    Huge relief! I was so happy to actually see the dye getting pulled in. Lol

    Fiberglass pool reclamation project

    Last Tuesday I leak-checked all the fittings, skimmer etc again like Zea described, with the pump off. Found no clear indication of a leak. I felt like I was doing it wrong because even the crack(prior to epoxy repair) had never shown a strong indication of suction. Then I pulled the light. The...

    Fiberglass pool reclamation project

    It’s going really well, easiest time I have ever had taking care of one, once I got swamp out of it. SWG is the way to go, I’m sold. The WiFi capability on the CS30 is awesome. I’m away at work right now but was able to check the salt level and ask my daughter to salt the pool today. I wish...

    Headed to get stabilizer now. Odd question, is there anything better than food dye to detect a leak?

    I already threw the cracked union away. It was off by a full flange side to side when I put it together the first time

    Who is using the Chlorsync CS30?

    Mine is still going strong and I love the PoolSync app. I know there is a fuse inside the power center. Hopefully it’s something that simple for you.

    Well that was close. FC loss was 1 ppm last night, .5 ppm registered for CC. FC is way higher than what you guys recommend but I was in a slight panic over the green. I knocked the CS30 output down to 5% at dark last night, the pump been running at 3200 rpm. Seems to have worked. I will be...

    It’s very low, below 25 I bet. I need to go get more. Need to fix the leaks so I don’t need so much makeup water.

    Wow. Can algae blooms occur in less than two hours?! I tried using water from the well today for makeup water, added about 4-5” in about an hour and a half. At one hour, there was no issue with clarity, no change that I could see. In between 60-90 minutes of fill time, this occurred. Seemed...

    Too late but thank you. 👍🏻 Everything was fine when I left it on while I added the 160 pounds. I think it was because it had pity on me for the stitches I needed after slicing my pinkie while stripping the wire for the subpanel that afternoon. Won’t be doing that again. Salting with SWG on or...

    FC was up 1 ppm for a total of 3 ppm FC after 7 hours of runtime at 25%. Bumped it up to 40% for the daylight hours until I can add some stabilizer. CYA is at 25 ppm due to the makeup water dilution. Huge differential between the TFTest results for salt vs what the CS30 is reporting. CS30...

    Who is using the Chlorsync CS30?

    Checked FC and I was up 1 ppm for a total 3 ppm after 7 hours of 25% output, raised it to 40% output for the daylight hours because I need to add some stabilizer.

    Best choice for hang-on type auto fill device?

    I had thought of that also. It may have more advantages than an auto-fill device. No chance for a pressurized hose to leak, no float mechanism to get stuck. A hose into the pool would be less obtrusive than the auto fill box. Cheaper and they have been making them for a looong time. You just...
