Completed setup with everything I posted above! Works great, just keep the power converter in a safe, dry space! I mounted it to a 2x6 to give it a little more weight, height and stability. I used solder and shrink wrap on open wire and waterproof quick disconnectors so the converter can be...

Okay, here is the potential plan, thanks to Deen at Hammerhead and a lot of over researching. You can buy the Hammerhead Resort 21 which is the same as the Service model, it just lacks the tailgate hitch, the best price I have seen is $1,620 + a deep cycle battery. On a residential setup, I...

I had a very collaborative conversation with Dean at Hammer Head. I will update shortly with overall costs, but I think it is going to work and might be a decent solution!

Thanks all! Chrissy, the Solar Breeze is very cool, but not sure how it will handle our big oak tree leaves, it would be great for grass clippings though! I'm thinking about starting with the Pool Skim as it's a fraction of the cost than the Hammer Head. I have a call into Hammer Head to...

Hey everyone, sorry if this is a commonly asked question, I searched but was unsuccessful in finding the answer. I have a large Bradford Pear tree next to the pool and it seems like the wind always blows in the perfect direction to send it and the entire neighborhoods leaves directly into my...

Thanks! Margaret was out, but her co worker recommended the Dolphin S300i. I will now over research that cleaner... haha

Ladies and Gentleman of TFP, what is the best cleaner for this pool? It is approximately 28k gallons, 41' L x 17'6" W (swimming area, not including ledges). The PB is recommending the Prowler 920. I have used Dolphin in the past and liked it, but that was a 2009 model, not sure of the newer...

Thank you all for your responses! Keith - I believe that they are doing 1 suction line in the deep end and individual return lines. Allen - I like the idea of adding an additional pressure line that can be replumbed at the pump for a future booster pump, if needed. Thanks! Bmoreswim - I love...

Ladies and Gentleman, I am seeking your experienced guidance on our new build. First, a little about me, I have been a pool owner for several years and our new home does not have a pool. When I sold the previous home, I said that I would NEVER have a pool again, knowing that I was lying to my...

I have the Circupool RJ45 as well and the salt reading is all over the place when compared to the Taylor salt test. The RJ says everywhere from 3500 to 5500 when the actual reading is around 3400. I have to say that I love this SWG though. I am running it on a 30 k pool in 100+ heat, 8 hours...

Sorry took a few tries to get the pictures to work.. I ran the compressor for 1 hour today and the PH moved from 7.0 to 7.2. I will run it for another hour tomorrow and update.

Okay, my PH and TA have been high as I said in a previous post. Today my PH was 7.8 and TA was 120. I added roughly 1 gallon of MA and waited a couple of hours to re-test. At re-test my PH was down to 7.0. Here is where the aeration begins. What you will need: 1 air compressor, 1 air hose, 1...

Thanks again for the advice. I am going to start with MA for now. To do the aeration should I use my air compressor with a blow off fitting?

Thanks for all the quick responses! I will read up on aeration. My fill water is very pool friendly so I don't think that is it. I will keep adding MA until it is down. Thanks again.

Hey y'all I am trying to figure out why my ph keeps going up. Usually every week my ph gets to 8+. I add MA and get it back down to +- 7.4 and up it goes again. The pool looks great and hasn't had any issues since I added the SWG about a month and a half ago. Pool is salt 30k gal with a...

Great! I hope mine goes well. My FC is at 4.5 so I better get to moving.

Just interested, I'm having a similar party this weekend, except the kids are adults and the popsicles are beer. How did your levels hold up? What did you do?
