Thank you. I'm thinking of putting the solar cover on during the 2 weeks .... less dirt in the pool but also not able to clean it either

I live in North NJ. I plan on leaving late June / early July for a few weeks on vacation. I have a 35,000 gallon, in-ground salt pool. I am wondering what to do about maintenance while I am away. I typically skim it everyday, check chemistry every few days, and run the robot every few days...

Wow. The chips went in almost easily ... your guide is right ... the legs had to be bent inwards slightly. And I need better eyes as well .... And the board works again! No more tripping the relay breaker! Woo Hoo! Thank you both so very much for the advice and the guide. Saved me a lot...

I bought a pack of 10 ..... they were cheap and shipping is free. Thanks! Should arrive tomorrow. I'll post an update. Cheers! Alan

Us too. Been out since Tuesday. We do have a generator so I ran an extension cord to the pool and am using the pool cover pump to keep the water moving. Good Luck! Alan

Thank you. I'll try a SLAM when power returns (I live in NJ). No visible signs of algae. Chlorine is pretty stable also. CC is around 0.5.

Hello. I have a 35,000 gallon pool and run the IC60. I had it set around 90% to keep chlorine levels at 3-4. I did a water check at Leslies .... holy smokes my phosphates were at 4,000! After removing the phosphates (used Swimables Phosphate Remover X) and cleaning the pool/filer/IC60, I can...

Thank you! Alan

My test CYA is 60 .... Leslie's test results are 54.
