Zip ties. Hasn’t budged since I put these. Even with the kids going nuts in the pool.

Zip ties. I’ll take a pic of mine later.

I don’t remember the old one ever being this quiet. Maybe I just completely forgot what it sounded like originally. Now im going to be wondering if it’s even on. This new one pumps a bit more too. I think it’s 2450 GPH vs 2150 GPH with the old. So far I’m able to leave my inlet wide open...

Haha what a difference. New pump nearly no sound. Neighbors and I will sleep so much better now. Is is this thing even on? ;-) New pump: https://streamable.com/9fjm4 Old pump: https://streamable.com/bjypm

I turned it on for the first time this season and placed an order for another the same day. I was thinking of my neighbors too. It should be here Friday. I did go with another Intex, different model, 28651EG sand filter pump only. Open box new for $150. I’ll get a separate SWG later. Last season...

Mikey1972: Did your original Intex sound anything like this? Intex pump too loud?

I think so. What do you think? Streamable - free video publishing I forgot what it used to sound like a couple of years ago when it was new.

Thanks for this post. I think the same occurred in my pool over the winter. This was my first year with the pool. I didn't run my pump over the winter and I didn't add chlorine. Pool stayed clear. I was at around 60 to 70 CYA last year. Im not even measuring 20 this year. I've added some...

Woohoo!

I was going to say no text but suggest to add a notification but then I realized this is not an app! :) Anyone look at CSI result in poollogger? Is it matching TFP Pool Math?

I came across a post from chem_geek recently that said that the active chlorine level is lower in pools with CYA as the water gets colder. To me that means with a higher CYA and cold water you would have to bump up the FC higher than the SWG CYA/FC chart. Im not sure I'd go any higher with your...

Tested pH twice today. First test I recorded 8.0, second test I recorded 7.8. Chart shows over 8.0.

Did a video. Intex Auto Pool Cleaner and Intex LED Pool Fountain on PVC tee and ball valve - YouTube Should have turned each valve to show the water flow. Maybe next time. Nice to see the floor so clean in the morning without having to manually vacuum.

Looks like Amazon now has 17 more of these in stock and my order which was originally scheduled for December delivery will now be here Monday. Nice! Thanks to this thread I'm going to try to set mine up like jeffchap so I can maintain the original return/inlet.

No bottom rope on mine either. Does it loop through anything or just a regular old rope that ties around all legs?
