Yes, I planned to replace yearly. However, this line set only lasted 3 months since I installed it new. I will look into the looms. I was just curious as to how much improvement I could potentially get from protecting the line.

So my experiment this year with tank and Stenner pump has been positive thus far until the last couple of days. I came home from a trip out of town to find that the injection line had leaked and sprayed liq chlorine all over my equipment. It looks like the line had developed a pin hole. I cut...

What is a normal Daily FC loss level? I am located in Fort Worth, TX. Background: This year I installed a Stenner pump and liquid chlorine injection on my pool. The system works like a champ and my FC hold super steady. What I have noted is now moving into June I am already using ~ 2.8ppm...

Day 3 Update: FC: 5 ppm pH: 7.6 Time to turn up the pump time slightly. Not out of spec or low. It could be that I checked it later in the day today so my pool has had time to lose some chlorine after the injection adding time. I upped the injection to put in 1.5ppm, data collection...

Day 2 Update: FC: 6 ppm pH: 7.5 I have calculated that I am injecting 1 ppm daily at the current run time. I can turn up the times as the heat continues to rise and we get more sun. I am hoping my injection rate just matches the depletion rate and I can hold steady in the correct range.

Today was go live day on my Stenner pump and tank. Everything is installed and running. As Phase 1 I am just running a wifi timer to turn on and off the pump. Phase 2 I’ll wire in 110 to the aqua link relay and control from there. This gets me going for now. Since I was theoretical...

I understand and would never mix. Just hypothesizing with the current equipment without having to cut out PVC and or drill new holes.

I’m preparing to install my Stenner pump and tank and had a crazy idea for an using an existing port to put the injector. Can I use the port on the existing chlorine tab feeder and just have the liquid chlorine dump into where the tabs would be? I would just block off the water feed line and...

Here is my pad, plan is to put the tank just to the left of the filter.

At this point I’m committed because the money is already spent on the tank and pump. I like the simplicity of it and know it works. I’m not arguing that it is cheaper or better than a SWG . At this point I also don’t know how long we will be living here and don’t want to invest a lot. It...

I understand but have decided on the liquid chlorine . Last summer I did not need the volume you referenced in order to maintain. I don’t need to run the pump very long in my current configuration so I am counting on some energy savings over the SWG.

I am installing a tank and Stenner pump to automate my chlorine dosing. Have been using TFP for about a year now and just want to automate that portion. My question is what is the best option for putting liquid chlorine in the tank? The tank will be located outside with the pump/filter and...
