For the past few months I have thoroughly enjoyed my newly installed Pool Pilot SWG. But I am having one issue with it. Every so often, maybe once every couple weeks, the Pool Pilot control unit will lock up. Yes, literally lock up. All (vast majority) of the LEDs on the display will show...

Hello all, I've have a hot tub for a few years now, and I've had issues with water chemistry ever since. I've used this forum to learn TONS on pool care, now it's time to change to learning proper hot tub care. I really don't have the time for "daily" hot tub care. I'm looking for advice and...

Hello, What is the generally accepted best way of testing chlorine on a daily (or two) basis? I have the TF kit, which I love. The chlorine test portion of that kit is great and easy to use. Is that what most people use on on daily basis? In that kit is a sub-kit, believe a Taylor 1000 kit...

Ok folks, I've learned so much from you. It really has been exciting to worked on my wacked out pool mess that I've created over the past nine years, to something I can be proud of. Auto Pilot SWG installed and happy with it so far. Still very early. Using new AquaBot T2. I love that thing...

Quick question. Any concerns with using a robotic cleaner (Aquabot T2) in the pool while the pool is being shocked? I'm thinking no, just being sure. I had a Polaris 280 (great unit) in the past that had internal drive belts that would tend to deteriorate, I believe due to use in high...

Yes, me again. Thanks for all of the help. Just a very quick question. With my new Auto Pilot SWG, I have read there is a temperature where the unit is the most effective, and there is a temperature where the unit is totally ineffective. What should the water temperature on before turning...

Ok, I'm not sure if this thread in under the correct topic of not. If not, please move it. The Hot Tub thread didn't appear to get much activity. (Moved to the Hot tub/Spa area. JasonLion) My question, is there that much or any real difference between pool chemistry and hot tub chemistry...

Hello to all, I just started to open my pool for the summer, with a growing and hopefully better understanding of pool chemistry. But I do still need some guidance. On Saturday, I also installed, with the help of an electrician, my new Auto Pilot SWG. I did a water test with my new TF kit...

Hello to all, I just started up my pool pump on Saturday, and found that the pump was seized up. Basically producing a fairly loud hum, with the motor getting very hot. I de-installed the pump with the intention of getting it repaired or replaced. But after I had the motor off of the pump...

I will be installing my new AutoPilot soon. I was planning on how\where I am going to install the manifold. My system currently has a tablet chlorine inline feeder. With the possible future need of needing the tablets/pucks to add CYA, I've decided it would be a good idea to leave the chlorine...

Sorry, but I'm going to ramble for a moment about my situation. I'm making changes to my pool setup, and basically looking for comments and suggestions on what I'm doing. First of all, I don't have a new pool. I've had one for 8 or so years, and love it. My wife and daughter love it more...
