Hi all - Salt water pool owner here. Need a kit that I can use even if I was blind drunk because im that much of a dummy. Thanks.

Im about to clean my Hayward DE filter and clean it. Once cleaned and put back together, does the pressure gauge automatically "reset"? Im assuming yes but would rather know for certain before I get myself into a mess. Thanks!

It was the same then.

We cleaned it about 4 wks ago. The company replaced 3 grids and cleaned the rest of them. The flow seems normal. Looking at this gauge, does it seem like i need to backwash it? From what im reading, you backwash when the black arrow gets close to the red?

I took the bag and walked around the exterior of the pool as my pool guy showed me and then brushed it to the deep end. I did not turn off the SWG when i added it. I do not have a salt water test kit. Coming in the next few days.

I havent opened the filter to check it. I dont know how to read the filter pressure gauge. I dont understand the 3 pressures it reads. Sorry, very new to this. Its a Pentair SWCG - I will add that to my signature. If there is a section on how to read the gauges, could you please point me in...

Hi guys - This morning i woke up and my salt light is bouncing between good and bad and my flow light is on red. I added 40lbs of salt yesterday afternoon. I emptied the skimmer basket which was full. What would be my next steps to clear this out. Thanks!!

I dont have any test kits. Guess i should get on that. I will order one and post the results. Thanks Texas

Hi guys - Thank you for doing what you do. You have been a huge resource for me! We have had some good rain lately and my pool is a little higher than normal. The water is cloudy to where i cant see the bottom and the jets dont seem as strong. Do i need to backwash some of the water out, put DE...

Thanks Marty! I will do just that!

Hi everyone,. I was given a Pool Rx Algaecide insert. My question is, where its still 50 - 60 degrees here in New England on most days, do i need to use it now or should I wait until it starts to get a little warmer? Thanks!
