    Trouble Free Pool App

    Downloaded the app into my phone but it asks what I want to track and I am unfamiliar with the terms CSI, Borates, Flow Rate, Filter Pressure (well sorta on that one) and all I want to do is be able to keep up with my chemistry and know how much of whatever I need to add, but I can't get to a...

    Crystal clear to green overnight

    35,000 gunite pool. Sand filter. A week ago, the water was crystal clear and all chemistry was good except Ph and TA were way high and off the scale. I went to the TFP calculator and entered the info. The calculator instructed adding 64 GALLONS of Muriatic Acid. Fortunately, Home Depot only...
