Looks like I have my first instance of calcium scale. I had to SLAM the pool and have maintained high chlorine levels, so I haven’t been able to test PH. I just tested and my Alkalinity is 110, so likely the culprit here where it has a slow leak from my fountains. Best bet to do an...

Thanks, yeah this is a brand new cell that showed the correct diagnostics, I was just questioning whether it was really putting out chlorine or not.

Thanks! Did a gain test and put 100% on my salt cell overnight and FC went from 17 to 25, so I am in the clear with the salt cell working. I had around 1.5CC last night when I tested 17FC, so my SLAM maybe just wasn't finished. As always, thanks for the help.

Ok, I will run the gain test tonight. Diagnostics all looked good, around 88 degrees, -3200 salt, ~6Amps, and ~26V, but I will send the exact numbers tonight when I turn the cell back on. Everything on the controller appears to be working as expected, the FC loss just stumps me.

Hey all! Been a long time follower here and utilize all the resources, including Pool Math. My main question is: On a Hayward T-15 Salt Cell, all the numbers on the panel look good and readings are correct, but is there another physical way to test to see if the salt cell is producing...

Hey all - looking for some guidance as we get prepared for Hurricane Ian. Shame on me for being late here, but am trying to figure out an easy way to drain my pool. I do not have a spigot or any way to drain using the pump. The only method I can logically see is to use the drain plug on the...

Hey All! I am getting a new roof on Monday and having a solar company rip down my existing, 6 panel, west facing solar panels. These panels were approximately 300-400ft away from the pool pump. The technician just made a suggestion that for another ~$500, he would recommend adding 2 panels...

Yeah, lol I sell connectors and cables for a living, but Pentair used a custom shop and I can't tell the part number for the pins/housing. Might have to get him a sample of one of my companies sealed connector. I was just seeing if any one had a quick source of the existing solution. Thanks guys

Hey guys, My dad busted a pin on the IntelliFlo VS pump that connects to the solar panel. Any idea where we could purchase this cable? Or should we try to re-terminate the pin, even though I have no idea where to procure the pins themselves?
