Hey George - don't know about adding any chemicals but when we installed a solar cover our evaporation dropped a lot. I've only added water once this season and that was when I got lazy about putting the solar cover back on the pool! Our pool is used mainly on the weekends so, your milage may...

Ok. I understand reduced resistance. 2 years ago I re-plumbed all lines leading from the pool to the pump. Could not find our leak anywhere else so i rented a trencher and dug up the back yard and cut the concrete to the skimmers. I replaced all 90 deg elbows with 45's and saw an increase in...

This confuses my simple mind. How does this increase the flow rate (gpm) through the line? And if it does then it does. I'd really just like to understand this better. It is certainly counter intuitive to think that adding additional panels, with the same 4 gpm restrictions, will increase the...

With the pump and SWCG wired together in the ET4 controller the swcg will have power during backwashing. Will this damage it or will the SWCG not try to produce with no water flowing? As always - Thanks 44,000 gal. IG, Hayward Maxflo vs, Tagelus T60 sand filter, Taylor test kit 2006C, diy...

I've read many times where folks were advised to turn off the SWCG when slamming the pool. Why? Can this cause a problem with the SWCG or is it simply not needed? Thanks - 44,000 gal. IG, Hayward Maxflo vs, Tagelus T60 sand filter, Taylor test kit 2006C, diy solar panels for heating pool...

Hey all - happy to report that the IC60 is plumbed in and all connected. We are now generating Chlorine and everything appears to be working as advertised. Thanks again for all your help. 44,000 gal. IG, Hayward Maxflo vs, Tagelus T60 sand filter, Taylor test kit 2006C, diy solar panels for...

Thank you tstex. I can do that now and it works great. I turn the pump off during high rate hours and vary the speed using the programming I had set up on the pump during other times. I was reading through the ET4 manual and got to wondering. Thanks again for the help. 44,000 gal. IG...
