Exactly what I wanted to hear...thank

So I’m told the MA bath takes some life from the titanium plates and is unnecessary if no scaling is obvious in the cell..the system averaged about 30% all season and I can see no cell scaling at all...so no bath, short bath or the full monte??? Secondly, do we remove the flow switch from the...

I’m running 35% for 8 hours....water is crystal..was just concerned about abrupt chlorine jump and solar cover will put temp at 90’ or more so that will stay off a few days

So here’s the numbers FC...9.5 CC...05 TC...9.5 PH...7.6 CYA..60 TA...180 Bor...35 Sal...swg avg..3200 K 1766....3800 Temp..87’ I’ve dropped the SWG output from 50% to 40 to 35 over last 2 weeks and yet the chlorine levels have steadily risen over the last 2 weeks and now the TA levels...

Is there a Li battery pack available for the older PBM??

Thank you Richard

Hey kids, so it’s been about a week with the new SWG and new liner..everything pretty much in order except for the CH...so how important is a CH level in a vinyl liner pool??? FC3.0 CC .5 TC3.5 PH 7.5 TA 90 CYA 60 Sal 3490 at SWG".......3800 w/k1766 **CH 80 **

I kinda inherited 3 bottles of the stuff from a neighbor and she had no clue what it was used for...was there when she bought the house...maybe I can pass it on

Hi kids, can anyone tell me what exactly is proteam daily treat..and what it is used for....description says it works in conjunction with proteam supreme and clarifies/enhances/protects/etc but what is it...no chemical description on the package....and is it useful at all in a salt water...

Hi kids, just installed new liner and new SWG...discussion at the local pool store while buying DE about using CYA..pool store says NOT to use stabilizer when using SWG...this goes against everything I’ve learned here ..no problems with chlorine usage over last 10 years ..seems to me I’d need...

Got it.thanks

So I’m adding liquid bleach to get the chlorine level up..making sure the salt level is up and all other chemistry is right THEN turn on the SWG????

Do I not turn on the SWG till I have a decent salt reading or install a bypass pipe instead...approx 3000ppm?? Initial salt added at 30lbs per 1000 gal?? Thanks tex

Hey kids, New liner( new water) and new SWG next month..I’ve been using the tf100 kit for years and am going to add the k1766 kit for salinity....do I continue all testing as usual, just adding the salt test to the process...and is there anything else needed for testing?? Got some salt dip...

Ok, going cheap on the solar cover...no sense spending more $ for the same 2 year lifespan....plus the lighter weight will make it easier to handle...thanx all
