thanks !

My Prowler 930 died I purchased from Marina P&S and looking at another. Came across a website Poolbots which shows an authorized dealer. They have the Dolphin Sigma - 2 questions; 1. Anyone have exp. with the group at Poolbots for purchase or service ? 2. Anyone have exp. with the Dolphin Sigma...

yep, once the sun drops I will be adding it -

Yes. 2.5. Was it with the 5 drops. First time ever it was really more than 1 or 2 extra drops

yes, thanks - Any idea or issue with total chlorine being higher than free chlorine ? What is CC ? I do test and i used the wrong description. When i test i add in the drops / by 2 to get FC. Then add 5 drops of another agent swirl and most often either no change or 1 drop of i think the...

bags of cal hypo ?

thanks - I know also adding calcium chloride does to but looks like that is around 180 oz by weight or 144 Fl oz - Seems like a bunch at once so checking or is the cal hypo does it slow but also raises the chlorine

asking the best way to lift to 200 or 250 as you suggest

CYA is 30 - I know how to test FC with my kit and when I add back the regent is where I get the total C - normally I see no change or 1 drop of the 871 clears it back. Just took a little more so being that wondered how to impact the total . I know for the free I going to add about 36 oz of bleach

it does flow out of a outdoor faucet that is on the soft water line -

2 questions about test results 1. My calcium hardness is running around 125. How critical is it to get to 200 ? Best approach to getting it up if so ? I have been using the shock that has no CYA impact but does raise hardness and could over a couple weeks get this up by dropping a bag in 1-2...

thanks - learn something new -

Thanks. I think once again I was not clear - I should have been more focused in my question around flow rates to ensure the heater works properly when kicked on for the pool , or hot tub. Or flow rate to ensure the skimmer is drawing properly to clean properly

OK, so it is not the 1 hr. run time per 10 degrees in temp ? I do use liquid chlorine - I just thought you needed X flow to ensure like the heater is going to work properly if kicked on as example or X RPMs to ensure the side skimmer has the proper flow going in , etc.

Yes, I was looking for what that base speed would be to properly turn the water -
