Salt added 4 days ago, total chlorine at 5 ever since

Do you guys perform that chlorine test every day?
Yes. Until you become one with your pool you will need to study it everyday. After a while you’ll just know what it needs as one day is the same as the next day. May and August will *always* be two TOTALLY different days, But July 9th will be like July 10th for the most part. Test again on the 11th to make sure.

I meant the pool. :poke:
Way you don’t wanna see pics of my cylinders?!? Hah. Yes I have some pics! Finally. The first one is with the landscaping fixed which I think makes a big difference. Definitely learned a lot and wish i had found this website during the planning process.

Is your guy wearing floaties in that pic?:drown:

Seriously, pool looks very nice. Don't worry about the low FC recommendations that you keep bringing up in terms of warranties. Those companies are basing that number assuming you have little to no CYA in the pool. A pool with 0 cya and FC 1 is much harsher than a pool with 30 cya and FC at even 8-10ppm. The CYA buffers the harshness of the chlorine and keeps some in reserve. It is the #1 reason why people's pools turn green. They let their CYA get out of control with constant use of tablets and granular chlorine which all contain CYA and that renders their FC ineffective. With your SWG, you won't have to worry about that. Just check your CYA a couple of times a season and add some if needed.
