Thank you for the welcome and reply!

The filter listing says "Super Star Clear" I am not sure which model though, hoping the filter has it listed. Previous home owner said it lasts for about 2 years and it still has a year left. (its cartridge style).

I suppose I might as well add my chlorine level is very high at the moment. (bright orange) Will this drop on its own with sunlight?

One thing I am worried about is the PH level. It is very low at the bottom of the scale. I am kind of confused on what to add and how to raise it up to the range its suppose to be? It did rain yesterday fairly heavy for an hour or so. Would that of lowered it that much? Will it bounce back or do I need to add something?

Thanks again!
