Pool Report
Comprehensive baseline assessment and owner summary
Executive Summary
What this pool needs right now
Strong overall system with chemistry drift and a few equipment watch items.
Lower pH and total alkalinity in stages
Current water balance is scale-forming and will continue to stress heater and salt-cell components if left untouched.
Document filter age and schedule deep clean
Observed operating condition is acceptable, but pressure and debris loading suggest the filter needs a stronger maintenance baseline.
Create a permanent equipment inventory
This will improve replacement planning and make every future visit more consistent.

Hydraulics
Circulation snapshot and dynamic head estimate
Range-based estimate from visible plumbing, filter configuration, heater, salt cell, and return count.
Enough for stable turnover and feature support, assuming pump programming is dialed correctly.
Good field estimate. Confidence rises with line-length measurements and runtime verification.

Owner Summary
Plain-English next steps
This pool is in a good position overall, but it is currently being held back by water-balance drift and missing system documentation. The fastest improvement is to lower pH and alkalinity in stages, then establish a proper filter and equipment baseline. Once that is done, the system becomes much easier to maintain consistently and much easier to budget for intelligently.
