Agree with others. Get your own test kit. Besides the PH test (which is sometimes difficult even for me to decipher with "perfect" vision), all other tests change is dissimilar colors like red changes to blue. For salt, clear changes to salmon color. Definitely sounds like an algae problem and...

Awesome. Thanks again!!

Thanks @mknauss so as far as rated hours it doesn’t matter? Supposedly my cell has a life span of 15000 hours.

Been trying to search for an answer through the threads, but haven't found anything. Perhaps my searching technique is not sufficient. :LOL:. I apologize if this has been answered in some form. I installed my RJ60+ (currently powered off) the other day and opened my pool yesterday. All numbers...

Good tips here everyone. Thanks! Another question though: The Circupool Control box is wired directly to power? Or is it powered through timer? My question is, when power is killed to the cell, is it killed to the control unit as well?

So I should be good with the first option, running the timer and SWCG on a separate circuit than the VS pump? Thanks Marty!

Looking to purchase the CircuPool RJ-60 Plus for my pool. Just want to make sure I'll be setting it up correctly. I understand the plumbing aspects and the need for straight pipe, but am still confused about the electrical aspect. I have a VSP with its own onboard timer and is directly powered...

Ok. Thanks for the tips!

That’s a good idea. Does anyone have any links to threads where people have done this with pictures? I can’t seem to find any during my searches.

Wow. That’s a lot wider than I was gonna go. Glad I asked.

Does anybody know a good width to cut the concrete so that I can get my hands in and down to set pipe and make new connection to return fitting? I don’t want to go too wide, but I certainly don’t want to be too narrow. Also, will I have to drill in rebar to old concrete when pouring new...

No equipment will be down there at all. Lol. To difficult based on my yard/house setup. All by hand.

Sorry guys, thanks for the responses. Ended up going with the pump, doing my repair work then hopefully be back in action soon. Sorry for late responses. I didn’t get any notifications on this thread. ?

Sounds good. Maybe just a couple inches of gravel to give support under the pipes and then just top off with the dirt? Thanks for the responses Pool_Medic!

Started trenching for one of the return lines today, currently sitting at about 19 inches with a couple of large rocks in my path. Should I go up and over them and lose some depth in the isolated spots? Or just lessen my trench to 12" or so? My plan is to lay the cheap bricks underneath the...
