    Booster pump replacement or robot cleaner?

    Thank you for your reply, I did finally get ahold of them and sure enough they had my email address copied wrong. It did deliver, and I couldn't be happier with the Prowler 920. Paired with the Betta 2 skimmer, now all I do is empty the filter baskets! ;)

    Booster pump replacement or robot cleaner?

    Do you know someone at Marina's? Because within about 30-40 minutes of my question posted on here yesterday, I get an email stating they must've entered my email incorrectly, and they attached the purchase invoice and tracking info. ;) Either way thanks for the input!

    Booster pump replacement or robot cleaner?

    Thanks for the reply. I have called and emailed. It did take a couple days worth of calling to actually get through the first time. It is just puzzling I haven't even received an email affirming the order. I know they're slammed, and everyone in TFP says it's worth the wait. But still.... ;)

    Booster pump replacement or robot cleaner?

    So you ordered your cleaner on Tuesday and it arrived on Thursday? Did they send any sort of email with tracking info? Just wondering cuz they certainly took my phone order and payment info, but I haven't heard anything in 4 days--I also ordered the Prowler 920 which is in stock.

    I have gotten Pool Math now and entering the test results, and I will gladly share the logs--and I'm hoping in a month or so that these methods and materials provided on TFP will "SHOW ME THE MONEY" in savings. ;) Thanks for the replies and advice.

    Look, just give me your Venmo link and I'll just shoot you the $125/mo!! I mean, not really, but I'm not opposed to adding you to our Christmas Card list ;). Thank you for the replies, the links, the explanations. I've had time now to look over a few other threads on TFP, and realize I'm not the...

    Brand new to this, hoping for a gentle nudge in the right direction

    Thank you so much for the reply! I took a sample to my local store, and they ran it with the same results except they had TA at 25 and CH at 55. So here's my dilemma--at least I know my testing skills (and kit) are at least average, but since I didn't know exactly what to buy, how much, what...
