Thank you! There are currently no tabs in the chlorinator… The ones that the pool company put in have been used up. I went ahead and turned the chlorinator off completely. I’ll have them stop refilling it. I have these two test kits, but I’ve never used them. Thus far I have just relied on the...

Greetings! I’m a relative newbie when it comes to pools… We finished ours up in the fall last year… Very long story short, our pool builder died just after we shot the gunite… I GC’d it from that point forward. Learned some things along the way, but still have a lot to go. We started it up with...

Jim, the pump address was the issue… both were setup with “1” as the address. I changed the waterfall pump to “2”, then reset the system and that resolved the communication error. WOOHOO!! Thank you! Regarding my pool builder… It's a long story, but he passed away just after we shot the...
