Hi guys and gals. We finally got our pool installed, filled and up and running. I just have a couple questions. I searched, but couldn't find what I was looking for.
- Can pool floats/toys/rafts be left in the pool 24/7, or do they needed to be removed after we get out of the pool?
- I'm in the process of adding CYA, using the stocking over the return method and my CYA dissolved within hours of me putting it in, both times I have added it. From what I read here, it usually takes about 5 days or so to fully dissolve. Is this normal or is something not right? Granted, it was only 36oz at first, followed up with 24oz the second time. I used 2 different stockings and neither had any tears or holes in it.
- Since all of the CYA is dissolved and gone, can I test for it now, or should I still wait a few days?
- Our pool builder left us a nice, big pile of dirt, since our site area was on a mild slope. They didn't backfill at all, so we are left doing it. We have a Doughboy Copper Canyon 16' x 24' AGP. Are we alright to backfill this pool some? It will be alittle less than 1/2 of the pool. The pool is recessed about 1 1/2 ft into the high side, so that is the deepest part and then gets shallower as you start to move around the pool to the low side. Are we OK to backfill 1 1/2 ft?
Thanks for all the help and support.
