You might check with your Home Depot again. Mine has curbside pickup. I order online, drive there, park in designated spots, and they bring it out and load it up for me. Walmart too.

I had a week of pollen this spring, but it floated and caused a yellow ring on my tiles. I had to brush the tiles to get it back in the water to get to the skimmer. Water was always crystal clear, tested well, and was gone in a week.

@goonerbilt Thats exactly what will happen. Once you see what clarity and high standard you can have with your pool, you'll never be satisfied with less. Gorgeous pool!

I usually get muriatic acid at my local Lowes. Their pool stuff is usually in the garden section, so you can check there. Its the high powered stuff. During the lockdown, I couldnt get to Lowes, so I checked with Tractor Supply, and they had it...for curbside pickup! It was the watered down...

This is a fun thread to watch! Dont forget we are picture hogs.

Hi there! Glad you're hear. Looks like you are a prime candidate to start your very first SLAM. Heres a few links for you to get started with, until the crew shows up. https://www.troublefreepool.com/blog/2018/12/12/abcs-of-pool-water-chemistry/...

Bravo!!

You are doing great! Patience is the hardest thing sometimes. If you read back on some of the other great threads here when people had to slam their pools, they were sometimes going weeks and weeks before getting that clear pool. So you're fine, keep up the good work, we're all cheering for you.

I dont know how you got a CYA number of 32, but if its above 30, I believe you need to round up to 40, which gives a slam level of 16. Slam isnt done until your pool is crystal clear. You may have been under-doing the chlorine levels, tho Im sure smarter folks will correct me if Im wrong.

Im sure glad you posted that. I was scratching my head how the pool could be 37 F when the air was 100F.

All these teachers here will give you a big fat "F" if you dont post test results.
