It's a joke...but I think I have no choice but to go along...Pentair won't do anything until it gets lowered, and I can't even get the guy to call me back that was here. So I will make them happy and waste my money. FYI, I found that stuff online for half the price of Leslies for a 3L. I guess I...

So I just got off the phone with Pentair and they said the guy that was out here tested my SWG and said the phosphates were clouding up the sensors and that is why it is saying clean cell and they also said it is producing chlorine but the phosphates are instantly taking the chlorine it is...

So how do I get my phosphate to an acceptable level to appease these guys, and what actually is an acceptable level for phosphates?

Did the Overnight FC Loss test: 8p=4.5ppm 530a=4.0ppm Looks like I am good as far as algae goes

Yeah, I checked all those. The Usage Hour diagnostic shows less than 2000hrs of runtime, which is the lowest it will read. There is absolutely no scale buildup, salt level is fine (my K-1766 kit shows the same level of salt as the EasyTouch), cable connections are good, no wear on blades...I...

I believe the cell is not producing any chlorine at all-when I set it to 100% output, I still get no detectable chlorine in my pool...but I guess if my chlorine is being eaten up by algae, that explains that-But it still doesn't explain why my check cell light is flashing...I am not sure that...

My Intellichlor IC40 stopped working about a 1-1/2 months ago. The check cell light started flashing and EasyTouch would say "clean cell". The cell has been acid washed and is clean yet having same issue. I then drained about 2/3rds of the pool b/c my CH was in the high 500's. Still same issue...

I used scale tech once...waste of money. Did absolutely nothing.

Here are my current readings: FC=3 TC=3 pH=7.6 TA=150 CH=350 CYA=50 Salt=3200 Water Temp=91 Air Temp=100 Within a week my pH will be 8 and TA in the 170's. I am constantly adding acid. I tested my tap water: pH is 7.5 and TA is 225. Am I fighting a losing battle here? If I invest in a...
