Well when I initially blew out my return the first time the red light did come back. But the next day it was green and has stayed green ever since. But my chlorine is very low right now, Pump is running 12hrs. at 100% output. Pool is crystal clear. I am going to get a water test done tomorrow...

Updated my signature and here is what I have. Leisure Pools - Rivera (16,000 gal.) Pentair System: IntelliChlor IC20, Clean & Clear Plus Filter, MasterTemp 250 Gas Heater, SuperFlow Pump Don't know of the top of my head the exact number but my filter PSI is at the same spot it has been for...

This is my 6th season with my IntelliChlor and it has worked great until this year. I have just run into a problem where the flow light goes red and the system stops generating chlorine (cell light not lite up). So to solve the issue I cleaned my cartridge filters, all baskets, and made sure...

I have had my pool open for a couple weeks now, water is clear and balanced. What I am finding though is that I have a perfume type smell from my water. Because I live in canada I use RV Antifreeze in my water lines when closing my pool for the winter. I suspect that this is the smell I am...

Alright. Let me know how you make out. I haven't ordered my product yet, still want to get some assurance from them that it will work before I spend money on it and find it doesn't do anything.

I just watched a useless youtube video where she said she found a product that worked for her. The product was EDFRED Shower Stall & Tile Cleaner. Not too expensive so might be worth to try a small bottle to see if it works.

Was that Defender from Leisure pools? this is a product that comes from the manufacturer of my pool. That's not to say they just took another product and slapped their label on it though. I know there is a product out there called 'Leisure Time Spa Defender' which is a different product.

Let me know how you make out. I was going to do the border tile as well but I noticed that the scaling is on the whole surface of the pool and not just along the water line. If the product I am going to get from leisure pool which is called 'defender' is not going to work then I think I may...

Ya those numbers were from 2 years ago. I got that undercontrol now. Just trying to figure out away to get the scaling off without having to drain and give an acid wash. Hoping that using the scaling product from Leisure Pools for this whole season will clear it up pretty good.

Not yet. I talked to Leisure Pools last year and they have a product that they think will help. I didn't have time to go full boar at it last year so this year I am going to buy enough product to last the whole summer and see what that does.

Slight adjustments didn't seem to work.

I haven't tried the muriatic acid yet, little worried that it my damage the gelcoat. Plus I would have to drain the whole pool to do this, so if I took that course of action I think I would have to do it when I close the pool. As for the gelcoat this is a fiberglass pool from Leisure Pools...

Ok, I will try and do some slight adjustments to see if I can stop the drip.

When I ordered this valve and installed it I was of the understanding that I could turn off all 3 openings in the valve. After I installed it I realized that the inlet can not be turned off (makes sense). The way my pump station is setup I have no way of draining the water out of my pool if it...

Last year when I closed my pool I noticed a white film on the walls and floors of my pool below the water line which I have to assume is scaling (see images below). My pool is going into it's 4th summer and I just started noticing this near the end of the season. It could have been there longer...

Tried rubbing the vitamin C. Don't know how it works but at the rate I was going it would have taken 3 bottles of the stuff to make a slight difference. So I have to assume if vC would have worked then it wouldn't have been this hard. What now?

Went and got some vitamin C and will try that when I get home from work. Any thoughts on the skimmer?

Hello Folks, We haven't swam in the pool for about a week and a half because the weather hasn't co-operated. But I took the cover off last night to clean the pool for my daughters birthday party this weekend and found some staining on my lights. One light has just a little, while the other one...

I have a fiberglass pool that has spa jets for the returns (hayward I believe). My pumping station is about 60 - 80 ft. from my pool. When the pump is running the spa jets draw air from a pipe that comes out of the ground at the pumping station. The return water works fine, but if I want the...

Here are my current numbers with the TF-100 test kit: 16,000 gal. Fiberglass pool Pump runs 12 hrs a day with the SWG at 60% FC - 4.5 CC - .5 TA - 100 CYA - 50 PH - 7.8 I can't seem to get my TA to lower. I have spa jets in my pool and they have been on just about everyday for the last 2-3...

Aha! I knew it had to be out there somewhere. Thanks X-Pert!

I live in Canada where we get a hard freeze in the winter so I drain below the returns. When I add my anti-freeze to the lines I like to blow both ways till I see a little bit come out each end, this just gives me confidence that I have the anti-freeze distributed throughout the whole line.

I was thinking that if you had this plug apparatus you could blow it from either end if you needed too.

I got the idea from the tool they used in this video, I searched the internet to find something like this but came up empty. [youtube:nxe6h8p9]AChsuNsUwMU[/youtube:nxe6h8p9]

Hello all, Was wondering if anyone knew how I could convert a winter plug so that it could be connected to an air compressor. I think this would be ideal to just put it in your line tighten it down and then connect the air compressor to it to blow out the line, just not sure of all the parts...

I don't have a proper test kit (new owner) yet so I took my water into the local store and this is what the sheet says I got back: FC - 6.6 TC - 9.9 CC - 3.3 pH - 7.9 Hardness - 270 Alkalinity (with stabilizer correction) - 117 CYA - 10 * Water is clear (need to vacuum though) I live in...

Hmmm......Not really the response I was expecting from this forum. If the questions are answered above where do you think I would possibly go wrong causing major damage?

Thought of another question, Do I remove the flap (not sure what it is called) that is just inside the opening of the skimmer? or leave it in? I like the idea of the pool noodle in the skimmers instead of the gizmo, how do I keep them from floating? would I put some cut up pieces into a mesh...

Hello all, (First Post WOOT! WOOT!) I am in Canada and i just had a new Riviera 34 by Leisure Pools (fiberglass) with a salt water system installed this summer. It is now time to close the pool and the local company wanted $275 to do this which I thought was crazy so I have a few questions...
