OK, my over night test was borderline 1-2 ppm cl loss. I tried bumping chlorine up to 8 and the pool didn't cear do I did a slam. I targeted 25-28ppm. The first day or two I was having to add a gallon or more daily to keep it above 20, the last 24 hours it has held at 26-27 and the water is...

Thanks for the quick relies. I'm doing the overnight test tonight. Assuming it's normal, then I should just bump up the Chlorine level in the 5-7 range and not slam. One more topic. Opinions on SWG runing daytime or night time? I run my pump at 1200 rpm about 18 hours a day and the SWG from...

I probably know the answer to this before I post. "Needs to be slammed" I'm having a problem with my water this year, other years also for that matter. I have the TF100 test kit. If the Cl level gets to 5 or below I get a cloudy water situation. Not green, just cloudy. I have a Jandy...

I wouldn't worry about that little of an over run just continue the process

well, I posted a response to this yesterday but apparently hit the wrong button. The new one I put in was giving me an error code the other day at 1200 rpm when it had worked fine for a few weeks at that rpm. It went away when I boosted it to 2500 rpm for cleaning. This time of year my pool...

I have huge oaks over my pool and suffer that same problem every spring, I've never been convinced it is algae or pollen. The solution for me is the same either way. After they are pretty much done with pollen, I run the cl level up to 25 or so until it clears then vacuum a lot. I'm in that...

I think I may be going with a Hammerhead cleaner that most of the pro guys use in our area. I found a good price on a new one. I'd like to throw a robot in and be done with it but for at least 4 months a year it couldn't handle what I deal with. Hopefully it will save me a lot of effort and time.

just wondering if anyone has any feedback on these units. My pool is in an impossible situation. It's located under four large Live Oaks and from March to mid may, I spend far too much time just to keep it looking dirty with a leaf rake and hand vacuume. A robotic cleaner is out of the...

easy enough to correct. just unscrew it and reverse the installation direction. Seem like the installation manual gave some explanation for this but I don't recall.

Well, I rolled the dice and bought the new style sensor, giving Jandy one last shot before changing systems. I also have an extra cell that was used a few seasons so I was hoping that the new sensor resurrects my system. That played a roll in the decision process. If it works out I should be...

can you get a view of the impeller on the pump and make sure there are no threads or debris wrapped around the shaft that would tax the motor and maybe blow the fuse. I know I had that issue at one point on an older model. Company told me to make a little hook out of wire and try to fish the...

I saw a stack of Ture Clears in Pinch a Penny today but no price on them.

If salt level is truely 5000, I believe that is too high for the Aquapure, I think that the limit is like 3800 if I recall

Thanks, I think the last time the sensor was working for me I was able to keep it happy at 1500 rpm on the pump. I'll need to decide, dump another $160 into the Jandy system that has had problems or put it towards a new brand and set up. I see Jandy has a brand new model now but they make me...

It's that time of year again in Fl to crank things up in the pool. My sensor on my Aquapure crapped out mid last year after less than a year and I've been just dumping pool chlorine in as needed since then. This time of year I usually switch to dumping chlorine in only because the pool is not...
