    PH Spike - Auto Cover to Blame?

    Thanks guys. The ORP readings on my Sense and Dispense seem unreliable... or at a minimum, don't correlate to my FC readings. I think I'm going to switch back to a schedule/percentage for my SWG.

    PH Spike - Auto Cover to Blame?

    Happy Independence Day!!! The water chemistry on our in-ground 14,500 gallon pool has been very stable this year. Twice this year, however, the PH has spiked from a normal reading (7.5-7.8) to around 8.1-8.2. This is our second season of pool ownership, so I'm still learning. I can only...

If I plug in, as an example, 0ppm current... and 3ppm as the target, Pool Math will calculate a recommendation for me. A couple more questions. Dichlor is the ‘chlorinating granuals’ the pool guy...

    New Pool - Almost Done with Construction - Mechanicals Just Turned On

    Thank you for the information. If I don’t have the test kit by Wednesday... how do I calculate 3ppm of FC without any test values? I guess I could get the water tested at the pool store. Oh, maybe I was unclear in my original post. Our pool has a SWG. The hot tub has a tablet chlorinator. My...

    New Pool - Almost Done with Construction - Mechanicals Just Turned On

    Hi everyone. This is my first post. We're 14 weeks into our construction project that includes a fiberglass pool and spa. Our landscapers will be done with the hardscaping in about a week. Our pool company got our mechanicals up and running yesterday. Prior to starting up the pumps, they...
