Is there any way that TA and ph would drift upwards without adding baking soda or soda ash? Or would high values of these in my fill water be the main cause of this? I'm looking at the intelliph or intellichem because I believe i have several factors that contribute to my rising PH. First, I...

Hello all, I just have a couple questions. As I convert to a SWG this next week, I am wondering about how much salt to add. I have tested my water and it shows 1400ppm of salt already. I know this is from using bleach for my chlorine. Will this salt that's already in the pool work just as...

The question is just whether it's worth $600 more to get the intellichem to measure the ph or get the cheaper intelliph that just dispenses a constant % (like the swg setting)

I would prefer the SWG (using % setting) over the intellichem for chlorine. However, I am still thinking about using just the ph monitoring and dosing side of the intellichem.

Hello all, I often forget to add chemicals using the BBB method, so I end up with very large swings in my pool chemistry. I'm looking at making several upgrades to the pool to help me fix this. Obviously I understand that regular testing and additional maintenance will still be required to...

I was just at the pool store picking up some stabilizer and asked them about the intellichem. They told me not to waste money on it because the sensors are so unreliable. Anybody have experience with this? Also, I would be open to getting a system to automate chlorine and/or ph levels. Just...

My work schedule can be very crazy, sometimes taking me out of town for a few days at a time. I'd like to get a more automated system to control my pool chemicals so that they don't get too far out of whack. I already have an Intellitouch control system from pentair to turn the pumps and...

Yes the filtration pump is also for the infloor cleaner heads. i'll look into how much pressure i'll need for them. Yes I have a 2HP Whisperflo pump for filtration, another for just the spa jets, and a third for 4 waterfalls and 2 fountains.

I bought my house last year and it already had the pool installed with an intellitouch i9+3 system and whisperflo pumps from pentair for filtration and water features. I've been thinking about it for a while now and would like to get input from the forums about making a couple upgrades...
