Its been a hot and rainy summer so far here in Cleveland and in 10 years of ownership have never experienced this issue before. No matter how long I run the pump and keep the chlorine up the green tint seems to come back if I'm not constantly shocking. Have never had a problem like this. Pump...

I am getting ready to flock my in-ground pool to vacuum to waste all the dead algea after an algea bloom. Alkalinity is 95 and PH is 7.2. Bottle of flock recommends PH to be 7.8 or above for it to work as advertised and I don't know why. Should I try to raise the PH up? How do I raise it up...

Hi Everyone, I live in the Cleveland, Ohio area and have an inground pool. I correctly close the pool every fall and add all of the correct chemicals to get me through the winter. The pool is covered and lines are blown out and capped so I cannot run the pump till I open. Every year I open...

Hi and thanks for looking I have an inground pool with a vinyl liner and suspect I have a leak in the conduit behind my light fixture. Water has been leaking out of my pool and seems to stop about 2" from the top of the light fixture. Eliminated all other possible leaks in the liner, skimmer...

Thanks for reading this. I opened my pool last week to an algea bloom which is about 95% cleared at this time with continual shocking. CYA is 0 and I am blowing through 3 gals of bleach a day not to mention pucks as well to try to bring up CYA. Not working. 10-12 at night when I add bleach...

FC = 1.5 CC = Could not get water to turn pink after 5 drops of R-0003 so don't know. What does this mean? CYA = Less than 30 could be 0 PH = 7.4 Calcium Hardness is 200 I usually use pucks to bring up the CYA until it's around 30 then it's strictly liquid chlorine. Weather is cold in...

I have tried multiple times to load all of my pool info in the signature page. It's less than 5 lines. Can anyone help me with this. Every time I post someone answers telling me to fill out my profile and signature to better help me. No matter what I do it won't load. Thanks This is what I...

I've been running my pool pump pretty much non stop since I've opened. I'm going to try running it a lot less time (like maybe 4-6 hours a day) and see what happens. Water will turn over in 4 hours. Water is crystal clear and water is balanced. Is it best to run the pump at night or during...

Hi Everyone, New to this so here goes. Have a slight algea problem upon startup. The pool was clear until I cleaned the bottom and blushed now it's murky bluish white. My pool is in ground 18 x 36. 22000 gals, vinyl liner. I live in the country and a lot of green around the pool. I have a...
