Oh in the winter, it's closed and emptied. The temperature drop below -30c so can't have a pool running!

only reason I slammed a second time was because I forgot I had remove all CH generation (removed tab and stopped CWG) which dropped me at 0 CH for some days. Didn't wanted to take any chance, I slammed back

I slammed twice when I opened my pool. Right now, I'm at 90 CYA, trying to bring down to 75.

yeah, once I get my CYA level proper, I'm off to doing that. But since I always have lot's of tree stuff in my pool, it will never be that stable. I got a lots of big trees and cedar hedge. Everyday is a full pool cleanup because of that. I can't wait to have my robot. As for my vial, I flush...

ah yeah ok, I though it had another name. The test you do 30 minutes after sunset and chemical add and before sunrise

Yesterday my CYA was at 100, I did a little flush and testing later today to see where I'm at now. What is OCLT?

So I unscrewed the adapter, removed all of the teflon tape and the little silicon they put. I've put new silicon tape, screwed it so about 3 turn of thread show, still leak. I screwed it more, still leak.... I'm starting to think they knew about this and the original stuff was maybe glue. It's...

Normally, it's at 30% or below. The pool normally doesn't run 24/7 except at opening season. Once it's stabilise, I run it during the day from 9am to 9pm. It's also open from april to october (at best). Right now, the water is at 59F. I remember having someone told me under 60-70F, it's not...

yeah right now, just come back from the pump trying to fix a small leak. Have a red and yellow light flashing saying check salt level and check cells (probably because of salt level). It now says it's 2600 which is below it'S 2700 threshold. I'll add some salt after the repair to see if it get...

I might have found a website that can ship it to me, still waiting for validation cause every other website I found have this message: DISCLAIMER: Due to some recent changes from Canada customs we cannot ship any Taylor test kits or reagents to a Canadian address. We apologize for the...

Cell is about 3 or 4 years ( i forgot when I bought it exactly). The pool been open for a month 24/7, I think the salt properly circulated XD

a good 4 hours :( Ok, so since cell says 2700 and store meters 3200, should be ok. Pool maker says to only check the aquarite reader (well, maybe they want to sell new cells faster). I never cleaned the cells, wonder if that's require? I did flush it with fresh water at the beginning of the...

Hello, in fact, the taylor kit aren't sold in Canada, that's the problem.

Yeah it's water coming up from the con section between the pump and the pipe. It was sold and installed like that by the pool installer. I don't know what the translucide stuff is.

30$? Maybe for you. For me in Canada, the cheapest I found on amazon is 80$ plus shipping and import fee which yield around 130$. And the reagents bottle only? 80$/ea....

Hello everyone, I found out I have a small leak on the tube going upward from my pomp to my filter. I try putting it tighter but it didn't help. Looking at the installation, it seems there's some kind of silicone that was applied at the installation. How do I fix this? Thank you!

Hello everyone, I have 3 different reading of my salt in my pool and I'm unsure which I should trust. My taylor kit didn't came with the salt reading unfortunatly. The first method is the worst, a salt testing strip (that is expired to add to the false reading). This one give me 2450ppm. My...

Great, thanks!

2006c . I follow the instruction on the taylor website (there was a video). It seems my kit just doesn't use this reagent (it's a OR in the table they provide).

Hello everyone, As the title says, I just received my pool water testing kit. I was looking at the chart and the first thing I see is for Free, Combined and Total Chlorine (DPD) test, it says to use Reageant R-0001 and R-0002. But it's not in the box O_O What am I missing? Looking at the...

Yeah I guess there's multiple type of fiberglass pool. Mine is all fiberglass, there's no tile anywhere. In fact, all fiberglass sold here are like that.

Oh I'm not arguing, I'm trying to understand. I just read the pool school, ABC Chemistry and everything since we get pointed to read that. So I'm trying to understand, if there's something wrong in the ABC or the app, maybe it should be fixed?

Ok because the abc chemistry on this website says this Over time, water with low calcium levels will tend to dissolve calcium out of plaster, pebble, tile, stone, concrete, and to some extent fiberglass surfaces (...) A plaster pool or fiberglass pool should attempt to keep their CH between...

Ok. It doesn't change the water sensation? Unsure how to say that but softness or make it more comfortable for the people in the pool? I know out of balance ph and CL will cause discomfort and itchiness.

I have a heat pump. I have paver stone on top of the pool(it's fiberglass). On my pool aquarite, I have a sticker with all the levels on it I should aim (even cya) and it says 125 to 250. At the same time, it says to keep cya from 20-30

Ok, I just came back from the pool store (waiting on my Taylor kit to arrived). I confirmed they have the Taylor kit that I bought, saw the box and the reagents. Now, I followed what the app told me last time but for 30 000 liters not 20 000liters which screwed a bit. Good thing I haven't put...
