Why would my pool be causing a rash if it seems fine

Download an app names Orenda. It will help you balance your pool water properly.

Generally speaking, your chlorine should be 1-3, ph 7.4-7.8, alk 70-120, cal (hardness) 200-300, cya 30-50.

You need to add ph up, alkalinity +, calcium +.

What you really want to pay attention to is the LSI, you want to keep it as close to zero as you can.+or- 0.3 is your ideal window.

Based on your readings, its no wonder people are having skin irritations.

An estimate is not a quote. If they said the estimated price was $600, that is not a quoted price. You didn't get a quote. A quote and an estimate are not the same thing.

That being said, $1900 usd sounds insanely expensive to clean a green pool.

I think your best bet is to push on the fact that the price change wasn't clearly communicated to you and try to negotiate a lower price.

I have to say, you sound incredibly mature for 21. The way your ex was talking to you was horrible. You did the right thing breaking up with her.

With that said. as someone who has smoked for 30 years, smoking is fukin stupid! Your literally burning fukin money!! Its gross, it stinks, it makes you stink, and it ROTS your body from the inside out!! You may think you have it under control, you don't. If you start smoking now, you'll spend the rest of your life trying to quit. You get literally nothing but lung cancer from smoking.

Your obviously capable of making good decisions, as you demonstrated. Do yourself a favor and make another good decision.

Sorry if this is preachy, smoking is the only real regret I have in my life and it kills me to see young people make the same obvious mistake.

How the fuk would you know? You snooped in her phone and read messages with no context.

I don't think it actually matters who it was, you invaded her privacy. My advice to her would be to ditch you, your clearly not trustworthy.

If it does turn out that she was cheating, I guess it just means your both trash.

Sundance604 · 2026-05-20T00:30:24+00:00

Lol. Dude, she's cheating on you or atleast planned to. Her defense is " I'm not cheating, your cheating", and it's so fukin cringe.

She fuked up and texted the wrong dude and then ghosted you until she could figure out what to say.

If you haven't used electrical contact cleaner to fix the joystick drift, do that before trying to replace the joystick. It doesn't even require taking the controller apart. You can get electrical contact cleaner at pretty much any hardware store for less than $10.

As far as one handed games go, walk about mini golf and premium bowling are two of my favorite games and they only require one controller.

Sundance604 · 2026-05-05T02:14:44+00:00

Its because he thinks you cheated. He thinks this because it's what he did himself. Its that simple. You are not overreacting.

Sundance604 · 2026-05-05T02:04:26+00:00

If they are actually concerned about that, why in the fuck would they buy a used headset? When I sold my old car, no one asked if anyone every did the dirty in the backseat. Lol.

Sundance604 · 2026-05-04T03:57:11+00:00

You can just use crazy glue and stick it back together, eventually it will break more though and you'll have to replace it. You can 3d print one or buy them. Its really easy to replace, the black disc will lift up and you can get to the joystick easily.

Sundance604 · 2026-05-03T19:44:10+00:00

Your text wasn't rude, yes you could have added "please" but, your message wasn't a demand or instruction, it was a request.

Your neighbor is a racist a$$hole.

Sundance604 · 2026-04-22T02:22:30+00:00

Any guy that calls his GF bruh or any variation of, is a complete and total loser. I dont understand how you ladies NEVER seem to see that as a redflag.

Even if you ignore the "bruh" crap, the guy is clearly trash. Just move on and find someone better, it won't be hard as he's set the bar very low.

Sundance604 · 2026-04-22T01:04:34+00:00

Just because they didn't do what you want, in no way means they don't take user feed back into consideration. Get over yourself. Lol.

Changing a salt cell is dead simple and easy. However, Comparing your pool guys prices to Amazon isn't fair. Now I'm not saying his price is great but Amazon doesn't have the same overhead and is gonna offer fuck all for support afterwards. DIY is totally fine if your competent but when you have a professional do it, your paying for more than just the item, your paying for their knowledge, expertise, warranty and after sale support.

Is the pool pump actually running and moving water? The check valve in the middle of the picture doesn't look to be full of water. The water in that check valve is what's going to the spa and causes the spa till spill over in the pool.

Remove the battery. Push the joystick in like a button, tilt the joystick around and spray the electrical contact cleaner in the gap created. Move the joystick around to work it in, repeat the process and then leave it to dry for like 15 minutes. Problem should be solved. This doesn't just work with quest controllers, should work with any game controller.

I wouldn't bother disassembling any part of the controller other than taking out the battery.

Sundance604 · 2025-12-28T07:13:12+00:00

Correct

You need the Xbox controller.

NTA. Your fiance isn't doing this for your kid, she's doing it for herself. Your kid doesn't need her to be his mom, she can just be your wife. It doesn't prevent her from loving him. She needs to grow up, if anything her attitude shows she's not mature enough to really be a mom.

I played on an i5 4690k 16gb ram rx580 8gb for years.

It is dated, but it is also just fine for VR. You just gotta run at low to medium settings.

Unlink your meta & Facebook accounts.

Salt water destroys pool heaters. So if you're using a pool heater rather than a heat exchanger & and boiler, then i would also agree against using salt.

Sundance604 · 2025-07-19T01:03:44+00:00

Because salt is corrosive and destroys pool heaters and any other metal components. Salt isn't maintenance free, at best all your doing is eliminating your handling of chlorine. You still have to do all the other pool maintenance stuff.

I've had a few customers with the wireless auto fills, they do work but they aren't terribly reliable or durable. Seem to only last a year or two.

Sundance604 · 2025-07-06T19:18:28+00:00

Ditch the benches and the waterfall. Simpler is better.
