Remember to go through PoolDoc or WaterMom's links whenever buying on Amazon! And remember also, that Amato Industries discounts shipping for multiple items upon check-out (not before). Check especially your supplies of : 0871. 0870, 0004, and 0013. Most keep well over time and stored out of sun and cool-ish.
Re: Test results on new pool in Tucson
Uh, sorry. Another thought. At 500G, can you just drain and refill that spa? AND please make a signature so we won't forget your spa in the future!
Re: Test results on new pool in Tucson
I did accidentally drain it about 3 weeks ago, not sure how I did it or how it refilled. How's that for competence?

Re: Test results on new pool in Tucson
I'll see where things are in am, again with monsoon rains, it may work for me a little
Re: Test results on new pool in Tucson
Okay. Will wait to hear. Maybe monsoon rains could refill that spa! But really? Not sure how you drained and refilled? That sounds like the systems are connected somehow. I know nothing about hydraulics but that doesn't make sense to me.

Actually, pollen in the water will increase chlorine consumption. Anything organic in the water will. It is not the entire cause of his issue but just wanted to clarify that anything organic in the water (pollen, leaves, etc.) will use more chlorine.
Re: Test results on new pool in Tucson
Retested this am, spa ph at 7.2, chlorine levels held at 17 at both pool and spa. I think I'm making progress ( but won't let foot off gas yet)

Important clarification, thanks!
Re: Test results on new pool in Tucson
I'm not sure if this helps or not, but, mary jo had a very similar situation in this thread: http://www.poolforum.com/pf2/showthread.php/25802-Clear-but-no-chlorine. The pool had high CYA and chlorine demand after an extended period of insufficient chlorination. The good news is that it was eventually resolved by maintaining shock level FC for a very long time.
Re: Test results on new pool in Tucson
Mary Jo (see above link) read your thread and wondered about your CC. Last reading I saw was on the 14th or so. Spa? Pool? Either greater than 0.5?
