  1. Thanks Water Wizard. We no longer have a saltwater chlorine generator. We replaced it with a chlorine tab "tube" about 8 months ago. I'm sure there is residual salt though. I probably need to do a partial drain. We just can't seem to keep the chemicals balanced anymore. The pool just doesn't sparkle like it used to. Meanwhile, I will visit pool school and up the chlorine. I just shocked the pool and will keep an eye on chlorine levels. Phosphates are high too. It seems silly to fix that if I have to do a partial drain anyway.
  2. Help!! I have a problem. Leslie's Pool Supply is telling us to drain half of our pool to bring the TDS in to check. Our pool is about 10 years old. It was a salt pool until about a year ago, when we switched back to chlorine tabs. I would really like to avoid draining the pool but it is having algae outbreaks and also sometimes has trouble with high cyanuric acid, despite the cholrine levels being good. We never used to have any water problems. Here is a summary of our levels. Maybe you can help!! FAC 2ppm TAC 2 CH 360ppm CYA 80ppm TA 100ppm pH 7.8 Copper 0ppm Iron 0ppm TDS 3500 Pho 300 ppb Thanks!!!
