    FC still high 7 days after SLAM

    I put it down to 0 and then got ~9 inches of rain. We weren’t swimming that week because of all the rain and I just wasnt thinking about it. Forgot I turned it to 0.

    FC still high 7 days after SLAM

    Yeah this swg seems to be very efficient. At 10% it was keeping 10+ FC levels.

    FC still high 7 days after SLAM

    I SLAMmed the pool a week ago and got the FC up to 28. Pool was turning green but the SLAM fixed it quickly. Pool is crystal clear. The FC has not gone down, however. It’s still at 28. I also drained and refilled a few inches of water (unrelated) and it hasn’t changed. ph 7.8 Salt 3000 CYA 30...

    Massive rain over past 7-10 days

    FYI I noticed last night that my swg was on standby, probably for the past couple days. Someone must have touched it.

    Massive rain over past 7-10 days

    Should I raise my CYA? TFP says my recommended level is 70 or 80. If so do I do that after the slam?

    Massive rain over past 7-10 days

    Won’t that raise the already high PH?

    Massive rain over past 7-10 days

    I posted about a week ago how my pool filled up about 3-4 inches after a huge rain. We’ve had a good 3 more huge storms. The pool was overflowing and I had to start pumping water out. Now my levels are messed up and the water is slightly cloudy too. ph: 7.8 maybe 7.9 Cya: 30 Chlorine: 0. The...

    10+ FC consistently

    Yes but I ran out of drops I had to use so many between the 10ml and 5ml. I was at 15 drops. One problem is my pool gets no sun. I’m having trees cut down to let the sun in. Is having high FC dangerous to the pool equipment?

    Yes definitely am. Even the test strips (I know not too accurate) are showing 10+.

    10+ FC consistently

    7.8 ph 60 cya 160 TA FC is off the charts. I’ve added 30 drops using the Taylor test kit and still nothing. swg is on 0%. Is it bad to have chlorine that high consistently? Nobody has complained at all while swimming.

    High TA, Low Stabilizer - everything else OK

    If I put the sock in the skimmer basket is there any risk of it getting sucked in? Stupid question.

    High TA, Low Stabilizer - everything else OK

    Right after I posted this I read the pool school article saying not to chase TA unless there's a specific problem. :) Edit: It's not necessarily a fresh fill. Pool was put in last September, used for about a week and then closed. Opened up about 3 weeks ago but have barely used it. So...

    High TA, Low Stabilizer - everything else OK

    (specs in signature) 11,000 Gallon SW pool, barely used so far this summer because I've been getting work done in the yard for the past 2-3 weeks. Solar cover has been on it the whole time. Still not that hot here in NY so not much swimming. I am brand spankin' new at pools so everything...
