    Replacing old salt cell

    Thanks! My bad in regards to the cited Forum Rules & Etiquette 7. I've been a member for a while, but I don't post that often, so it wasn't anything intentionally disrespectful. This is a great site, very informative & friendly, etc., and I'm appreciative that it exists. Again, my apologies.

    Replacing old salt cell

    Hey Chris, thanks for your response above! I think though you meant RJ-60 vs. RK-60? Do you know if this CircuPool RJ-60 is fully compatible with Jandy's PureLink Sub-Panel Power Center? All of my equipment is Jandy, which is now approaching its 6th summer as my install was completed early...

    Replacing old salt cell

    NOTE: Moved from here. I'm looking to replace my 5 year old SWG (Jandy PLC 1400) as I'm again apparently in need of another sensor that has gone bad (continuous "No Flow" reading) according to my pool service company. It was just replaced (Jandy Port Sensor Kit, 3 Port Cell, 16' Cable; Part#...

    Jandy Apure 35 Issues

    Chris, Thanks for your response. I'll have to check out Circupool, admittingly, I've never heard of that brand. I have a 32-33k gallon pool, so I'd need to size accordingly, and for a region, Charlotte, NC, that gets a lot of sun and typical temps June-August in the low to mid 90's. So...

    Jandy Apure 35 Issues

    It appears I have a bad/defective AquaPure sensor. I purchased it new online (OEM Port Sensor Kit, 3 Port Cell, 16' Cable, #R0452500) last April from an online retailer and had it installed professionally. It was the latest version sensor to go with the Jandy AquaPure PLC 1400 SWG. In the...

    Local area pool store water testing descrepancies

    On an aside, I think I may have discovered the culprit for my high CC level prior to my shocking last week. I suspected my Polaris 360's float was not working as effective any longer due to it not running optimally. When I checked/unscrewed the float, it was full of green algae water along...

    Local area pool store water testing descrepancies

    Thanks all...figured no one size fits all. :) Had to drain about 4" of water out of the pool Thursday as we left for Litchfield, SC beaches for the holiday weekend as they were calling for 4-6" of rain in Charlotte. I'm not sure how much we got up there today, but this Tropical Storm down here...

    Local area pool store water testing descrepancies

    I have a general question. Is there a standard type FC loss considered normal/day during the summer months? Or, are there too many variables like amount of direct sunlight the pool gets, CYA levels, temperature of the water, swimmer load, etc. Our pool during the summer months sits in direct...

    Local area pool store water testing descrepancies

    Okay...thanks! No cloudiness, etc. the water is very clear. I can see the screw heads on the bottom drains, even with the constant minor ripples in the water from the spa spillover. Our pool is 4 to 6 to 4...drains are in 6' of water. My biggest problem to date (prior to this apparent cc...

    Local area pool store water testing descrepancies

    Okay...I'll give it a try next time. :) In regards to your post above (#64) about my 22 and 30 ppm readings...I was just experimenting with the mentioned palely pink vs. 'completely' clear as those were my first tests I've done using the kit. - - - Updated - - - Got it...thanks! The...

    Local area pool store water testing descrepancies

    I took a water sample last night around 11 p.m., some half hour after turning off the SWG. I recorded an FC reading of approx. 19 ppm. This a.m. at approx. 8:45 a.m., I gathered another sample to complete the OCLT. I recorded an FC reading of approx. 18 ppm...so I believe at a 1 ppm...

    Okay. I just turned off SWG, I'll go out around 11 p.m. to get a sample and do the FC test. Then in the a.m. (before direct sunlight hits the pool...which will be around 9:30 a.m.) I'll take another sample and run the FC again. I trust the kit... :) Thanks!

    Local area pool store water testing descrepancies

    I ran a test today, I'm not sure how accurate these numbers are as it was my first time doing this. I ran subsequent tests on FC, CC, CYA & CH within a few minutes of each other. (From additional reading, I guess I needed to take additional tests at a minimum of 1 hr. from the previous). I'll...
