There is a 0% chance that I would ever purchase from them again. What said about warranties may have some truth, but their behavior is inexcusable. Their integrity isn't worth the pixels their website is displayed with.

I don't recall the exact amount, but it was a bit below $400.

It is unfortunate that this company is able to openly operate with such shady practices. I am looking for a replacement because the Jacuzzi cells are nearly impossible to find. I am looking at Circupool because of the reported ease of DIY. Any recommendations on the model? Or should I look at a...

I wanted to share my experience with saltcellsupply.com to allow people to judge for themselves if they should enter into business with this company. Abbreviated Timeline: May 2023 - The cells of my Jacuzzi SWG started to fail, and finding a replacement was difficult at best. I came across...

You wouldn't even need a tub to test out the salt. You could just fill a bucket with chlorinated water and stick your arm in there. Add salt until you get a reaction, so you could see if it is a certain salt level that creates the effect. You could also test the different type of salt to see if...

Every pool stores motivation is to sell you products to maintain your pool. Stores that don't subscribe to this idea don't stay in business very long. And, it is important to note that pool stores and TFP method are rooted in different paradigms. Because of this, both the tests and actions...

You will require to complete the SLAM process, but as stated earlier, you will need a proper test kit to do it. I am new convert (almost one summer in), and with a little reading, you'll get your pool crystal in

I'm curious about her reasons for not wanting CYA. Can you expound?

Our salt level hovers around 4000 ppm, and while you can detect its in there, it is no big deal. Just don't taste the water, and it shouldn't be a big deal. :D

Yep, it was running all night, and during the time both samples were taken.

I did the OCLT last night. Started at FC 8.0 ppm and ended with 7.0 ppm. However, we had a thunderstorm roll through the area in wee hours of the morning with wind, blowing dust, and an hour's worth of rain. I would guess that even though this is on the border of acceptable parameters, I would...

Thanks, I have read that article before, and I have been using my built in aerator to help with lowering the TA. It has just been a slower process than normal. (Or, I have underestimated the size of my pool and am not putting enough acid in.)

I have been trying to drop TA, and I have successfully moved it from 150 down to where it is. About every other day, I lower the pH to 7.2. Should I lower it more than that each time?

With the CH of my pool (and fill water), I am having a hard time keeping the CSI there. Most recent test: FC: 6 pH: 7.6 TA: 100 CH: 600 CYA: 70 My CSI is 0.24 right now. I plan this evening to add some acid to drop it to 7.2 and to help lower TA. The addition of the acid will drop the CSI to...

Jimrhbe, Unfortunately, I have to go in there from time to time because I bought my salt cell from them, and I may need to have some warranty work done on my salt cell system. - - - Updated - - - They do, and I completely understand the profit motive. I was more curious about their claim...
