How Clear is TFP Clear? Let's See (Pics Only Please).

[TexEdmond]

How it started: (June 16th 2021, joined TFP the day before)


These photos taken after two partial drain / refills that brought CYA from 150 down to 60, but TA went from 80 to 200.


How it's going: (Meet Reggie the Robot, a.k.a. Sir Reginald Scrubsbottom, Esquire)




The measure of crystal clear water for me is being able to see the lights reflecting ripples back down to the pool floor.

Your assumption of my drainage percentage is incorrect, my good man. I never drained farther than 50%.



Oh wait. I see what you did there.

Ignore the cups. Grandkids were over. Too cold to retrieve.. But the spa is NICE!

again cheating, taking photos of an empty pool

About 1.5 weeks into the TFP post startup! Looks amazing! Need to get a shot of video with the GoPro, these pics don't even do it justice!

Couldn’t hold the phone still enough Plaster ripples are actually wave reflections from the top of the pool because I couldn’t hold the phone still. I have no life….

I'll never get tired of looking at pools this clear and giving the old heart eye emoji

We have house sitters for the next couple of weeks and its was so nice to bea able to say "see the screws on the drain? That's my first test."
They know how to test, but with the SWG doing it's thing, if the water is crystal clear they only have to test once or twice each week.

I was watching tv recently and there was a pool. The water was cloudy! I was surprised they would use that for tv. Does anyone else judge pool water ?

Does anyone else judge pool water

Every. Single. Time.

At least now that I know the ways.

@stinsontx, you've gotten good help so far and i didn't have anything to add on your threads so far, but i've been enjoying following your progress anyway. Your video is the reason we help folks. We know what it looks like, and now you do too. Spoiler alert, it NEVER gets old. Anytime you glance out back or hop in, its freakin KEWL.

And you got yours in what, like a month ? Well done. We will help you keep it that way too, with very little effort.

Very appreciate to all the TFP members and the valuable contributions. I have learned so much in a month! Houston summers in August are when the A game will be needed. Preparing for the battle! Thanks again.
