Teeseee 150...could you describe the burn stains a little more. is it possible you have metal stains?? Fiberglass will show metal stains very easily especially if the ph is kept high. A picture would help if not try to explain the burn marks in detail. Also what is the hot tub made of??

Craig...Sounds like you are doing fine. I dump it down the drain if I check inside and run enough water to push it through the sink trap. If outside I just dump it over the fence in the grass and wash out the tester in the pool water. :)

twpiv...Congratulations on the conversion from Baqua. It is amazing your first post and you are finished with the conversion. I am very happy the info is there to help all. Great Job and welcome :-D

Kind of makes your CYA a none issue. Thanks Countrygirl now I have to clean the coffee off my computer. :lol:

teppy... I shock in the spring and about a week before I close the pool. As long as your CC is at .5 or below there is no need to shock as a maintenance procedure. :-D

shadylady...I have the Taylor k2006 and it is the most important part of the pool. I have used this kit for a long time but this is before Dave started selling the test kits on this forum. It is almost the same kit but the regents are larger and the service is next to none. Dave is on the forum...

Hi campool...I also have high iron in my well water. I never noticed it win I had a liner pool but now I have a glass pool. It will show up quickly. All I can tell you is what I do to keep it at bay. I do use a filter on the end of my hose to top off the pool but I really don't think that does...

Mark...That is a great looking pool now. You not only did a great job on the pool but the pictures of the proses of the conversion are amazing. Thanks for sharing a great post to others that might be in the same boat. :-D :-D :-D

MisterMister... You are doing the right thing by testing daily you will learn your pool much faster and see exactly what your pool is doing. I test every day (ph&cl) It is the best way to see what is going on and to be able to correct it quickly. :)

I have a fiberglass pool and I have never had concern about testing the CH. I am doing my pool opening adjustments and the CH is about 75. The question is do you think I should increase the CH to about 150 or is it still thought the vinyl and fiberglass don't need it? Thanks Ric W.
