Additional Water Quality Notes

The water quality overall is in good condition. The salt level is currently at 2900 ppm. The Cynuric is low at 10-30 ppm. All other levels are in ideal range. That said this pool is 7-12 years old. And every 5-10 years a pool should be drained as the TDS gets higher. Drains cost $250-450 depending on level of service.

Main Drain Notes: The main drain does not appear to be working. This is caused by a spring valve in the skimmer. I feel this should be removed and open to allow proper flow using the installed float valve.
