Looks Great Lisa! Very happy for you!!!
Thank you. You have been a huge help!
Going to do another OLTC tonight. Last add was at 7 pm. Did not neccisalily need it, but wanted to add a little something.
Tested at 7:55pm and did not add. I will test by 5:30 am

I also added DE to filter this morning. 1 backwash around 2 pm and then added DE again. Flow is still good so I should not have to backwash again today.
Can you see the difference between these 2 pics? I certainly do. You still had 1CC in the first pic n kept SLAMING to get to the second. That's the difference TFPC makes.
Yes it you can see a difference. I was able to run DE in filter all last night. Flow slowing a little. I will backwash and add more DE.
On a happier note, I did pass OLCT! I am going to maintain shock levels and do it again tonight just to make sure. I will retest CC later also
Hey! Look at that!
Awesome Lisa...Glad you made it!
Me too! My daughter will be so happy. Despite the fact that the warmest the pool gets with ought the solar cover is 70 (59 in the morning) she wants to swim. I told here we should be done and she can probably swim by Sunday or Monday after I retest everything.

One my FC drops below 10 then I will run a full set of tests. I know I will need to bring my CYA up and hopefully no other adjustments. Guess I will be cleaning the SWG plate today also so I can turn that back on once FC is lower

LISA! WOW! You did it!
Now let that sweet child get in that pool! So long as the FC is just a tiny bit under SLAM level it is safe for her to swim.
One thing that you will have to keep checking is the PH and TA until you find your sweet spot. Once you get it right where YOUR pool likes it there will very little change.
Rain, sprinklers, people splashing, etc will cause the PH to go up a little just so you know.

Thanks! I will keep an eye on everything today. Still going to do another OLCT to be sure.
Today's pic. Ran 1 cup DE in filter all night. Backwashed at 9 am. Will add new DE when auto cleaner is done.

Lol some people may have thought that. Hard work and determination got me there along with all the great advice!
Can I start bringing my CYA back up or should I wait until my FC drops and I can test everything? I use the liquid conditioner from Leslies.
