How many Vitamin C should I use? Do I rub the spot or lay the sock on the spots? Thanks!

Hello, I have yellow discolored areas on my vinyl sure steps. I believe its from the water hose laying across the steps when filling pool. We have well water and the a yellow areas are in the middle of the first and second steps which is where I lay the water hose. Can I use Vitamin C tabs? If...

correct this is a new occurrence. just to clarify, I am not shutting off the pump just emptying the skimmer baskets (not the pump/filter basket). It not happening every time. Now I do know that I have a small leak in the the cell (the black ring to screw cell in) but I don’t think that would...

The last couple of days after cleaning skimmer baskets the pump losing prime and automatically starts priming. The pump primes no problem with no air bubbles. Skimmers seem to have good flow. Flaps don’t seem to be stuck. Good pressure from the returns. Skimmer lines are fully open, main drain...

Thanks Jim! Yes the green blinking light is for the cell. Should I shut it off until I can inspect for scale build up? Is it normal for the cell to go bad first season using the cell? Thanks again!

Do you have a video on how to remove the cell to inspect to see if there is scale built up?

Pool and equipment install last October. Pool was closed at the end of Oct. opened for the first time this May. So technically has been used for many total of 4 months. Is it typically for a cell to go bad that quick? Should I turn the cell off until we can inspect it or get it replaced?

We have a ic40 Pentair salt cell green light blinking. First time opening pool in May. FC levels has been steady at 5. But today it’s at 1.5. I am thinking the cell is not generated as well. It saids to inspect cell. I am not sure how to do that? Should I turn off cell until we can inspect it...

I think so just because my initial CYA test after a gallon of stabilizer did not completely disappear the black dot. It looked like the mid point of the test. That’s why I thought I would wait until this afternoon and retest to see if it’s changes. If not add another gallon.

I added the liquid Stabilizer around 4:30pm yesterday afternoon. Should I wait and retest this afternoon (24hrs) for it to take affect? Do you think that would make a difference in testing results?

I think I am going to move right into the SLAM. My PH is still at 7.8 so I will go get some muralists acid because the dry stuff isn’t working. My CYA appears to not be at the 30 mark yet so is it Okay to move to the SLAM? Can I keep the SWCG (80-%) running during the SLAM? With my AM FC at...

Ok the CYA end test looked like the Mid test so I assumed I am still at 20 then.

Gotcha on the SWCG does not consume salt and on being off when scheduled pump is off. How do I shut it completely off? So If I plan on scheduling the pump to be off I should probably do that at a time where I can manually shut the SWCG off.

Ok so should I wait until this PM and record the results to see if I lost any FC from this AM’s result? Or do I test tonight and then again in the morning AM to see if I lost any?
