    New house, new pool, thank you for the help!

    We liked the house, but loved the pool. I have always wanted a pool but thought it was a bad investment to put one in myself.

    So I just realized I have a t15 cell and it was set on t3. Could this have caused the problem? Just set it to t15 and waiting to see what happens.

    Help please! Salt cell issue

    Hi everyone, I just bought a house a couple months ago with a pool that has a salt system. Everything has been working fine, had water tested on Saturday at pinch a penny and was told to add 1.6 lbs of stabilizer and 1.4 cups of acid. Added as recommended. Noticed yesterday that the inspect...
