I checked this morning and the cell version is H-15. I talked to Circupool customer support and that is the current/correct version for the Universal 55. They are going to send me some troubleshooting info and they were already harping on the potential presents of Phosphates as being the issue...

How do I check the cell version? Do you mean on the cell itself or inside the panel? I took the panel cover off but did not see anything that would indicate the cell type. There looks to be a small reset type button on the right side of the panel, but it is not labeled.

I went by my local pool store (pinch-a-penny) and got a water test done. Good news is that they aligned with everything I already knew, so no surprises there. Bad news I guess is that phosphates were at 1500ppb. Going to start researching phosphates now, never dealt with them before...

Yes, I am using the Taylor 1766. I did not have to add any salt when I installed the SWG as it was already at that level. I can certainly boost the salt, but it seems like a big gap between advertised production and actual for a measly 200ppm of Salt delta. The manual states the ideal level is...

I made the switch last weekend from liquid chlorine to SWG and am confused at the lack of results. I am still running tests, so this post may be premature, but hoping to get insight. I oversized the SWG considerably, Circupool Universal 55 for a 16,500 gallon pool. SWG should generate...

Based on the pump controller yes. In any event I am going to upsize the impeller when I get the replacement motor in and will report back if I notice any difference.

I did use the salt kit from inyo so it is the higher rated seal...I don’t recall exactly what lube I used to install the shaft seal if any at all. It was 9 months ago. I rewatched the Inyo install video just now and they didn’t use any so it is likely i didn‘t either.

Yes, my results were back to back comparisons between motors as well. I am just now seriously considering g impeller since the new motor is off again anyway.

that is what I don’t understand, with the new pump at full speed I expected the same flow at a minimum, but it is noticeably decreased at my spa returns.

Last year I replaced the motor on my Pentair WF-28 pump and replaced all seals. I took that motor off today and noticed some white residue on the bottom part of the motor behind the impeller and quite a bit on the underside of the motor as well causing the paint to peel. I looked back at my...
