Rule Your Pool

00:00 - Intro

01:42 - Orthophosphates (PO4) are the building block of phosphate compounds

03:58 - Inorganic phosphate types

05:07 - If PR-10,000 clouds, you are watching it remove phosphates from water

05:48 - Tests can be decieving, and inaccurate. And they only measure orthophosphates.

07:52 - When PR-10,000 reduces less than expected, it removed phosphates that did not show up on your test kit

08:54 - Try to avoid chemical conflicts 

10:21 - Phosphates in drinking water

11:59 - Jarred gets to do the outro. Thanks for listening!

00:00 - Intro

01:03 - There's a difference between using chlorine and losing chlorine

02:11 - Chlorinate and cross your fingers

03:59 - Does warmer weather really mean you need more CYA to protect chlorine from more intense sunlight?

08:49 - CYA's other impacts

09:43 - High pH actually does increase chlorine loss, because OCl- dissociates from CYA in higher pH water

12:07 - Jarred did not read all five bullet points in our extensive show notes

13:53 - Low-energy Jarred summarizes for the fans

00:00 - Intro

01:51 - Not all of our advice conflicts with industry standards and texbooks. We just don't believe in the dogma of range chemistry.

02:56 - What is range chemistry?

04:31 - Water never read the textbook. Just like Jarred.

07:07 - Why are people more concerned with scale than etching?

08:39 - Aggressive water looks good. Just like Jarred.

16:08 - Being blind to the LSI is expensive, and it means you're going to fight your water to conform to ranges it doesn't want to conform to.

19:09 - Chasing pH is not profitable, nor is it beneficial for the pool.

21:07 - Be proactive and Rule Your Pool. Regardless of what the pool store's software says, because it's based on range chemistry. You can be focused on the LSI, which reigns supreme.

23:22 - Jarred's summary: we teach this way because it helps you treat water the way water wants to be treated.

23:50 - Eric's summary: Prescription without diagnosis is called malpractice. (Jarred's summary was better).

09:14 - We are not in the stain-removal business. But SC-1000 can help soften and remove scale.

12:49 - SC-1000 considerations to be aware of. First, water temperature matters.

14:27 - Second consideration: SC-1000 wipes out chlorine until it can do its job.

16:32 - SC-1000 is biodegradable, but that requires bacteria that cannot survive in a swimming pool. So it has staying power.

17:33 - Frequently asked questions about SC-1000

19:24 - Wrap up, summary, and thanks for listening!

00:00 - Intro

01:23 - What is an Orenda purge? It is a deliberately strong initial dose of enzymes and phosphate remover (and sometimes chelant) to reset your water. It gives your water the most reduced chlorine demand possible.

03:58 - The entire purpose of an Orenda Purge is remove chlorine-resistant contaminants. 

07:45 - SC-1000 chelates metals and prevents oxidation and staining, but most pools do not need it every year. It will stay in for a very long time.

09:00 - PR-10,000 is a fast-acting, one-and-done product. It leaves behind no residual. And it works very well in tandem with enzymes.

10:42 - Every Orenda purge is based on CV-600 or CV-700 enzymes. Enzymes are the foundation of the purge.

12:51 - Oils and organics float, while dust falls. So if you are trying to clear the pool after using PR-10,000, use enzymes so that oils do not keep the dust suspended in the water.

17:01 - CV-600/700 and SC-1000 purge doses are the exact same amount: one quart per 10,000 gallons.

21:13 - Summary. Thanks for listening!

00:00 - Intro

00:58 - To reduce alkalinity, use acid. But there are a few types of acid. And what, exactly, does acid do? It converts alkalinity into carbonic acid (dissolved CO2).

04:17 - The amount of dissolved CO2 in your water determines the pH.

04:36 - Clarifying "carbonate alkalinity" vs. "total alkalinity". 

07:45 - The Orenda App adjusts alkalinity automatically for you when you update the CYA level.

08:45 - How to actually add acid to reduce alkalinity: do not column pour! Dilute dilute dilute.

13:55 - How to deal with tap water with high alkalinity (150+ ppm) or very high alkalinity (200+ ppm).

17:16 - Reduce alkalinity slowly. Do not remove more than 20 ppm at a time. Aim for 10-15 ppm of alkalinity reduction at a time. The more dilution, the better.

18:12 - To reduce risk of 'tanking the pH' while reducing alkalinity, aerate the water. And there are other ways of stirring up the water without circulating it through the system.

20:00 - How to raise alkalinty: Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and Sodium carbonate (soda ash). Bicarb is more appropriate for raising alkalinity because it barely raises pH, whereas soda ash will raise the pH significantly for the same alkalinity addition.

23:49 - Summary. Thanks for listening!
