Thanks for this - that is a good review! Seems I bought the worst robot possible :-) I tried it in multizone mode and in "standard" mode (both of which seem to be floors, walls, waterline but slightly different variations). In those modes, they ran for closer to 3 hours, with somewhat less...

Thanks! I will try Multizone mode.

I recently bought the Aquasense 2 Beatbot. May well return it as it just doesn't seem to ever get to all of my pool, even after multiple runs. The specs said 4 hour run time, but my cleaning history always says exactly 150 minutes after it finishes each run and that's in floor only mode. I...

Don't know if these will work with your automation, but I have 2 Pentair Colorvision bubblers on my sunshelf which is a part that is really the bubbler piece. You buy Pentair Globrite or Microbrite lights separately to install into the Colorvision part. They sell a version for vinyl/fiberglass...

My corded robot (Polaris 9550) cleans my whole pool - also 40K gallons - in 3 hours. Does your current robot take longer than that?

Looks effective! It doesn't seem to be pet safe from a very quick look at it, although I'm not sure. Do you know if the first rainfall would deactivate it? Or how long until you could let pets out in an area where you had used it?

Just a thought - given your space constraints and the drawings you showed, I would consider making the pool an "L" and having the sunshelf off to the right (looking at your first top down drawing) in the short end of the L . You might have to make the pool longer to keep the L 15 feet away from...

12 ounces is equal to 1 cup plus 4 ounces so it is saying the same thing

Just scroll to the bottom of this page and click on "Old PoolMath Webpage" and you can use that simple online version. No need to use the app if it's difficult for you.

If you were at 8.5 last night and added chlorine AFTER testing that number, then you lost all that chlorine overnight since you tested at 8.5 again this morning. That would be a fail on OCLT.

Thanks! Weather was perfect, and we had a great day!

Yesterday got ready for Memorial Day BBQ!
