Definitely been fighting an issue similar to yours. Had a bad algae bloom that just wouldn't go away. Finally got the algae killed but my chlorine levels are still in the tank. I finally ordered a decent test kit and realized I had no CYA in the pool (could see the black dot clear as crystal...

Thanks! Yeah (at the risk of TMI) none of the innards had leaked out and the bodies seemed intact so I wasn't too too worried about it (the wife is probably more squeamish than me). I'll up the FC a bit this weekend and let it ride.

Hey all, I'll first start off and say I'm not sure where to put this so if the mods need to move it that's fine. So my wife and I returned home from work yesterday to find a few dead baby squirrels in our pool. My only guess is that during a brief thunderstorm yesterday, they were blown out of...

Do you run with a combination of your filter screens in? Currently I'm running all 4 sides with the fine mesh and seems to get a lot. I have the "finer" pleated inserts in the bag but just don't know when to use them.

Have you gone to the Maytronics website and used their authorized dealer finder tool? It worked well for me and just picked up an S300. They also mentioned that they could've ordered me any model I wanted. Hope that helps!

That's a sweet deal. I just got the S300 (not the s300i, only difference is Bluetooth controls) and it cleans my pool like a champ. Probably going to do a write up here in the next week or two.

Hey all, We moved into a house with a pool and have spent quite some time getting the pool up and running as it wasn't taken care of by the previous owners. We have just about everything up to standards except for the skimmer. We used a leak detection company which identified the leak (which is...

Just got a Dolphin S300...she has been dubbed Dolly the Dolphin

Just dropped my Dolphin S300 in my inground vinyl lined pool for the first time yesterday and it blew me away with how clean it got the pool. The only thing I heard about most robotic cleaners with regards to vinyl is to not set them down on surfaces (gravel, sand, etc) where the brushes could...

Glad I checked my phone before buying that! I did bring a sample of water in and my CYA was at 60. I did mention that we had 4 tablets in our feeder and that it hadn't changed in 2 weeks. Guy at the store (who has been helpful and upfront so far IMO) suspects we might have a bad control valve...

Thanks for the reply! I'm conveniently headed to the shop to buy more algaecide today (used the last bit when opening) so I'll run a water sample by there and get a full work up.

Hey all, So I've been scratching my head at this for a while and can't seem to identify the problem with my low chlorine levels. I've tested the water myself and taken it to a local shop and everything seems to be in normal ranges minus the chlorine. I learned that I wasn't properly charging...

Whoops! I apologize for the confusion. We were told by our pool inspection company that we have a dedicated return for a cleaner so I'm guessing we'd need the pressure side cleaner. We do have a rake so we'll get a majority of the large stuff out this weekend before purchasing. Thanks.

Hey all, The wife and I are just opened our pool up for the first time after getting our house this past winter. The previous owners did not take good care of the pool so we're playing a little bit of catch up with getting the pool up and running. We're looking at getting a pressure side...
