    Time for cartridge replacement?

    I have cleaned the filters and put them back in at the end of 3 pool seasons. The first pool season in 2021 was only 4-6 weeeks since the pool was installed in early fall of ‘21. So the filters overwinter inside the plastic containment with bottom plug removed and gauge removed as well.

    Time for cartridge replacement?

    Should I be concerned about the end caps eroding? Filters were used for 2 seasons, pool was crystal clear all summer.

    I did read this thread, thank you as it did help me gain more understanding. Sad that manufacturers don’t really seem to care, especially when they have known issues.

    Found a SFS (Stack Flue Sensor) error on my control board. Being an electrician I checked the resistance (Fluke 1187) on the sensor with an outside air temp of 70 degrees F and found 2.8 kOhms. Through this forum I found out 2.8 kOhms didn't seem right as someone previously posted it should be...

    Will a Robot run under a pool cover?

    I have no problems running under the cover with the cord tucked under the corner of the cover where it meets the coping. If i could only solve the problem of it getting stuck on one of the drains periodically.

    We had the pool built last fall. The builder in the end seemed a little shady and was consistently hard to get answers from. I did all the electrical myself and the builder f'd me by not communicating the timeline of the build which created more work for me electrically (i.e. digging). It was my...

    First time owner of IG pool. Used 1 month in 2021, opened for the season Mothers Day weekend 2022. Still trying to sort through all the misinformation online and at the pool store. Figured for $8 TFP/year was worth a shot.
