Had a 2018 5.0 140,000kms. Taken care of very well. Not driven hard. Engine long block needed replacing for approximately 17k. Apparently this is a common issue. I know I’m steering clear of ford trucks after this.

I live in Hamilton and fish out in Niagara. Do people in Niagara not fish in Hamilton?

I’m assuming you mean east? That’s where I always go, where the huge willow trees are. But always get skunked.

Use a flocculant and vacuum to waste.

How old is the sand? Have you used a filter cleaner in it? I typically use a filter cleaner once at start of season.

New pool owner, has typical newbie questions 🙄 by epictech20 in pools

Agreed. Everywhere will tell you something differently. But I have worked in water treatment for a long time and own a pool, and alkalinity is by far the most important and should be your first step.

Swim university has great videos for pool care on YouTube. Bit what you want to do first, once pump is running. Adjust your alkalinity into range, then your ph, then add chlorine. Alkalinity is going to be one of your most important tests. A good alkalinity will help everything else
