    Quick update on my pool - the green started getting lighter yesterday, I'm running my filter 24/7, continuing to brush and vacuum to waste daily, running the Polaris each day, backwashing 3X a day, testing every 2 hours and pouring the chlorine, keeping the levels high. I also installed a new pressure meter and it runs at about 1/2 power (15) when the pump is running and on backwash too. My water looks kind of greenish/grey right now. I am so happy to see progress. I can see the Polaris running on the shallow end now. Thanks for the continued support, especially from Carl S!

    My pool turned cloudy blue today and I can see through the water enough to see dead algae on the bottom! There's not much at all now - very small amount in the shallow end, more in the deep end. It sure was easier to vacuum this time, being able to see the algae. I received Ben's kit Tuesday and I used up all of the Drop Kit Cl test already, but it sure was a lifesaver. I've already ordered a replacement bottle. The good advice I rec'd here and Ben's test kit made all the difference in killing the algae my pool. The kit is worth it's weight in gold. I still have to get from here to clear sparkley water, but I am on my way - and I've learned so much and learning more each day.
