    Water parameters when adding salt

    6.75 cents per gallon here. That's the cheap brand too. I just believe in the big picture I need a VS pump & run time 24/7 finding my rpm sweet spot then I can Cruze. I mean what's the point of a swg if your adding LC but it's also my 1st season so I dont want to jump the gun & I still have alot...

    Jandy FHPM 1.0 FloPro

    Ajw22 Would this pump be a direct swap out? Or what would you recommend for an easy swap. I may do it before the end of the season but no doubt next season I need a VS pump. Need to up my run time without my energy bill. I'm not hooked on Jandy but dont have any issues with the brand.

    Water parameters when adding salt

    Thanks already have it's a great app! That's how I know its undersized. I'm maintaining 3.5 to 4.5 just like mdragger88 had mentioned. Based on parameters of my setup I'd ideally need to have a 6ppm FC to abide by the TFP guidelines. I'm either going need to replace with a variable pump so I can...

    What kind of staining going on?

    Yes it's new as noted about 4 months now. Unfortunately the builder turned out to be a complete narcissist with major communication breakdown. I should avoid this man for the sake of my family if you follow me.

    What kind of staining going on?

    So the stains seem to come from the path of the fill water which was just a single garden hose over a couple days. It was very faint & over the 4 months its getting worse. I picked up a Jack's ID kit but nothing. I didnt reduce PH & FC as I should have so perhaps I need to try again. We have...

    Jandy FHPM 1.0 FloPro

    Appreciate that. I will look into that & get back to you. I can't justify an upgrade this early on as things are working. My SWG is actually hitting my minimum TC target & I can balance the return to run all features at once. Just wish I had known more about well everything before getting in so...

    Jandy FHPM 1.0 FloPro

    As a new pool owner I ran with the builders suggestions & that company turned out to be a disappointment. That said the actual crew doing all the work was amazing & I realize that's the heart n soul. I believe we got lucky on that major aspect. Just curious as to how this pump stacks up to other...

    Water parameters when adding salt

    Surprised by readings of 800k prior to adding salt. So I'll have a few extra bags on hand. Only added 11 bags to get to 3000k & about to get this party started. It's been figured I'll need to run my undersized SWG 24/7 @100% to maintain however thinking I should start off @ maybe 60% & follow...

    Water parameters when adding salt

    Great! The CH is actually 285. I have not updated my signature/parameters in several days now while I've been adjusting. Thank you Ajw22!

    Water parameters when adding salt

    -Plaster has been done for 90 days. -I am using Taylor test kit So sounds like the slow correcting TA & CH is not an issue - Is that correct?

    Water parameters when adding salt

    I am itching to get my SWG up & running. Since recently joining this community I have been working on my numbers. That said everything is moving in the right direction but taking it's time. TA is 100 CH is 285 As of lastnight. I have along with 22 bags of salt a bucket of Calcium Chloride &...

    Not an RJ60 but a Jandy Truclear. I am learning it would be nice if it was but I'm gonna work with what I've got. I'll just have to compensate with liquid chlorine or bleach to keep up with the TFP recommended levels. Thanks for heads up. I would have put it in the deep end no doubt😁

    Tabs or SWG

    So my FC dropped from 3.5 to 1.5 & lastnight *about 20 hours ago I added 2 gallons of bleach. My goal per the app was 6 & it tested 4. (Thoughts) Also I know bleach is supposed to be PH neutral but my PH went from 7.8 to 8. I read that gunite cures over the 1st year but I haven't seen that much...

    Alright - salt will be here Friday & been using liquid chlorine till the SWG is up & running!! I went with Diamond brand as I've heard good things also the only thing available was Clorox & Morton's which I've heard not to use especially the Clorox brand.

    I been playing around with the app. It's very helpful indeed! MDragger88 Is right on as the SWG is a Jandy Truclear & its listed as .92 getting 4.3ppm at 24hrs. Appreciate it & maybe this is not the place or thread to say it but I cant say enough about finding this forum. So much knowledge &...

    Tabs or SWG

    Very good information! At startup we did 24hrs run time for 30 days then 12hrs for the past 50 days. 24hrs seems like alot of run time considering I have been running pump for 12hrs. I'm not sure how that effects my energy bill but I assume a slight reduction. Is there a under sizing problem or...

    Yeah....didnt consider the freight cost factor as I'm geographically challenged & just used to online pricing for about everything. Locally is half the cost.

    Appreciate the comments & setting me on the right path. My #'s are as follows based on Taylor's K-2006C. FC - 3.5 TC - 0 PH - 7.8 TA - 110 CH - 200 CYA - 80 *I am trying to understand how to lower CYA & raise CH. *As far as the salt expense I was I needed around 25 bags for 25,750 gallons. The...

    New pool & setting on a 25lb bucket of "In the swim" 3" tabs. That said I have been asked when I'm adding salt as I have a Jandy true clear hooked up & on standby. I'm having a little fluctuation with FC for whatever reason but dont see the need to jump into the salt. It's gonna run about 8-9...

    Hello from Southeast Georgia

    Hello, We had a pool built this year & it's been running for about 3 months now. I've had a few questions, issues & found this group helpful multiple times (just searching the internet) therefore I figured it was time to join. - Culler
