chlorination

I don’t use Chlorine tablets anymore because it makes keeping track of my ideal FC too difficult, due to CYA always increasing. I use liquid chlorine, but it’s a lot of maintenance as I’m trying to avoid dumping in every 1-2 days. Are there any tablets that don’t increase CYA and just increase...

New Pool owner, landed up buying the house and now figuring out an economical way maintain - It is a Chlorine pool (Will consider to convert into into salt water, hopefully not this season. Requesting help from expert to get better prices. Willing to do more work Here are the prices. Ace...

Hello everyone. I replaced my Jandy aqua pure 1400 with the platinum edition replacement salt cell for Jandy Aquapure 3 port 1400. My free chlorine levels have been staying between 8-10. I have turned the production level down to zero and added water to the pool to try to drop the level. My ph...

Long time lurker first time poster... 2 year old IG plaster pool and thanks to this site I've had good success with liquid chlorine. I'm finally tired of adding the LC and was debating adding a Stenner pump but believe I have decided to go the SWG route. My pool was built with a Hayward...

IDK what’s going on… My SWG is acting up. At some point at 4200 it says too much salt, at 5000 it’s generating, at 5300 it’s generating, now it says too hi at 5300. SWG reading of 5300, I done my own test, reads under 3300. At 5300 it says generating, not super chlorinating, I have set at...

My wife and I are pretty new to pool care, we had our pool built last year but this is our first summer enjoying it and we've had a prety dramatic learning curve, especially with the heat we've experienced in North Texas. We're currently using 7.55% Sodium Hypochlorite Clorox Bleach from Costco...

Hi everyone, I installed a 21’ round above ground pool in June and filled it with about 12 inches of water and threw in a tricolor dispenser. It then took a week before adding gravel, finishing the electrical and filling the pool. Now I have the pool chemistry generally balanced. PH - 7.5 CYA...

First off - I researched for the answer but could not find what I needed. Sorry if I missed it. Point of Confusion: If I follow the FC/CYA chart and I keep 30-50ppm CYA levels, my FC needs to be >5ppm, however the T1000 test kit instructions, and various forum posts and guides, state that the...

Hello TFP Community! First post here. My pool is under construction. Specs should be in signature. During the build I’ve been reading up on maintaining pools. Came upon the TFP method. Buy into the TFP logic, read the pool school book, and TF-100 kit will be ordered soon! Reason for my post is...

Hello all. I'm feeling a little sheepish tonight as I've spent the last 4 or 5 days trying to clean up my swamp, and overlooked my CYA to chlorine SLAM value, so have (I think) been chronically UNDER chlorinating during my SLAM. But, I'm also running into some results I don't quite understand...
