    Huge problem with metals and stained steps and pool - Please feel free to comment!

    The SLAM has worked great on the pool. Took a little longer than planned due to running out of liquid bleach, and a short business trip. Still maybe just a little cloudy in the deep end, but not much. Just not crystal clear yet. Currently sitting at 13 ppm FC. Will do the overnight FC test...

    Hello from Edmond, OK

    I just found the two links at the bottom of the support page (one time donation and recurring), thanks! Totally missed those earlier. Got the eBook downloaded and am working through the ABC’s of Pool Water Chemistry. Good suggestions!

    Huge problem with metals and stained steps and pool - Please feel free to comment!

    I’m just coming off about 4 weeks of trying to get rid of metal in my pool. For some reason about 5 weeks ago, I think after a heavy rain, my steps almost overnight went from bright white to stained like an iced tea color. I’m sure you all know what I’m talking about. Anyway, the guys at Leslies...

    Hello from Edmond, OK

    Hello all - been following along for about 3 years now, but got my TFTestKit this weekend do and followed that up with a bronze donation. I would rather do $30-$50 a year ongoing, instead of the $100. But we’ll see, I may bump it up just for all the help this forum provides. Also hope maybe I...

    About to SLAM the pool for mustard Algae - help with chlorine

    Haven't slammed just yet. Leaving on Saturday morning for a 5 day trip and don't think I'll have enough time to finish. But there is a teenager who'll be present I may leave to finish up if I do go ahead and start tonight. Which I think I am because I don't want things to get worse. So I'm going...

    About to SLAM the pool for mustard Algae - help with chlorine

    Hello gang - looks like I've got mustard algae on my walls. First I've got to drain some of the pool to lower my CYA. CYA is currently over 100, and from reading some of the info on here I'm guessing it's gotten higher due to the chlorine pucks I'm using. Also wondering if the shock bags we use...

    Jandy JEP-R Variable-Speed Pump Digital Controller

    Wanted to follow up in case anyone else needed the info. The reason for my controller was what I would have imagined. If you look at the controller there are two arrows on the top right. After looking to try and find all kinds of ways the system could have been locking up I finally found where...

    Jandy JEP-R Variable-Speed Pump Digital Controller

    Thanks JamesW! Gotta head out for about an hour and then will give it a try. Also, the answer to the first question is that no, the keypad is not locked. It did lock on me once last night after I hit the up arrow just once. Not both at the same time for 5 seconds. I'll let you know how this goes.

    Jandy JEP-R Variable-Speed Pump Digital Controller

    I have a Jandy JEP-R Variable-Speed Pump Digital Controller attached to my Jandy Pro Series VS FloPro Variable Speed Pump HP1.65. Both installed around May/June 1016. The buttons on the controller do not seem to be working. When the pump is running and I go to push either the estar or #2 button...
