We went on vaca for 9 days.
Lowered pH to 7.2, came back to 8.2. TA was 70.
Raised FC up to 16, came back to 9.5. SWG was maintaining 9.5-10 before we left. CYA is 80.
Skimmers were full of leaves from a storm or two.
There were 3 dead frogs in the skimmers looking nasty and stealing my chlorine. About 4.5 ppm I suppose.
Here is what it looked like when we got back. A hot mess!
After much encouragement from a few folks here I decided to break out the pleated filters for Gilligan.
Gilligan hard at work
After many minutes of scooping leaves and emptying the skimmers the pool looks like this now.
Time to resume
