The temperature in NY is dripping below freezing tonight and tomorrow. That hasn’t happen for at least 12 years. Should I keep pool running, turn heater on; just to be safe.

So my pool was just opened yesterday and currently is 41 degrees out. I have opened it before, but I think I have been doing the chemicals in the wrong order. I am wondering what the order of chemicals should be? The pool is green (not too bad) and very cloudy, leaves still need to be cleaned...

good morning. I am starting to see a little bit of green algae forming around creases of the pool, and a little on some sides. You wouldn't even notice it if you weren't looking for it. Can I swim in it? Do I have to SLAM to get rid of it? I really don't want my pool out of commission for...

So its finally stopped raining and warming up in NY. My pool temp is still in the mid 60's. I am planning to run pool heater (and pump) for 18-24 hours I have a new SWG (IC60). I want to run the heater for a lot longer amount of time than required to run the SWG. Do I unplug SWG or turn it...

My question could rain a lot of rain for many days cause *fault* check ign control" The heater was working about 1 week ago (before had serviced just to make sure everything was working properly) but now it seems like the heat turns on for 5-10 seconds and then shuts off. Should I just be...

I am testing the salt levels in my pool. When using Professional TDS ppm Meter I get reading of 3,200 PPM, but when I use the Taylor K-1766 Sodium Chloride Testing Kit I am getting reading of 8,200 (41 drops). Any ideas what is going on. The IC60 says salt levels are fine. Appreciate any help.

Intellichlor IC60.

Let me start by saying I am converting my pool to SWG this year. The pool company that I use to open and close (and repair if need be) recommended I replace my sand filter. This is without actually checking it My original plan was to clean it; as it hasn't been cleaned in a very long time. I...

I need a pump/motor recommendation to replace my Hayward 1.5 HP 1 Speed (Model SP2610X15). I want to replace it with a 2 speed or variable Hayward so that I will not have to change the plumbing except for the fittings attached to the pump. I am looking for quieter pump that saves some money...

Good morning everyone. Basically, when I turn on the pump it stops a few seconds later (sometimes in 10-15 seconds). The pump simply turns off. Also, when it starts, it is making a noise that is louder than usual. To get it back working, I need to reset the circuit breaker in my basement for...

I have a few questions, but first can someone tell me what this is called? It is used by my Polaris (pressure side cleaner) and is also is the pool fill line when I need it. Normally there is a small filter in it. Second, do I need to have it removable? Or can I just take the filter out like...
