That is a cool option, thank you Marty. Unfortunately, it is out of stock, but I signed up for the waiting list.

That is what I am suspecting. If that is the case, does it make sense to get the same unit or should I go with a different brand?

I will have to take the whole cell out to get to the bottom. I will try to get to that tonight or tomorrow. Family is playing in it now.

It is running right now. I currently have the pool pump and SWG running from 6 am till about 6 pm. 12 hours. I just took the attached pictures. The Cell light is blinking. The Good light has not worked since I moved in in January. You are correct, I do not have automation.

Good afternoon. I am working on testing to see if my SWG is working properly or not. It has been cleaned, but not all of the LEDs are working (bought the home like this). The unit was installed in 2017 to my knowledge. So after SLAMing I got my FC back down to 8. It has been raining every...

A big Thank you to all of you on here and this awesome website. After learning about SLAM and working to keep my pool clean, I am happily maintaining my pool my way, not by a pool service or by the whim of a pool store, but my way. I really appreciate it and I wanted to say thank you to...

Agreed, I believe I should get my FC around 6 and get my CYA up to 75. Then I can adjust my pH and TA.

Good day to you! So I have completed my SLAM and I am in the process of waiting for the FC to come down. My question to you is, how soon can I start taking full readings to measure pH, TA, Calcium and CYA? Also what do I fix first? Salt, TA, pH, CYA? Thank you for your help.

Thanks Newdude. Mguzzy - I am not sure if it blocks UV, most likely not and I am not 100% sure I Would want to do that due to my wife's plants lol. But it is something to consider.

Thank you both. I will revisit this again when I am ready to get to aerating the pH up and TA adjustment. The only other aspect I am fighting is I am not sure if my SWG is at the end of it's life. I figure once I get back in range, I can test each day to see if it is adding or not correct?

SO I am now in day 3 of my first SLAM. Below are before and current. My target PPM is 20 and I have been dipping from 14 to 19 at various times throughout this process. Sand filter, pressure remaining steady at 25 PSI - backwashed just prior to starting this SLAM. CC is 0.5. I believe I can...
