Whittle a potato and use that. That's richard320. Works well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

In guessing on algae because of the zero chlorine reading. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It has to be bumped because it is getting dirty. It's doing its job. How much had your pressure increased from clean to bump? DE filters do a great job but plug fast with algae. So it's doing its job but you have some algae to kill. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The de has to pass through the system to come out of a return. So I think what Chief has mentioned would result in de at the skimmer or suction. If The manifold is fine, perhaps the mesh on one of your grids is damaged? When the pump is off and fluid level falls in the filter canister, it...

Don't forget yer tighty whities [emoji12] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's the exact same filter I cleaned on a friends pool the other day. Can't remember the brand, cute little black r2d2 looking unit. Works very well in his rather dirty location. I was wondering how to acid clean such a beast. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A setup with a company like Aramex is very common with expats living abroad. It just gives you the ability to order and ship things that you may want/need from the US or UK hassle free. I don't mean that you may want an Aramex account just for a test kit, but for all the little things that you...

Very interesting Richard. In my hunt for high test ch I never considered the ag angle. Learn something new every day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We used Aramex in the ME for freight forwarding for years. Reasonable rates. I see there are 3 locations in Cyprus. Set up an account and get a U.S. and UK address. Then everything you want to buy is just a couple of mouse clicks away!! Ryan Edit: You will find bleach. But maybe not high...

Interested in this. A friend has one I just washed out. Was wondering how to get it clean. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Whenever you decide to do it, I suggest skip the backwash and tear the whole thing down. Clean completely and re-add the correct amount of DE. That filter will then outlast you. Now some sand filter guy is going to say "that's why I love my sand filter!!!" No tear down required. Then they...

Start basic. Is the hose or vacuum head plugged? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've watched them do Dolphins here a fair bit. I am quite surprised how easy it is for experienced tile guys. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Show off [emoji12]. I don't see where the outdoor speaker attaches to the case though???? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That might even be an imperial gallon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Came out of the house this morning and the back yard smelled like a chlorine factory. Thought "This is bad..." and jumped in the pool and everything seemed ok. Looked over the fence and two guys are dumping bags of stuff in the neighbor's pool. It's a quarter the size of mine and it looked like...

Is it circulating well to the pool? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I support this site because no you steers you wrong..... And because I pish myself laughing every time Dave stomps into a long discussion like an angry school principal and says "Slam It!!" Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am leaning towards fixed rate and two timers. My timer is 220 and I am interested in the 110 Stenner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Tim. Is tying the Stenner to the primary timer reasonably simple? I guess I was thinking that I would have the primary pump run for a bit after the Stenner shut down. But maybe not necessary. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The Stenner installation will be indoors. I will not be shipping a Stenner tank to Central America.

I'm leaning hard towards a Stenner for chlorine addition. I only have 5.25% bleach available so I have to do a fair bit of hauling. We also travel a fair bit. I would like to simplify this with automation. I have high power costs and soft stone in my pool so will not be going the SWG route. I...

I have some softer stone in my pool and high power rates. I think I'm going the Stenner route. If not for those two issues, I would likely go SWG. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I got the XL option and glad I did. Speedstir is excellent. I will be ordering an extra magnet or two for that. It really makes sampling consistent. I like the sample sizer idea as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Whether it's large enough to make a mid afternoon bbq snack? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Out of curiosity, did you follow the proper storage and handling instructions as outlined by the packaging and MSDS of the MA You were using? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No need to measure small volumes. Using an empty jug, measure volume increments into the jug. Mark the outside of the jug. Transfer marks to new jug. Estimate according to the mark while pouring. Minimize risk. If MA makes you uncomfortable don't use it. Period. Use dry acid. All that money...

Rynd96, Thanks for that. I am in the same situation as you; no one else will be in my pump room but me. So I am not very concerned about the mixing of chlorine type. I see the tie in to the 320 as an easy temporary fix. If I start re-plumbing my manifold it will turn into a big project that I...
