The spout definitely reduces spills, so if you are having to be careful it speeds things up. Empty 2.5 gal jug in less than a minute, maybe faster. Just got it so working on technique. Those jugs seem to have a dead spot where chlorine pools, so I have twist it around at the end several times...

I have Wemo in house also, but at your suggestion went with Wion outdoors. Works very well. I am looking at IDevices outdoor outlet compatible with Apple Homekit. Marketed by Amazon, so Alexa friendly. A bit more expensive, but if it gives notifications and is more versatile I may be...

Stenner up and running. I went with 45MPHP22 pump w/ Wion timer and 15 gal tank. Injecting 45 min. (~3/4 gal) in the evening. I tapped into 1-1/2” pvc with 1/4” nylon nipple and bushing to get back to 1/2” pvc valve. I also have LED puck light attached so I can keep an eye on timer from...

I have been taking care of my pool for several years, so no problem there. Been visiting this site off and on to get new ideas and research equipment. Decided to make it official and gain more access and interaction.
