Thank you all! I'm honestly a little lost with the performance curve data. I do appreciate the automation controller excerpt, verifies my assumption that I can just use the Omni automation for on/off and scheduling. Since the weather has really cooled off here in North Carolina i've turned down...

Hello, I have a Hayward Tristar XE (Model: SP3215X20XE) and an Omnilogic controller. Pool builder set it up as a single speed pump within the configuration wizard on the Omni, but it looks like pump is a VSP. I'm currently operating the pump 12 hours daily based on the schedule within the...

Agree, but I used my last gallon before I left. Last night 1 gal incresead FC from 0-7 so I anticipate the same result today. I'm really banking on the stabilizer I added earlier kicking in. I will have the pool sitter predilute the call hypo. This is a drawback of having the PB finish weeks...

Wow, half life under an hour!! I'm really disappointed with the PB not giving me much guidance around startup chems. Basically they told me to add 3 gallons of MA on startup, monitor PH, and add a cap of cal hypo on day 3. Not a single mention of TA, CH, or CYA all of which I'm balancing on...

Hello All, I've had a few posts, but this one will be specific to my new pool (just filled Saturday 6/10/23) losing FC. I've been using my Taylor test kit religiously over the past few days getting my PH, TA, and CH inline with NPC startup guidelines. Now on to the new issue I'm currently...

Thanks - PB says they'll take care of the staining in a few weeks after initial startup. Lucky enough they mentioned just having to drain the spa to remediate. On a positive note, I'm getting my chems balanced but this new plaster is going through a ton of muriatic acid. Today I begin adding...

I think I'm on the figure it out yourself startup plan. I've read enough on this site to get comfortable balancing the water. Currently on day 2 NPC startup guidelines. I've just about got the ph and ta within range so I'll be adding calcium this evening. My biggest concern is the spots on...

Hello, Just recently filled our pool and I'm noticing some discoloration patches in the spa beginning Sunday morning. Here's brief timeline of events: Friday - 5/9 Finished Plaster (Diamondbrite French Gray) Saturday Evening - Fill complete (Brushed 2x) Sunday - Pump Filter startup (PH >8.0 ...
