Middle of the editor tool bar, in between the the paperclip insert link and the camera icon there is the Insert Image. tap that.

What type of file might I ask? For a photo you’ll upload using the steps Allen mentioned. For other files you’ll see an “Insert Files” button right above the Post Reply. Click that and upload.

Hi: as you can see.. the surface looks dirty... seems like its too late in the season (phoenix) to do a acid wash... but somehow... something cleaned up a couple of streaks... so I m wondering if I adjust water chemistry to dissolve whatever is keeping the surface from looking like the clean, blue streaks..my numbers are FC 3.0.. PH 7.2... TA. 50.. CH 300.. CYA 40..Temp 80

With CYA 40 your FC target should be 5-7. See FC/CYA Levels

Run your FC a bit higher, about 8-9, and if that dirt is organic the CL may get them over time.

Ok... the 3.0 was in the am before I added FC... but I heard what you said about running the FC level at 8-9... can us tell me what CL means..? what can I do to reduce the calcium buildup... thanks..

 

[ajw22]

CL = chlorine

Reduce the calcium buildup where?

 

[garygaugler]

maybe a better question would be... what do I have to do to get the color of the bottom of the pool the same as it is in the stripe areas..

thanks..
