People that did quality work in the first place, then stand behind it get future no bid jobs from me. I mean. They have to quote me, I have to agree and sign it, but I'm going to accept it no matter what it is. This was not their fault and something that happens. But for $40 you...

That's like asking Ford if they think you should drive a Chevy or a Ford. :ROFLMAO: Manufacturers follow generic industry levels that haven't been updated since the 80s or 90s. We evolved with the times. One big difference is the industry believing that there is no CYA / FC...

Hey J and Welcome!!!!! Here's a similar saga https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/no-more-grackles.267290/

Hey Pool King and Welcome !!!!! With no foaming, you're fine. You're fine if you *do* get foaming too, it's just an annoyance that ironically takes a bunch of non polymered chlorine to get rid of. We have no idea what everyone's threshold is, but with enough additive laden bleach...

Point it out on the many that you know are healthy liners. Obviously don't go out of your way on a bleached and brittle mess. I fully believe they should be fairly paid, just that already being on-site doesn't make it an expensive task. And if you're already fixing one as above, (and...

3) CCs don't matter until the . 4) OCLTs don't matter without stoopid clear water. 5) You got this. (y)

Stuff happens anywhere and with anything. The wrong filters came inside my pentair cartridge, from pentair. They had the wrong factory stamp in the rubber, but the sticker was correct, so pentair deemed it was a defective filter and replaced the whole thing. Anywho, OEMs get it wrong...

Hey Spirit and Welcome !!!! Some of our experts are all but psychic knowing that that error code is specific to XYZ. But for the rest of us, how about listing your automation and SWG model #s ? Please take a moment and fill out your signature with all relevant pool details and equipment...

That's only part of the equation. Which ICXX do you have ? (Finish filling out your signature a little more specific :)) What's your runtime ? Where are you located ? I've never heard of '7' before. :poke::ROFLMAO: All 3 can make a huge difference in output for 32k gallons. Well any...

for 2 reasons : 1) algae is microscopic and you can't see it until it's way, way, too late. 2) SLAM target FC is 12 at 30 CYA and 28 FC at 70 CYA for SWGs. It is a costly error in both funds and effort trying to maintain a higher slam target. You'd really, really. Like to know for a...

No fair you get to open a bunch of TFPs. I only get *1*. :(

Small doses are trickier with a +/-200 test variance. The 1st test may have been -200 and the 2nd test +200. Both are considered correct enough. Then factor the human element making perfect sample volume and drops. Good job letting it mix for a full day. Stupendous JOB realizing you...

I let the girls paint my nails when they were little, then wore them to work the next day. You don't say no to little girls so long as nobody gets hurt. Period. But yeah. As a big dude, nobody said boo about it. :)

Check the thread I posted above. Use an actual sock or similar, carrot on a stick like in front of a working return. Some time later, or even tomorrow it'll squish right out. Brush well after. Count it as being added for FC dosing as soon as it's hanging. Give the MA 20 minutes to...

Do your homework of course, but this comes up with a quick googling and I'm sure many more do as well. High volume nozzle with hose You could modify your existing backwash setup or plumb in a dedicated valve.
