ok thanks, I'll just start running the filter now then, appreciate the fast response

Hi- Water was crystal clear, but the PH looked low in the 6.8 range after a week of rain. I added 5 oz of soda ash yesterday (per calculator) by just sprinkling into the pool and not via the sock slow release method, and just let the filter run for 4 hours. Stats: 1800 Gal Intex FC: BT 5 and...

Getting started win Intex 1800 gal pool, added 50 lbs of salt and SWG threw error code 92 for too high a sat level. How much do I drain from the pool and refill? I did not think 50lbs would be too much. Thanks! Brian

Awesome thank you! It's not quite a swim weekend in the Northeast which is good, that will allow me to get it dialed in. So I assume I should begin running the SWG today/tonight? And I could use a quick understanding of which chemicals when out of balance are not good to swim in. I kind of...

ok thank you, I will add the CYA and check levels tomorrow If anyone has any other advice please let me know

ok thanks i added the 52 oz of bleach, and i will add the CYA as soon as I can figure out how to use the pool calculator and how much to add. Do I need to zero out all the other valaues except FC and CYA to get the correct valaues? When I entered 1800 gallons and a target of 3ppm, i ended up...

Ok thanks Adam, I like to hedge on the conservative side also and prevent any issues. So add the bleach and let the SWG run on boost mode or just let it run for a normal 3 or 4 hour cycle so it regulates the FC? Thanks! Brian

ok thanks for the responses So if I have this correct, don't add anything for about a week, and let the SWG do it's thing for 4 hours a day? Then test and add as necessary? Thanks!

Good morning- I am brand new to the pool world and the site, and have been doing a lot of reading and research, lots of great information here! I have an intex metal pool setup (12' by 30", approx 1800 gallons). I have the SWG and upgraded to a 2500 GPH intex filter pump (both maybe overkill...
