    Just open to a significantly low water level

    I grew impatient so I just filled the pool back up. I did mark the current water level when I filled the pool back up and 4 days later it hasn't gone down . I guess it's a super slow leak. We are due for a liner change maybe the end of the season or beginning of next season so I'm not going to...

    Just open to a significantly low water level

    I didn't add water yet. I feel like this water level has been this low for about a month based on my camera that overlooks the pool and I could see how low the cover had dropped. I was thinking if it was still leaking around the light fixture this may have been the area where it stopped but some...

    Just open to a significantly low water level

    Okay I understand what you're saying. No there's no place for the water to go. I've also been using food dye around the light fixture and stairs with the water level as calm as possible and I can't find anything.

    Just open to a significantly low water level

    Do you mean that the water in the pool got pulled on top of the cover? I wouldn't think so because the cover was filled with leaves from the entire winter. It was brown and smelly water on top of the cover. I've used the same cover for 3 years and I always open clear like. I would think if there...

    Just open to a significantly low water level

    I've been opening and closing myself for a couple years. I noticed over the winter the water level was slowly dropping and when I open today this is what I see. That dark blue patch has been there for probably 3 years when the diving board broke and it has held up well until we decide to do a...

    yellow staining on liner

    it's it's been several days since I spot treated those two areas with vitamin C in a sock and the spots are still extremely clean. I've read through the ascorbic acid threads and have ordered the supplies I need but I'm curious if I could just spot treat the sections of the pool that have...

    yellow staining on liner

    waiting for test kit and ordered a small bottle of vitamin c tabs to test the sock method. Regardless, the pics above should give a good reference to what is in the water. In the pics with the steps, the second step was just like the third but I used a wire wheel when I opened the pool and...

    yellow staining on liner

    As new pool owner since last summer I have yet to learn the TFP method in regards to chemical treatment but my reading has begun. With that said, I am still at the mercy of the local pool store for water tests even though I have test strips and a cheapo amazon test kit. Brief...

    white substance floating on surface

    I tried to skim the surface earlier and it seemed like a lot of the white stuff was able to be caught in the skimmer but not all of it. It had a mushy/soft feeling. I left some of it on the skimmer and let it dry. Im thinking its pollen based on the dry pictures? Im going to buy skimmer socks...
