Poolbee and waste:

Thanks for the help... Like I said before... I was here before with my kiddie pool... The help that I got maintaining that was great!!! (Never had a problem with water quality following the directions given here..)

Poolbee - ordered the tft tesk kit and salt strips yesterday!!!

The pool guy that installed my pool gave me a bunch of stuff... chems, test kit etc... he told me to stay from the muriatic acid... gave me pH- instead.

He also gave me a de-calclifier(sp?) should I use it? told me it was optional...

the BS test kit that the pool guy gave me is hard to get a chlorine reading as the yellows blend... but given that it shows very high... havent used the pool yet as it has not been warm enough...

Waste... my question to you is ...
is there any way to lengthen the SWG cable to the box... ??

how accurate is the instant salt PPM on the unit and should I trust it?
what should I use to adjust salt the average (default screen) or the instant?

I know there are a lot of factors that effect chlorine... but since I am having high CH levels how do I go about adjusting the SWG to maintain a high but safe level of chlorine... should I go to 100% and work backward or go low and work up?...

I know the pump needs to run during daylight for ch production... does it need to run at night... if so how long.... in other words how long should I run the timer??


Also.... I had to take the pump offline for a three days.... I am putting up a shed (aka pump house... ) What do I need to do to restart the pool... I dont intend to use it for a while.... as I know it would filter and rechlorinate...
