Can't believe it's been 2 months since I tested the water! I swim 2-3 times per week, and summer has just flown by. I was really surprised things weren't bad at all. FC is high for the lower CYA level, I guess heat burns stabilizer off (I haven't replaced much water other than evaporation). Just need to turn my SWG down 1 notch and add 5# of stabilizer, although I may put that off until next year. I haven't added anything for 2 months (other than what the SWG adds, and about 4 oz per day of MA via Stenner pump), so nothing manually. I also haven't spent a dime on chlorine!

Agree SWG is the best. We were out of the country for 3 weeks. No one took care of the pool and came back to a clear water, no algae. Only thing is PH went to 8.2 and TA to 80….I had white flakes in….well I’m still trying to figure out that (have a separate topic on it)
Also solar Beta pool skimmer did an awesome job:)

Yeah, need to keep pH below 7.8 to avoid flakes. 80 TA isn't bad.
