Evening gents. Watching the 'Boys take on the ****. 0-0 so far.

He made it look like he had some sort of Masters in chemistry to balance out the water. I just drained it (gravity so who cares how long?), cleaned it (maybe 15 minutes), filled it (again, who cares? It does that unattended), checked the water chemistry baseline and found out that right out of the tap it's damn close. Added a little PH and Chlorine and it's perfect.

Bob, crushing pool boy dreams one spa at a time.

Years ago when I was running the dealership in Dallas we had tenants in here. I hired a pool guy and the first two bills included a charge for 75 lbs of chlorine tabs.

Evening, guys.
Yeah, the Prime app is slow to load and respond to commands giving no indication that the command has been acknowledged and is being processed. And it kicked me out completely during last weeks game.

Odd, Greg. I am no tech but have you made sure the software is up to date? Uninstall/reinstall? Unplug the TV and plug back in?
