuum but i forgot to put the pump strainer basket back in. figured it out when i lost flow and after checking the hoses started looking at the...

end of day 1 - started about 8am, went thru a few hurdles but am making progress. my CYA ended up to be 60 this morning - either when I measured earlier and it wasn't zero or i added to much CYA earlier in the week. Either way shock level will be 24 & I've managed to keep it there all day...

put the filter back together, after a quick backwash pressure is a t 12. Just finished adding 1 gal chlorine in and the UPS driver dropped off my 2006c test kit,which was suppose to get here Friday. Have an important mtg Thursday so Friday is still the slam day. Ran PH and TA on new and the...

Do I need to consider ammonia looking at the recent "dealing with ammonia" thread. Is there no way to test for ammonia prior to the SLAM? I have a salt water reef tank and can test for ammonia, would it be the same ? Thanks for the feedback so far, what's impressive is the amount of data here...

Sounds good, will close up the filter and start Thanks

I am determined to get the pool right this year, last year we were not consistent or knowledge enough so Algae 1 - Us 0. Background Our normal Pool cover ripped 2 years ago so we used a Solar cover over that winter. Last year when we removed the cover to open the pool a lot of leaves and crud...
