    New SWG Install - Low FC

    Things are humming along now. I went on vacation for a week and came back to a FC of 12.5. I've dialed my SWG percentage down a bit and today I was down to FC of 9. Now I'm going to tackle the PH and TA next. I started airirate the water today and added enough MA to being the PH down. Water...

    New SWG Install - Low FC

    Well, you guys were dead on. I SLAM'd for 4 days. Was very diligent in keeping FC above 20ppm. Passed OCLT and my SWG has been keeping up running roughly 10hrs at 80%. I'm still running on the max range of FC at 10-11ppm just to make sure it was keeping up first. I turned the SWG down to...

    New SWG Install - Low FC

    Update. Been SLAMming all day. Kept FC above 20ppm for most of the day. Between 7:00AM and 12:00PM I lost about 15FC. Between 12:00PM and 5:00PM I lost about 10ppm. I got in the pool and scrubbed every inch of the liner and skimmer I could this afternoon. Found a few hideaway spots of...

    New SWG Install - Low FC

    So here was the approach I ended up taking. I went SLAM. I got my FC up to 28ppm at around 2:00PM yesterday. It dropped to about 21ppm by 6, added more LC and went to bed at 28.5ppm at 9:00PM. However, I also wanted to check my output. So I ran the cell at 100% from 9:00PM until 6:00AM...

    Tell me your thoughts and what's more important... I start slamming right now. Turn of SWG and SLAM today through Saturday and then do another OCLT Saturday night. I hate to be off on CYA and add more and then have to SLAM. Or Run a Chlorine rise test tonight sundown to sun up? If I'm...

    That's almost exactly how I did. Outside, back to sun and holding at waist. I'd squirter a little and then turn my head and glance back. But next time I'll be more attentive to the levels and fill to those and then glance.

    Here is the SWG while generating. Pulling about 4.5 amps.

    I've also thought about SLAM again just to make sure for I got all the Baquacil. I'm going on vacation in 2 weeks and if I don't have this resolved, it will put me back at 0. Maybe I'm on the cusp of algae somewhere but that still seems like a lot of FC loss in less than 6 hours?

    New SWG Install - Low FC

    I've got a 1.0HP Single Speed pump that is original to the pool (4th year). I addedthe SWG and pump to my profile. Plan for 2025 is a VS pump. I was planning on running a Chlorin rise test tonight. The pool has not been used, mainly because of weather, and is full because of recent rain...

    Also, Circupool just emailed me back and orientation does not matter.

    Sorry, forgot that. It is 2LBs per Day machine. I have it set at 75% and pump run of 12hours. So I should be getting 8FC for the day. It ran this morning for 5.5 hours and I lost 8ppm from the 9ppm I had at 6:30.
