I am testing with a pH/salt probe from Amazon that is similar to the one sold by TFtestkits so I guess I'm not sure how accurate it really is compared to the salt cell sensor which says 3000ppm right now.Leave the mineral cartridge out.
How are you testing salt level? You stated you do not have a Taylor kit to test salt. Normally the AquaPure sensor is within 500ppm of the actual salt level (when using a Taylor test kit - my experience) - so to be off by 1000ppm tells me however you tested salt level may be off.
When you let all the smoke and sparks out of a motor you then buy a new motor, or a new pump.pop and smoke
It all depends on the spa jet experience you desire.You think a 3HP is needed for a spa? The gets are powered by an air pump.
You think a 3HP is needed for a spa? The gets are powered by an air pump.I want a 3 HP pump for the spa jets to have strong jet pressure.
I would go with two 3HP Intelliflo3 pumps.
