    Dead IC40

    31 vac at J8 and J9. 12 amp/SCG RED brkr throws when I attach red wire to J9. No green light at surge card. Nothing at cell. What might that tell me?

    Problem with Pentair IC40 SWG

    I'm having the same issue. Exact same. Reviewing my query on this exact same thing omw to attack it with a voltmeter. Comment added to stay in this loop, and York you can do all of this yourself with help from TFP. You might even find you know as much, or more than the tech what's dropped in...

    IC40 full strength

    I have an IC40 that seems to only operate at 100%. Even when output is adjusted it continues to produce the most chlorine possible. As a result the salt is running out quickly as well. Any ideas on how to handle this? It is controlled by an easytouch.

    PB4- 60 old style/2011 vs new style

    I'm repairing a polaris booster pump and curious if the o ring for the volute is the same for both new and old models. I believe the volute is part # P5.

    Or instead of a direct response get referrals to 3 other tutorials that might explain what you're looking for.

    Algaecide

    If I wanted a preventative algacide, what might you recommend? There are pools I care for that have some degree of volatility where one would help. What do you use to treat an algal bloom? Mustard? Green? BLACK!? As stated I need to veer away from metal based products.

    Sequestering agents

    I've run into a big problem with copper algacide and its opened up my eyes. I don't want to stain and add unwanted metals to my pools. I don't want algae either. What is an effective algacide that doesn't have problematic metals? I've relied on pool rx and swimtrine for most of my successful...

    Dead IC40

    The board with the green light there, is that the surge board? The green light doesn't come on in the one I'm describing. I'll run the mentioned tests and see. Thx a ton

    Dead IC40

    I have an IC40 with no lights active on the cell itself. I saw the 12 amp fuse/low voltage breaker was tripped, and thought replacing it would remedy the issue but it hasn't. I've seen vids that indicate the salt board could be the problem, other input claims the entire cell is bad. What...

    Sequestering agents

    It was introduced most recently by me but prior to by parties unknown and became an issue agn with me. I was under the impression sequest removed them. What do you recommend in place of copper algacide/pool rx? Culator has reduced the green tint. You're saying the water must be replaced?

    Sequestering agents

    Looking for advice on the better sequest products. I'm contending with some staining issues and input is valued. Copper is a big one but are some better than others?
