    Ahh ok - i'll probably do a run with the regular filters and then swap them out for the finer ones - thank you!! I paid $719 flat the s200 is the same price but I was going to have to wait a few weeks for that one to be in stock and they told me the active 20 is the same robot with different...

    Just ordered an Active 20 from Seth at Marina Question that i forgot to ask on the phone - I see people mentioning 2 different types of filters. Does the robot come with both or do i need to buy the fine material filter seperate?

    Marina won't pick up their phone. Can't get a hold of anyone.

    mind sharing the price and model you picked up?

    Is there an advantage to buying from marina rather than buying the triton ps from amazon? I need something quick and there are no dolphin dealers with in store stock around :(

    How to know if I have a dedicated vacuum line?

    Ok so my pool does not have a dedicated vac line - the lever on the equipment that appears to be for this is actually for a bottom drain that pulls from the deep end.

    Re: My green monster You'll have a lot of work ahead of you but it is oh so rewarding once you get towards the end and can actually see the bottom of your pool again... I had a pump motor issue after Hurricane Harvey last August and decided not to fix it right away - Finally fixed it 2 weeks...

    How to know if I have a dedicated vacuum line?

    Good morning, Bought my house a little while back and have always vacuumed from the skimmer, however, I recently had my pump motor replaced and the tech mentioned he thought my equipment looked like I had a dedicated vacuum line - is there an easy way to tell if this is true?

    Newbie Question - FC & CC

    My pool ended up turning to a pretty thick swamp before I got it to where it is so i'm guessing something is back there. I have not had any sun exposure during my OCLT attempts. My last OCLT was Saturday night to Sunday morning, but when that failed again I decided that maybe the issue was that...

    Newbie Question - FC & CC

    Sorry I went kind of dormant. I've updated my sig with everything I have. A bit of an update: When I went in to clean the filters 2 weekends ago, I realized the current filters had broken bands etc. - so I replaced them with what's outlined in my sig. My pool is 100% clear/clean. I am...

    That was a great game! Thanks for the info. Going to take out the filters this evening and give them a good cleaning. This weekend I plan to take the light out and see what may be growing behind it - the top screw is in, but it appears to be sliding off it's spot a bit and exposing a small...

    Thank you for your advice and words of encouragement. I already actually ordered more of the DPD powder and R-0871 reagent from TFTK to ensure I have plenty to finish out my SLAM with and I also picked up a ton of bleach from my local Walmart. When I started the SLAM, I didn't realize my...

    Newbie Question - FC & CC

    I recently purchased a home with an in ground gunite 10,000 gal chlorine pool. The pool was maintained using pucks prior to purchase and while I was able to keep it good and clean for several months, as soon as I went on vacation I came back to a green pool. I then neglected it for a week or so...
