Update:

My water is nearly as clean as I like it!
FC: 8
CC: 0
TC: 8
pH: 7.3
T/A: 90
CYA: 38 (approx)
CH: Who Cares?
Temp: 78

I realize I had JUST a little too much DE in the sand this morning when I saw that at low speed the pressure was 20 psi! But after a back wash and less DE it's fine!

Do I sense a SWC in your future? Sorry, had to go there!

Nah, but I may break down next year and put in a heat pump for April, early May and September.

CarlD, that is just too funny for you! YOU are the one who told this newbie last year that 'green' is bad! You mods have a wonderful time together and I miss yall. Just like everyone else, I feel bad that PF is kinda' closed. If Ben would come back, I would support him, as would others. Thanks to all you mods for being there for us.

Yep, if it can happen to you, it can happen to anyone!

Take care, Joyce

Joyce -- You are right. We mods all do have a wonderful time with this forum. Carl, Al and I have all had the opportunity to hang out together and we had a blast. We are still working on someday getting together again and managing to get Janet there with us, too!

As far as PF closing -- although we know that that may be the case one day, for the time being we are all 4 still here and very much involved. As long as we can login and help, we'll be right here. Thank you for you kind words.

I thought I was ready to close, but this last week it got hot and my carefully prepped water has clouded up. I'm back to shocking again. I hadn't run the pump for 10 days thinking the nights in the 40's had cooled the water. But, it hit 96 last Sunday and has been in the high 80's-low 90's all week.
I can't just let it go, it looked too good before it warmed up.
