I'd fill the pool as much as I could to prevent potential hopper wall collapse or any damage to the pool bottom beneath the liner.

I know cjp71, I found it hard to beleive as well. It just didn't make sense that as quick as I was vacuuming it up it would come right back into the pool. do the overnight chlorine loss test and that will hopefully get you in the direction you need to go.

Check out my "what the what?" post on june 6th of this year. I agree whole heartedly with domct203, sounds like dead algae. I had the same puzzling issue...changed my spider gasket, then changed my laterals and sand (while I had the old stuff out, otherwise would not normally change sand), then...

During my recent search for a new VS pump i did look at the dual speeds as well. The Superpump model numbers ending in "S" have a manual switch on the back of the motor. If you go with the non-manual switch pump you will need, at a minimum, another analog timer. Or you could purchase something...

OK, I'll bite... Let me first start by saying this..."Happy Wife, Happy Life" :D. Now, the cost of the actual chlorination had nothing to do with my conversion to SWCG. It is ALL about the convenience for my wife when I am away. As stated earlier, I work away 6 months out of the year (14 days...

UPDATE: OK, I just placed my order for the Hayward Superpump SP2602VSP. It just made sense due to the ease of swapping it out. Thanks to AnAltruist and davidc18 for filling me in on their first hand experience. I purchased it on Amazon and did get the 3 year extended warranty as well as the...

What size pool, how many gallons? What size pump? I like my S244T, easy to operate. I have never been around a Jacuzzi filter.

Thanks for everyone's input and opinions. Last night I ordered the Hayward AQR15 from Amazon for $823, yep there's a deal going on right now. I will also be purchasing a VS Superpump to replace my new-old single speed Superpump. I could kick myself however, while I was sitting on the fence on...

Failed OCLT = SLAM?

I just replaced my pump motor 3 months ago so it would be painful to do again but still doable. Besides, I've always ran my pumps 10-12 hours a day unless shocking/slamming or freeze warnings then it runs 24 hours. That is why I am considering the RJ-60, higher output at a lower percentage...

So, It will definitely be a SWCG in my future. I'm now on the fence between the AQE15 and the MOAS, as JoyfulNoise once put it, the Circupool RJ-60. Everything I've read points to the proverbial "Go big or go home". Can anyone give me better insight into the Circupool? I have always been a fan...

Wow, read your thread on your install. Hard to argue with those numbers.

Thanks, I ran into a guy at work today who lives just north of Destin, Florida. Just so happens he is running a Liquidator so we had a great conversation. He pretty much explained the same as what you are saying. He works a 21 day on/21 day off rotation out here on a drillship in the Gulf...

Jblizzle what percentage are you running your SWCG at and what are you maintaining your FC at? Richard320, I am keeping the rainfall amounts in mind as you say because that is a valid point.That would be additional work/expense to add salt. I know some are going to say “Really?” but it’s valid...

laprjns how often do you top off or add liquid chlorine?
