Thanks for your reply!! I feel the same way! After $90 more dollars spent there Saturday. I have already drained and started over once this summer just getting fed up and seriously about to give up!!

I went to the pool store Saturday they told me to add a whole bottle of Phosphate remover and wait 48 hours, then add 3lbs of shockwave "chlorine " to my pool and then 24 hours to vacuum it and add a half of a bottle of Algaecide. I just added end the 3lbs of shockwave yesterday and my pool is...

All winter my pool was uncovered and stayed clear without the pumps. The moment I turned my pump & SWG on its turned GREEN & cloudy! I need recommendations on what to do.. The threads about "slamming" are they ok to do with a SW pool? The pumps seem to be working fine. I don't have a pool...

I've had the same issues, I'm a new pool owner, purchased an AG 16x48" Ultra Frame Intex pool and also purchased a SWG (Krystal Clear I20v) and at first it kept saying High salt, so we partially drained it, re-filled what we drained and high salt error was gone. Worked well for two weeks until...

Thanks for your reply. Got the water tested yesterday, everything was perfect except chlorine level. They said it's not producing chlorine (duh right?) obviously because it was saying low salt. The Pool store said my salt level was HIGH not low, so I was thinking yesterday it was a sensor error...

I've added 35lbs of salt, turned the SWG off, and am leaving the regular pump running to dissolve the salt. Should I put regular Clorox in the pool? Or i have a crazy question I know: Should we go ahead and turn the SWG back on and "boost" or it probably wouldn't work right until the salt...

I'm following this post because we're having the same issue. We drained ours about 8 inches last night and it's still saying high salt "sleep" so now I'm draining again then will add fresh water. I have an intex 16x48 and found out my husband added 35 lbs more than was needed. They say it...

Thank you both! Piolin: my husband put 160 pounds of salt... 35lbs too much.. We drained about 8 inches and refilled it last night, turned the system back on this morning and it said "working" with a green light for an hour, then checked it again and now it's red "high salt" and "sleep" so...

Thanks, I bought some CYA today. It's also been 24 hours so I just turned my SWG on and it started beeping saying high salt then went into sleep mode. So now I'm supposed to drain it a little then fill up with fresh water correct? Thanks in advance, I'm slowly learning.

Thanks for your replys.. I just added some bleach to the pool. I'm also keeping the regular pump on for 24 hours then running my SWG. I'm also going to a pool place nearby within the next few days and is that where I can purchase CYA?

Bleach? How much? Even after adding the salt today? It's a 16x48 5,000 gallon pool Thanks for your reply.

My husband and I purchased an Intex 16x48" ultra frame pool and also purchased an Intex Crystal Clear saltwater system. We have set the pool up, filled it with water, added 125 pounds of salt and turned the regular filter on. It said to leave regular pump running and the swg off for 24 hours...
