    Default Re: Water does not appear to be filtered very well

    Well... I'm home and went on the search for the Clarifier I last used.

    I found an old bottle of "Leslie's Ultra Bright".

    It was open and 1/4 empty so that must be what I used.

    I also found an unopened bottle of "Sparkle" clarifier whihc I bought from the old Eastern Manufacturing Co in Baltimore.

    I don't know exactly how old the Clarifier is, but I am going to dump some in my 17K Galloin AGP and a few drops directly into the skimmer in hopes I can catch those small particles that seem to keep getting past my Cartridge system.

    Last time I used it, it "seemed" to work/help... but in the end, who knows why my problem cleared up.

    It's been many years ago......

    BUT... B4 I spill any into the pool.... BEN.... what do you think ?

    I've had to use about 10 boxes of 20 Mule team borax to get my pH up to 7.2. I think it's some residue from the Borax which keeps gathering on thge bottom of my pool.

    I use Borax all the time to adjust the pH, but I have never, ever had to use so much of it as I did this time.

    And I've never seen this sort of very fine particles that I can't keep out with vacuuming.

    I guess I should be check out my cartridge, and maybe even replace it with a new one.

    Tim
