I definitely lose some cya and this right here is why ..when it rains that basin fills and it overflows...or if I turn my valves a certain way to not circulate the basin water back into the pool it can overflow. It is very difficult to keep that basin at a good level, its always too low or too high.

Any other answers as to where my salt is going? My first year of ownership I hardly had to add any salt so this is very weird

Ran water test this morning after adding a gallon of Acid yesterday TA 60 PH only down to 7.5, was expecting PH to be even lower

its been a lot but not sure if you should watered my salt down that much. I have put in 140 pounds of salt since end of Nov.

Ran some tests today . PH back up to 8.0 and TA at 90. Salt test read 2400....no idea where all the salt is going. I know we had a lot of rain in the Houston area but Dang.

I put in some acid last night to lower my PH and TA...will keep doing that but for whatever reason my TA and PH wants to run high all the time. I know salt water pools tend to do that but mine is really quick to want to go to 8 plus PH and a TA of 130. Looking at my Pentair app which i know...

I redid mine yesterday, took my time and cleaned everything well....added some lube and it appears all of my leaks are gone as well. Thankfully

Thank you. I definitely dont think I have a leak, I know when it rains it will overflow. Also my fill line water comes off my water softner so that definitely lowers my CH overtime as well. I used to always fight high CH at my old house and here I fight low because of the fill water.

I have an autofill and technically an overflow....I have a infinity edge pool that has a basin that will fill up and overflow out into the grass. I will shoot at getting it up to 3000 lbs....I can put in some LC too although not really worried about it with water temps in the 50s

So I have a salt test, I just did it tonight. It read 2400 so its still low, not sure why. Over the past month according to my app, I have dumped approx half a bag of salt so call that 20pds and now 3 40 pd bags of salt. I will take a new reading tomorrow but dang I dont understand the salt...

Gonna get down to low 20s for sure. I will have the pool running 24/7

Its the low salt light on it and unit is just a year and a half old. I will test it myself tonight. Is my CYA an issue? Also my pool overflows with rain so I turn water and my refill water comes after my water softner too.

My CYA is low right now, is that important to get up at this point? Also I have added probably 100 pds of salt over the last 6 weeks and my salt cell is still showing a red light. Does the cold water keep the salt from dissolving correctly? My last test results were 1 FC 7.7 PH 90 TA 210 CH...

I am in this same boat, going to take apart and put back together today using these techniques. also my bottom plug is leaking too, My unit is only a year and a half old. Assuming there is some dirt in there somewhere so will clean and put back. Go freezing weather coming in next week so need...

Pentair guy beat me to the testing, he replaced the thermal regulator. It had a little bit of corrosion on it.

Ok thanks. I will read up on this more. I did think flow was an issue, I have the intellicenter and i put the pump on max flow but it will kick off sometimes without me toggling it off.

My mastertemp 400 keeps kicking off after it heats up for a while. First got SFS message, replaced that sensor and now getting HLS. Unit is only about a year old. Filed a claim with pentair and they are coming out today. I test and treat my water myself but being a salt pool I have dealt with...

Thanks. They used two 50lb bags apparently but claimed they sucked out 75%.

Ok point me to a magnesium hardness test And their vacuum sucked it out to dump into the grass ? I just asked this question to the company that did it and they were not aware of any of these issues.

so is this tile cleaning sulfate going to cause me any more issues with what my test results are?

Ok thanks guys. Water temp has been 91 all summer too btw.

This is what it looks like but this is not why I am getting the tile cleaning. I have scale on my wall tile for whatever reason but these flakes starting showing up this summer when it got really really hot here in Texas. I cleaned my salt cell in May after a year and it was clean, no scale in...

Ok thanks. I thought the poolmath app was working but doesnt seem like it is in my sig. My latest testing was: 3.5FC .0025 CC 8.2 PH 130 TA 225 CH 55 CYA .58 CSI I added about 60oz of acid to pull the PH down.

I find this interesting from the pool school article on the blasting because my pool has been blasting flakes out all summer. It has been extremely hot in Texas but my CH levels are low. Last I test I did was between 255-300 so why am I getting the flakes currently? In general with any kind of...

Great the guy is coming this morning to do this and they are using maxxstrip.

What are the negative effects of keiserite? Supposedly they vac it all out afterward but I am sure that is not 100%.

So this seems high although I have a infinity edge and a lot of spa tile?
