    Intex SF80110-2 Pump/Filter Timer Bypass

    so has no one tried the method on youtube which is for the intex SWG? from what i can tell, it is simply bypassing the sensor though. But they report chlorine is generated when power off or on. Concept may work. any updates on the pump? also looking to do this and have my own timer in use. Such...

    chlorine level question..lamotte <3ppm octo slide

    Fair enough. Thanks. I will keep testing and see how this kits fares. The cya has completely dissolved now and the sun is baking the pool. 81 degrees so far. I guess the real benefit of small pool size is quick warming! Ideally the fc will go down shortly... Or cya up. We did just swim in...

    Your saying the lamotte kit is not great? I read it was either that or the taylor for top spot. Came down to what's available

    thank you, surely the CYA cant be zero. the lamotte only tests to 20ppm minimum. tomorrow is a new day of testing. the water is clean and clear. all values aside from FC and CYA are within range. Dang my mind for having to ensure perfection in these scenarios.

    thank you, i have read them several times. not too informative though. is the relationship cellular in that the more CYA, the more FC is safe? kind of like the cya grabs on to the free chlorine or something? the other problem for me, was the CYA measurement with the Lamotte kit. instructions...

    chlorine level question..lamotte <3ppm octo slide

    Hey everyone, total newb here. I recently purchased the lamotte pm51 kit. My issue is that my new fill/swg/sand filter combo is showing high chlorine. Decided to buy an intex 650gallon easy set, swcg and 10" sand filter setup to practice on before deciding if I can manage a larger semi in...
