I have no power to my jandy control box. I've checked the breaker and it's good. I've checked the power from the breaker to the point at which it connects to the swg and it's good. So it's the circuit board or the power module. My unit has 2 small fuses which were blown when I started my...

Thanks guys! I'll keep an eye on my FC this week to see if the SWG adjustments work

First pool test after joining TFP 7/09/15 CYA- 40 TA- 100 FC- 4.5 PH- 7.5 Salt- 3620 After loading up CYA and salt a week ago 7/19/15 CYA- 70 TA- 80 FC - 3.5 PH - 7.2 Salt- 3930( Yeah my Jandy Aquapure SWG calls for 4000 optimum) CH- 225 Water has been looking better each day since last...

Thanks James

I have a Jandy Aquapure SWG and I'm just getting started with the TFP method. I've been keeping my salt at 3000-3500 ppm range according to the pool store tests. I referenced my manual and it said the optimum range is 4000 ppm so I was going to shoot for a range of 4200 ppm. Sounds really high...

Adding stabilizer to increase the CYA but unfortunately the CYA test seems to be the trickiest one to get an accurate reading. Never really considered the relationship between run time and output settings of the SWG until I read the article in Pool School. And it makes perfect sense. That may...

First real test Temp- 80 FC- 4.5 TA- 100 CYA- 40 PH- 7.5 Salt- 3620 Gonna run the numbers thru Pool Math

You'll find me bored and in the pool!

Hi all! I'm Joe and I am so glad to have found this site! I have zero experience with pools and I am looking forward to getting my TFP degree. I've had my pool since Sept 2014 and have depended on the guys at the local store to tell me what to do and when to it. No problems until last month...
