Wow! Very eventful times at your pools! Emptied skimmer, test, acid, brushed, glanced at PSI gauge/pump basket, bleach, then loaded the empty jugs into the truck to get refilled tomorrow or Friday. So, so easy compared to my neighbor who complained about his pool service who let it go green...

I'm excited for you! You got this! Yes, I agree, life can be unpredictable and blindsiding, but everything in between those events is prime for us to thrive. The party did a number on my pool, so my pool got a LONG manual vac done while floating and diving around the pool with goggles. More...

Since your story is not at its end, I am confident better feet days, a new pool, and companionship for the awesome person you are today are already on their way to you! Do what you need to do in order to be ready to accept these opportunities!

I love summer! My pool always looks the most blindingly sparkling in the summer midday sun and it is such a treat to easily keep it that way thanks to TFP! Tested, cup of Muriatic Acid just to go from probably 7.8 to 7.6 to ensure bather comfort throughout entire party, brush, wait 30, re-test...

This thread is really cool! Great idea, thank you!

I was very new to TFP.... and learned from the experience ..... Foolishly thought I could use up the remainders of my pre-TFP trichlor puck bucket to raise my CYA back up to 80 from 40 following a completed . I thought with Mule Team and I could keep ahead of the PH drop due to the acid...

Your current charity: Trouble Free Pool Your total orders: 25 Who are you having Amazon donate to instead of keeping all the profit? How many transactions are you at?

I just saw that movie for the first time ever this year. I wouldn't have understood how hilarious ... and maybe even awesome that is without seeing it. All the cast and extras did a great job in that scene!!!

Oh I remember those.... (shudders)

You might be able to sell the rights to that photo to the brewery! Beautiful!

It rained a lot today. Pool store's sign says it contained 300 TDS or phosphates (I don't remember which silly thing it was) and I needed to add lowering liquids before my pool turns green. Yes, when it rains they have a whiteboard they set on the checkout counter with an actual number the...

My PH tested to higher than 8.0. Before TFP, I would have added acid. Thanks to TFP, I know that I also have to test my FC because if it is over 10, the PH test is invalid. My FC was over 10 (intentionally) so I know to wait until it falls under 10 to test PH and trust the reading. Plus...

She's fearlessly prancing her fierce float into the rainbow rumble play-place! Awesome!

Congrats on your pool-sense, Swampwoman! That's pretty awesome! I'm reminded of some dialogue from the movie Interstellar: Perhaps your pool loves you too and it called out to you. Maybe you loving the inanimate object was enough. Or maybe your body felt the vibrations/sound/electrical...

Ordered my complete refill set from the good people at at tftestkits.net yesterday! Thanks for the yearly sale! During regularly scheduled 2 hour pump run, poured in my last gallon of trade bleach, loaded the jugs in the truck for refill run today. Emptied the pollen out of the skimmer from...

You two are hilarious! I've already got it in my TFP records: 2018: Casey 1 Swamp 0

If it has that lovely layer of muck and solids on the bottom, I'm a big fan of an initial siphon vacuum before your SLAM (assuming your fill water is friendly from a chem and price standpoint). We all have full confidence in you and know that swamp stands no chance. It will be nice to get...

-That's some beautiful aeration! Bravo! -I removed leaves and added water at the same time using the net/hose/leaf bagger. Circulated, tested, bleached, circulated, retested. Almost warm enough for swimming... -Quick thanks to everyone in this thread who has become a TFP supporter! I love...

Congratulations on both! - - - Updated - - - Woah! I didn't know that was a thing! Thanks for the heads up! Congratulations on anniversary!

Seriously? Is this a thing? If so, I am so going to try smoking some...

Sometimes the pot of gold is removing the rainbow! Great job on overcoming your pool woes and joining the TFP lifestyle club! Special thanks for becoming a silver supporter and helping us help others!

Glad you're better & have a wonderful SLAM! Congratulations!

Donldson is going to have to add comedy shows to his TFP America Tour as he does all our plaster redos if he isn't careful

Beautiful recovery! Congratulations!

This whole thread is precious! I love it all! Thank you TFP! I can see you all now when you arrive next time. You ring the door bell, they welcome you with hugs, they ask if they can help with your luggage, you say yes please it is in the trunk and please bring it all, and they come back...

!!! Fantastic! :gone: Yes, I swim alone frequently, but when I'm swimming for cardio I usually keep a cell phone double zip lock bagged wrapped in a towel (to protect from heat) poolside in case of emergency/phone a neighbor. An upgraded option might be a medical alert/emergency...

Oh no, needsajet! Did this impact how you cared for your pool? Are they ruining the start of your swim season? My pool is under the care of others while I hit the beach before ocean/gulf temps become as brisk as my pool. Jellyfish stings from yesterday are gone. I'm glad we don't have to...

Adjusted timing screws for longer run times due to increased wind debris, brushed, tested, dosed, checked PSI, emptied skimmer, marveled at how crystal clear it has been all year, with not one day of cloudiness, even though the hurricane and brutal summer. I love TFP.
