    Calcium Nodules?

    I had something similar on my pool' but is was on the back of my spa spillover, right at the grout lines. From advise here, I was able to pretty much solve the problem by re-grouting all around and on top of my spill over. its only been 5 months, but have not seen any built up yet. Guess i have...

    Hard calcium built up in grout tile and grout seeping water

    so i checked the entire spillover and the tiles/grout in the spa and pool. I found 1 spot where the gout was gone between the mosaic tiles (probably never was there). I also noticed a couple areas where the small tiles were butt heading (almost no grout). Mostly atop of the spill over and corner...

    Hard calcium built up in grout tile and grout seeping water

    when the pool was re tiled, should they have put red guard behind these tiles on both sides or on the spill over ? could that have prevented the issue ?

    Hard calcium built up in grout tile and grout seeping water

    Hi. I have noticed hard calcium built up in 2-3 areas of my pool waterline tile grout. I keep on removing it but 4-5 month later it shows up again. This morning I drained the pool a couple inches below tiles (both sides pool and spa) and scraped the calcium off. I also thought it might be a...

    Protecting Stenner pump/tank from freeze

    Hi, Going thru my first winter with a SWCG & Stenner acid pump injection and was wondering if there is any special care needed for a hard freeze (or power loss during a freeze) . For the Stenner, should I go as far as disconnecting the tubing, emptying the tank (50% acid; 50% water); power off...

    Need help adjusting my SWCG

    OH Gosh. I guess I just need to get used to it. I think I micromanaged it too much when I used LC and have that same drive to do it with the SWCG, LOL. In all what I read above, I see the big point : better shoot on the high side to prevent the algea issue and prevent the slamming (with a...

    Need help adjusting my SWCG

    Thanks for the replies! ok on the cell life and testing (good idea, so used to do the 25ml) i get it, to have a strong FC, but the fact that it went from 3.2 to 5.2 in 1 day, doesn't that tell me that i need to drop the output a little ? in my mind if I leave it at 100% again for 11h, it may...
