Was able to open up the power center box, saw it was wired for 220. Installed the new cell and everything works fine. Thanks.

Thanks. I didn't buy a new power center. Just bought a new salt cell. I was under the impression I'd just have to remove the old cell and put the new cell on without worrying if the power center is 220 or 110. I'm having trouble opening the power center box because the screw is rusted and...

I just purchased a new replacement IC40. to replace the one that crapped out. The instructions tell me to ensure the line voltage matches the power center wiring. If the line voltage is 200-223 VAC, I am supposed remove the lid on the power center to set the power voltage to 220 wiring which...

Well, got around to replacing the flow switch today. Unfortunately none of the symptoms went away. Guess it's time for a new salt cell.

Thanks Jim. What you said makes sense, especially since the cell is about four years old. I'll change out the flow switch when I get it and see what happens.

For the last four days, when my Pentair IC40 system starts up, the salt level lights flash green and red and the flow glows red. About four or five hours later, the salt light glows green but the flow LED goes off (not red, just off). The cell light also glows green when it's active like it's...

JoyfulNoise: Thank you for this info. Will definitely use ascorbic acid next time!

Thanks again. Is there a particular brand/type of sequestrant you would recommend. Is that the same thing as a clarifier? I'm confused with all the different types of Jack's Magic Sequestrants: purple, blue, sapphire, etc. Appreciate your help.

Thanks. The StainFree is 100% citric acid. The instructions say to very gradually increase the FC afterwards. I'm thinking I didn't wait long enough to add the bleach. Also, never had a problem with iron before (the pool is 9 years old). I'll go ahead and add the CYA as you recommended.

Thanks to the BBB and this terrific website, my pool has been troublefree for years. I couldn't find a recent post about why my pool is green after using StainFree, thus this post: I noticed some small brown stains on my vinyl liner this year, caused by leaves left in the pool too long. So...

Interesting reading. Thanks for sharing. Many people wouldn't. Keep us posted.

I am enjoying watching your progress. Can't wait to see a photo with the pups and water!
