Okay.. Thanks!

It's working now! Thanks. The target range for my Free CL is 4 - 12. That's pretty broad. Can I set it at 5 and not have a range? I'd also like pump hours as opposed to SWG % as a default.

Uninstalling and reinstalling seems to fix the issue on my Android. On my Windows computer it tells me I don't have a subscription. I prefer to work on the computer.... much bigger screen. Thoughts?

Maybe the issue is me, I don't know. Pool math worked last year, but this year I can change a value, but not save it. It keeps reverting back to my last value 7 months ago. How can I save the new value?

I'm far from an expert, but the answer might just be in this video. I'd say if your water is bonded, so is the scupper. Watch what happens to Mike Holt swimming in water intentionally charged with 120V.

So many things to check before pool opening, but I'll feel MUCH safer afterwards.

This is a lot of knowledge in a very long video.

Exactly. At least I have the rest of the winter to plan and execute the additional safety measures... I never heard of the copper mesh..... looking now!

Agreed. I'm trying to figure out "why" some say to bury the loop between 12 and 24 inches outside the wall. In the event someone might be adjusting a solar cover from outside the pool standing on the ground, would it not be safer if the loop was 3 or 4 feet outside the pool wall so the person...

I just found this recent thread on Mike Holts Forum. It is my understanding that Mike Holt's Forum is a well respected source for electric information. I'm still curious as to why some bury a complete loop of copper. Q: Does the 4 point bonding described in 680.26(B)(2) apply to all vinyl lined...

Thanks Guys! I appreciate the help. I live in a very rural area. Wouldn't have it any other way. Permits are not required, and there is no residential inspector. (just perfect). That said, I always strive to do things right. I stumbled upon some of those old posts looking at other threads, and...

Well, it's not quite pool time here, so the best I can do is log on and read about them... LOL. So I haven't seen anything very recent about bonding the steel wall panel on an above ground pool. I see mostly the concept of running a #8 copper wire around the entire perimeter of the pool...

Good point... and easy enough to do. Thanks!

I will be using an automation with Samsung SmartThings. It can be included in the system I built to operate the 2 speed pump which is controlled by the Heat Pump. I guess the flow switch will be the "back-up". If the pump and SWG are controlled by the same relay, is there really a need for the...
