Agree with everyone else above! I run mine sort of middle of the road on tpf app suggestions. Currently running at 8.5ppm (was 8 last week) I test weekly now that I’m dialed in. One week start of summer the pool heated up quickly and lost 2-3ppm that week. So I always give myself a good...

gotcha! If there is no timer or automation then 24 hours is it! looks like if it has been at 10-11 all summer, then it is set to the right setting. A swg will maintain FC if it’s set correctly, it’ll increase FC if set too high, and you will loose FC if it’s set too low. Now that you’ve had it...

Do you plan on continuing a 24 hour run time? Or would you like to run the pump less? what was the FC prior to the FC going up? You stated it was running at 40% but was too high-how quickly did it drift up? (Example if it drifted up 1ppm per day-you know you can set it to create 1ppm less) I...

Hardware stores and Walmart are my go to stores for 10% liquid chlorine. Walmart brand is pool essentials near the garden center. Usually stored inside and fresh Julian codes so not highly degraded. ($3.65 a gallon) Home Depot/Lowe’s usually have 2 or three packs and vary whether stored inside...

You can add chlorine at any time of day-and during a SLAM should do so several times a day to ensure FC is never below the minimum level. The advantage of nightly additions is there is no breakdown of chlorine from UV. But you need chlorine to stay high in a SLAM even during the day-so add away...

Bump for more eyes!

We built our pool late last summer, and added a saltwater generator this February. Since then, I've battled pH and have been trying to avoid scale. While I don't have scale on the tiles yet, I am seeing this darkening of the grout in between our glass tiles. The dry grout is usually the lighter...

I use the daughter board with the omnihub and cannot see those readings using the app-just the average salt reading. I believe this to be a difference in the omnihub vs full OmniLogic. I can control on/off and percentage from the app-so that functionality works for my needs. not sure if that...

They are pretty common around here and no issues or liability waivers required. Love ours and our neighbors kick themselves for not adding it!

My UV is also connected directly to my pump-however it is flow controlled. So at lower pump speeds the UV system turns off. Mine has an indicator light when it on so it’s very easy to tell when the flow stops tripping the flow sensor. It’s happened to be around 28% pump speed. Perhaps just...

I also have the same errors. Thanks to TFP forums for at least letting me know it’s not just my system! I hope Hayward gets it resolved in short order.

All options are not listed on the cover of the touch pad. Using the omnihub installation manual, go to page 49 where it describes the quick edit feature. Follow through to edit to add chlorinator which is listed under "chemistry' on page 52. Quickly the steps are: Config wizard edit current...

Check the operations manual (rather than install) as it might have pics to walk you through. But.... you have to go into the configuration wizard using the touch screen and add the SWG on as a “chlorinator” option. Once I did that-it all worked beautifully. As an aside-myself and another...
