Originally put in 20 years ago, just did a large renovation Ok... so that wasn't the culprit. The pool is 20 years old but we just did a large renovation. New liner, equipment, convert from chlorine to salt. Did fill out my signature, thanks for the reminder. Not really sure why the pH got...

I have been running my 2 hp pump 24/7 for the past 3 weeks since I am adding chemicals and what not. I've been meaning to set it on a schedule. I was a little reluctant to do so because I have no fail safe on the SWG right now besides the flow detector attached to it which I've heard isn't 100%...

Thanks for the reply. As I am doing some reading I am realizing that the SWG needs to know when the pump is running. The B&D pump I have is variable speed. It's default schedule has it running 18 hours in a day (8am to 2am) then taking a 6 hour break. The issue with the mechanical timer is when...

I am doing a pool renovation and am updating the electrical box I am going to remove the two timers in my box - don't really use them for anything. The new pump I got is a black and decker and has a controller attached to it. Don't really see the need for the timers in here.... thoughts? I...
