Got it. Thanks for the replys. Cheers, Rick

During pump start each morning, my pump starts at full speed for 2:00 minutes. During this startup, I believe that the high water flows causes some of the sand or small particulates in the filter to become suspended and pumped out the returns. The water coming out of the returns is slightly...

Great-thanks!

If run time and SWG % are equal, do higher pump speeds generate more FC than lower speeds? Sorry if this is answered else where. Thanks, Rick

Thanks, Rick

Just wondering if ~1" loss of water is reasonable over a week. Temps have been in the high 90's and the humidity "relatively" low. Should I do the bucket test or does this seem reasonable? Thanks, Rick

Thanks, Rick

I just got my test kit and was able to get some numbers of my own. They are: FC 11 CC 0.5 pH 7.2 TA 50 CYA 75 CH 40 Salt 3300 I just lowered the SWG generator to 60% and pump run time to 10 hr (I started at 70% and 12 hr). I was thinking of adding baking soda to help with TA and pH. I would...

Thanks for the advice!

Thank you! Are there instructions on here somewhere that talk about installing two SWGs? I apperciate your help and time in advance.
