Today I saw this post from one of our regular posters, AnnaK, whose contributions are always welcome. So I decided to manually calculate the...
I've noticed over the years that when my solar cover is in place, my chlorine levels don't drop as fast. I can think of several reasons for that: 1....
I'm having a hard time finding information on using high saline as a permanent, maintenance-free solution. To avoid corrosion issues, I envision on...
Can Phenol Red be used to test ph levels in drinking water? I am on a well that has a soda ash feeder to increase the ph to acceptable levels. I used...
Didn't know where else to put this that would be appropriate, so here it goes...... Looking on amazon for a solar cover for my pool, I came across...
This thread presents my findings so far on pool water chemistry including the following: More Accurate Calcite Saturation Index (CSI) to replace...
Evan (waterbear), The acid and base demand tests actually do not make any assumptions about the alkalinity which is why such tests are in fact...
This thread is to discuss breakpoint chlorination. Does it work? If so, under what conditions? If not, then how do you get rid of Combined...
In trying to determine if the percent concentration of bleach on the Clorox bleach bottles and on their Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) forms was...

This thread presents my analysis of a study entitled, "A Comprehensive Study on The Microbicdal Properties of Stabilized and Unstabilized Chlorine...
Carl, In this post you said that TA has a theoretical upper limit of 200 ppm. How is that so? There is a limit to calcium carbonate saturation,...
I originally posted the following on another forum, but thought it was valuable enough to post here as well. First, I describe exactly what is in...
After accumulating multiple pieces of conflicting evidence, I think it's about time to discuss and investigate the mechanism of how CYA protects...
(I also have this post duplicated at this post on the TroubleFreePool forum.) I just used some Borax for the first time to raise pH. Usually,...
This is a continuation of a discussion from this post. First, for information about the chlorine/CYA relationship, you can look at this thread. ...
This thread is in response to the question posed in this thread as it is a technical response (so belongs in The Deep End). The short answer to...
This post is a response to this post where the response is technical so is going into The China Shop. Monochloramine is a weaker oxidizer and...
There is a product by Natural Chemistry called Instant Pool Water Conditioner shown here. I wrote about this product on this forum in this thread. ...
In this post Ben wrote the following: While it is true that there is no evidence that bromine combines with CYA the way that chlorine does so does...
There is this discussion over at Trouble Free Pool that has uncovered the apparent fact that granulated calcium carbonate is the common filler in...
