:( We purchased this tub in August of 2015 and the shell has warped terribly. I'm headed to the dealer tomorrow with photos to discuss...but wanted to see if anybody here has experienced this issue?

I would like to dial in my water chemistry to get my CSI to be "balanced." I *think* I understand that it doesn't really "matter" since I don't have a plaster pool, but I recently read in a thread about the CSI also affecting the life of the salt cell. So here are my test results as of this...

So my water was sparkly: And this is the situation this morning: Now granted, the first pic is at the end of a SLAM in the full sun...and this morning is a little cloudy and TONS of concrete dust swirling in the air... Now to my questions: At the moment it is what it is. Gotta make a...

Pool was finished 9-1-15 and we have been trouble-free until the past couple days. Might still be ok, but I'm wondering... Most important - here are my numbers - just tested about 10 minutes ago: (I do have the proper test kit - I know sig says 2005 kit but I ordered the extra that I needed...

I just got my Amazon shipment of Borax today...and also have my MA ready - both amounts according to PoolMath. I just tested my water and here are my numbers: water temp 69 FC 7 (I think this is a little high - still trying to "dial in" the SWG CC 0 pH 7.6 TA 60 CH 130 CYA 40 (I hate this...

I took a sample of both my pool and spa water to a local pool store just to get the metals tested. We filled our pool back in August with a fill service and of course have topped off as needed with our well water. Spa has been filled totally with our well water. I just ran Ahh-some thru it over...

We just got a 434 gallon Bullfrog last week up and running...and I read the sticky note on how to use Bromide...but here's my question: Spa store said to just use the tabs...2 per week...and either didn't have the sodium bromide to sell me or just wouldn't...not sure which... So I've been...

And here I thought we were going to have a build that went off without a hitch... Today the vermiculite, concrete and liner were delivered. And they dragged it ONTO OUR BRAND NEW CONCRETE DECK! Needless to say, we were not home. The ONE DAY that I have not been here to "watch over" things, and...

We just had the footers poured today around the walls...plumbing is next. We have 4 deck jets and I'm wondering if anyone has feedback about where to place them. What do you like, wish you had done different...etc.? We have considered putting all 4 on one side of the pool or maybe 2 on each...

We are about a week out from the start of our build and I am so conflicted about either a spillover hot tub or a free-standing spa. One big part of the decision is how to heat the spillover. We do not have natural gas or a large propane tank currently. I'm wondering about electric? I understand...

Just signed the contract yesterday and so excited to see this project come to life! Would love some opinions and input about a couple options: Our builder is using Fort Wayne product line and I love the idea of a "step" or "ledge" in the deep end...thoughts? I wonder if it will just get too...

We are beginning a new pool in the next 3-4 weeks and are so excited! Hope we are making great choices...totally trust the builder. I look forward to spending more time reading all the awesome information here and LOVE all the photos! Can't wait to post some of our own!
