I live in central Fl and have a 10k gallon pool/spa. I have the Jandy iAqualink automation system. I am considering upgrading to SWG, but would like some guidance. It seems the obvious choice would be to get the TrueClear SWG, since it integrates, but is integration that important? I've read...

Thank you for the quick and detailed reply :). I had assumed that Pool Math made the adjustments, but I got concerned when I saw such a big difference in the test results. I guess it would be best to stop using the tablets for a while and stick with liquid chlorine so the CYA will dissipate...

Once a month I take a water sample to Leslie's to keep my pool warranty if effect. Today I noticed that the Leslie's test had my TA at 49 when I tested it at 70 just before going. They also tested my Ph at 7.9 when I tested at 7.6. I asked about the differences and he explained that there is...

I am one of those nuts who went all out and bought the Polaris Alpha iq+. This cleaner is a beast and does an awesome job. I also added the micro fine filter. It is amazing how much 'stuff' it gets up, even when we aren't using the pool. It has all the bells and whistles and I love how it...

We had our pool build completed last May just west of Orlando. We are south facing with a cage. We went with the 400k BTU NG heater as well. When we had the cold snap about 10 days ago our pool got down to 57. It is back up to 66 as of this morning. When we opened it in early May water...

I’m not having that issue. I clean out the filter each time I watched it climb walls today and it lifted out right to the top today.

Got my ultra-fine filter the other day and I am impressed with how well it cleans. I thought the fine filter was doing a great job, but the ultra-fine takes it to another level of clean.

Thank you guys!! I have the inline Chlorinator installed along with the Nature2 so I’m knocking it out of the park, lol. The tablets are stabilized and no doubt have raised my CYA. I do need to maintain levels for warranty purposes. I will go back and look at my contract to determine the...

As I am re-learning all of the water chemistry after years without a pool, I am happy to see all of the technology to assist with keeping track of tests and recommended amounts of the required agents to get water balanced. My question is this; If I use the Leslie's or Pinch a Penny app, or if I...

I ordered mine from PoolSupplyWorld for $44.08 and free shipping. There was one other company that was a bit cheaper, but they were out of stock. Leslie's had it for $73.

I have been using my Alpha iq+ for about 10 days and I am very happy with it so far. I am patiently waiting for my rebate and 'gifts' so I can try out the Blueriiot. After reading this thread I just ordered an ultra fine filter. When I asked if one were available at the pool store I was told...

Thank you!

Thank you for your reply. The pic shows it in spa mode.

Hello - brand new to the forum and have a new pool. I have a pool/spa combination with the spa 12" higher with a spillover. The pool installer set the valves up so that a portion of the return flows into the spa creating a waterfall effect. That part seems right. My question / concern is...
