Send help! Of course I found this wonderful group AFTER possibly making mistakes. We just moved to a house with an in ground pool. It’s clean and beautiful looking. Seems well maintained, but I don’t know much in the way of pools. I downloaded the Clorox pool app and based on results it told...

This has now been a month long scavenger hunt to multiple pool stores and I'm still not 100% sure what the issue is. We have a 6 month old salt plaster pool (details in signature) and everything was great for a few months. We could keep the SWG down to around 18% and the chlorine levels stayed...

We have a new pool that is not yet "officially" done as the installers need to come back and add salt and program the control panel. We have been told that it is still swimmable while the plaster finishes its curing process so In the meantime we have been maintaining Chlorine manually. That has...

Greetings all, Been a long time follower here and have not needed to post as I usually can find the answers on here with a quick search. This one seems to be a little more tricky and all of the previous posts on this controversial topic point to bad testing or water loss. I have put 35-40lbs of...

Hi guys. I'm new to the forum and to pools. I just installed a 20x40 (maybe 35,000 gallons?) vinyl liner salt water pool in Long Island, NY. It's been filled for less than a month. My pump runs from 8am til 8pm with the SWG at 85%. I just got my K2006C test kit and have been reading as much...

Hello all....... as I usually do at the beginning of every season, I take my water sample to the pool store JUST TO REMIND myself of how much I’m saving, how happy I am to not have to go in there all the time, and to see if I’m getting numbers anywhere close to what the pool store computer gets...

Greetings!! Recalling a 10" snowstorm on May 10th circa 1978 I'll roll the dice and say it anyway - thank God that Winter is gone and it's nearing the time to setup the pool. It's been a long, cold Winter here in the Northeast. Couple of quick questions. Have the Min / Max parameters for Pool...

Hi all, Indulge me for a minute with some unimportant history: When my pools was built, I knew nothing, and got a bunch of Clorox chlorine tabs from Costco. After using those and finding high CYA levels, I was advised in this forum not to use those things, but to use liquid chlorine instead...

I completed my owner/build pool last summer and had little issue with the water chemistry (did not check CYA at pool start up nor during summer). Now this summer (hot summers in Arizona) I've been going thru a lot more 3" stabilized chlorine tablets than I did last summer and pool has had light...
