AFM is not Zeolite. I'm at Clapham near Lynton station. We get the gully winds as well down Windy Point.

I am very happy!

Thanks Newdude. This is my first pool and first post. I am not pushing AFM onto anyone but I'm excited by what I have done and wanted to share my experiences. I'm in the right place for that I hope? The water was not mismanaged I don't believe AT ANY point in 6 months and what you say makes...

WOW - didn't see that coming! I have given an honest appraisal of a product. And an accurate before and after. What's suspicious about sharing an experience?

Sand with AFM!

My cartridge filter pressure would spike considerably in two weeks without cleaning and it was tiresome. Tripling psi. It would be filthy dirty as well. The pool installers and Waterco know what they are doing better than I ever will with the size recommendation for the cart filter set up they...

I know four other people who converted from Sand to AFM and they are in awe with the results! Two work in the industry and sniff out snake oil for a living. I am not putting this out there for a challenge of opine or narrative or to plug AFM. But we all should know what amazing looks like when...

What brand and type of Chlorine are you using? Are you using the Spa immediately after dosing? I have a hot tub too in Australia. It was a lot and still trial and error in balancing 1000L of water at 38degrees C!! I have an Ozone system. I dose my Chlorine to just over 4ppm knowing it will...

Filter was plenty big enough - it had over 9.5sqm of coverage for a 39,000L pool. The other main issue with the cartridge filter was the surrounds we live in. Leaves, pollen, debris from trees. We have some pretty cool trees in Australia and they love flowering and dropping their leaves...

hi folks. I'm in Adelaide, Australia. We installed a pool 6 months ago. The installer talked me into a cartridge filter. Well 6 months later, that filter is OUT! Sick of cleaning it twice per week. We are surrounded by trees. Even with a skimmer sock, the pressure would bounce. The pump go to...

Check your PH. I have a daughter too who uses fake tan. I found the brown scum was caused by PH level too high - 8.0 plus plus. The brown scum caused by particles bonding. As soon as I got pH down to 7.4 and with some filtration for 24 hours, I was back in the clear.
