Hi. My travertine waterline tiles have a dark stain above the waterline. I'm having it cleaned by "soda blasting" but want to seal the tile to prevent same in future. To pick the best sealer, I need to know what it is. Some have told me it may be metals, others say algae, some say dirt line...

Yes, I'm south of Houston, in Friendswood, and my small pool gets full sun all day and it had been brutal. And since our pool is new, the grandkids and I have been enjoying it. Hubby is just wondering about all the bleach. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

I live south of Houston and the sun has been HOT lately. I've also had allot of grandkids in the pool lately. I passed the overnight tests a couple weeks ago and have been careful since to maintain the FC level but I'll do another this weekend to confirm. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

We do seem to be losing about that in a day. I'm not letting the FC fall below 7 so I keep adding 80 or 90 each day to get it up to 11 or 12 knowing that it's going to drop 5 or 6 in the next 24 hours. It just seems like a lot. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Oh boy! My hubby wanted those laminar so so badly! I can see why now. They are stunning! Beautiful pool!

Absolutely gorgeous pool!

I have an 11,000 pool and spa and am trying to maintain a FC level of 7 but that is requiring about 90 oz of 8% bleach each day. Does this sound right for my small plaster pool? My current numbers are: FC 7 CC. 0 PH. 7.6 TA 90 CH 290 CYA 60 Temp 90 Thank you. Lynn

Ok. We called a neighbor to look at it and he figured it out. We had also drained some of the pool water to reduce our cya so the water level had dropped about 6 inches. So, there are these white things below the skimmer baskets called waterways? And they seemed to have dropped a cover over...

Dumb question no. 1.... How do you tell when a valve is open or closed?

:(We are new pool owners and having trouble getting the pump to work after cleaning the filter. It is not pumping water properly. We filled up the cleaner basket with water and it sucked it right out but then nothing else. Can you please tell me what we are doing wrong?

I wanted to report back on my progress. I completed a two day slam and as of this morning, passed the three steps a successful slam. And this morning, the swimming bugs had moved on! Yay! Amazing how solving one problem fixed the other! Today, pool looks clear and bright even though it is...

We finished our pool late last year and have been using Pool Math to keep it balanced. But something got away from us recently and we could use some advice I think. The thing I first noticed were bugs swimming in our water last night! Ewe! My research indicates that these are probably water...

So glad I checked with y'all first! I will add muriatic acid to lower the ph wait a month for the other stuff. Thank you very much. Talk to you in a month! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hi all. I live in Friendswood, Texas. I have been lurking for a few months while our pool has been under construction. It is now complete and has been filled for a week now. The PB did the startup this week and the pool is currently using a Fusion chlorinator which uses the trichlor tablets...
