Just installed a variable speed pump. Trying to dial in speeds. My RG60G is throwing a water alarm unless I'm running at 45%. Seems awfully fast and not what others are able to run at. Was hoping I could run it slower. Reading some other threads, it sounded like salt level could be a factor...

Just purchased a Hayward TriStar VS Pump and will be installing this weekend. I need to run high speed for a period of time for my Polaris cleaner. I also have a chlorinator. Everything is automated with time clocks. Curious how others run their pumps, assuming you're switching between high...

I currently have a Hayward OnCommand automation system. Single speed pump and auxiliary pump for polaris. Chlorine generator as well. OnCommand turns pump on and off via schedule. Also turns on polaris pump via auxiliary switch. They are interlocked to prevent polaris from coming on without...

This occurred 2-3 times last year, and once this year. Pool light is a standard type (Halogen I believe), located a few feet down under the diving board. Light operates fine, turns on and off. But on very warm days, when the pool water is very warm, the light will suddenly turn off. If I...

This isn't an every day thing, and has only happened twice that I know of. I noticed once that my pump was running but I had little to no flow in the pool. When I looked at the pump, I noticed that the SWG had a big slug of air inside (casing is clear). I turned off the pump, turned it back...

37,000 gallon gunite pool. Recently switched to salt water. Water is clear, but has a slight green haze that can be seen at night with light on. I don't have a good test kit yet, but testing with various strips and at the pool store. pH and alkalinity are good, and stabilizer is around 50...

Preparing to install my first SWG. Going with a CircuPool model. Installation instructions are limited in my opinion. From what I can tell, I want to hook up the SWG to the same circuit as my primary pump. This is through a Hayward OnCommand if that matters. Can I just "piggy back" off the...
