    What Affects ORP?

    Typically I would agree, but we sometimes aren't in a position to test chemicals for a couple weeks at a time in the summer. The onboard ORP control is terrible - it always overshoots and is late to respond. Every attempt at using it either resulted in too high of chlorine levels, or too low...

    What Affects ORP?

    That's fair - I don't expect anyone to be able to help with the computer science parts and I have read a lot of the ORP threads, but many of them either have a shortage of information and sometimes misinformation so I was hoping someone could give me a concise list based on testing they had done...

    What Affects ORP?

    I see we're back to not wanting to discuss new ideas or help people over here.

    What Affects ORP?

    I'll add I'm not going to let the Hayward panel adjust the Unfortunately it's not a LLM, so that doesn't work - it's a cluster wise regression model.

    What Affects ORP?

    I know in general ORP + SWG is not a great combination, but I have the Hayward sense and dispense system on my pool so I want to make it more meaningful. I've been told TC, FC, CYA, sunlight, etc all impact the readings, are there other things? Ultimately I'm planning to measure these factor...

    Pentair Intellichem Controllers

    Yea, I'll be honest on ORP - it's a pain in the @$$. I added a Hayward Sense and Dispense to my pool. The PH has been great, the ORP with SWG is not. My personal opinion there are two reasons for this: 1. ORP fluctuates drastically from AM to PM with the sunlight. 2. The SWG doesn't react...

    How is Maytronics with their Warranty

    Looks like there was water ingress where there wasn’t supposed to be in my E70. It’s still under warranty, should this be covered? If it is how long does it take to get the issue resolved?

    AQL-CHEM4 Confusion - Dilution

    Do you just let it run to the bottom then before you add more? Or does it get diluted enough that you can add more water to the tank later and then add another gallon to top it off?

    AQL-CHEM4 Confusion - Dilution

    Recommendations on how to do this without making an acidy mess? 5 gallon bucket and a funnel? Or is there a better way?

    AQL-CHEM4 Confusion - Dilution

    I just purchased the Hayward acid dispenser and am in the process of installing it, and I'm confused, it says Hayward recommends dilution rates of 1 gallon of Muriatic Acid to 3 gallons of water with Pools. Since 31.45% is roughly 1 part acid to 3 parts water does that mean I should just use...

    Get the same heater they said, it will line right up.

    Oh - thats how I was planning to do it mentally, exact same check valve in fact.
