I used this flex seal paste Amazon.com and it's been holding up for the last few months. I know it's not a permanent solution, but it will buy me some time before I need to bite the bullet and get a new housing.

Don't forget to include the cost of muriatic acid. Since I've switched to my SWG, I traded in my task of pouring chlorine for pouring in muriatic acid. Although I'm not having to pour quite as much muriatic acid as I did chlorine, nor as often.

I have the same cell and found my chlorine levels were lower than they used to be. I checked the CYA and sure enough it was low. I added stabilizer, and sure enough the chlorine levels were back to where they should be.

Mine is almost a year old and it still looks pretty good. I try not to leave it in the pool for multiple days and I hose it off after using it. When it's not in the pool, I sits in the caddy covered with the free cover I got with it on Polaris Days.

It's running great. I haven't bought chlorine in 8 months since it's been running. I do have to add acid every now and then, maybe once a month, maybe longer?? My routine used to be to check chemicals every day or every other day, but everything has been staying pretty constant, I only check...

I believe they are meant for either scenario. They have a scheduling option built in, which only makes sense if you keep it in the pool. I personally only put it in when I'm cleaning the pool, but tend to leave it in for a couple days before the weekend prior to when we are actually going to...

One thing I should probably say about it is that it does not clean my steps or the seat I have in the deep end. It gets to the top of each step/seat, but can't pull itself up to the flat part. Not a big deal, I just have to brush those myself before cleaning with the robot.

I honestly don't remember the price I paid. If you buy it during Polaris Day, it's most likely the lowest you're gonna find it.

Yep mine is still going strong. One of the best purchases I've made for my pool. Polaris days is your best bet, that's how I got mine.

Wow! I was wondering where Sea World was hiding their orcas.

Had our first swim of the season! Gotta love the solar heater and solar pool cover. Got the water up to 86 degrees last week. I love how clear this pool always is. Had family over and they were amazed how clear it was. The best part is I haven't poured any chemicals in my pool in months...

I've had my share of water leaks in the house and if I was you, I would definitely check with your home owners insurance to see if its covered. If it is, you will likely get a new kitchen for the price of your deductible. If the insurance does cover it but their adjuster tries to low-ball you...

Thanks! I've dropped my testing to about once a week in winter. Nothing has really been changing, CH and pH have been pretty constant. I'll ramp it back up when the temp increases though.

Since it's been pretty cool here in Socal for the winter, I've noticed the chlorine levels in my pool from my SWG being really high. I resorted to having the pump run less and the SWG on the lowest setting, but it's still super high. I ended up just shutting off the SWG and the chlorine level...
