    Dolphin gummy and dissolving cable

    Yeah, I let it sit in the sun with the dolphin over one of my deck drains to let it and the cord dry out before I put it on the caddy with the cord looped up. It is stored in the shade.

    Dolphin gummy and dissolving cable

    I have an S300 named Wall-E that is about 18 months old. Only goes in the pool when I need to run it. The blue cable between Wall-E and power supply is constantly gummy and is starting to break down and dissolve into little blue bits. I just contacted Maytronics support about it. I have seen a...

    Highly Recommended Organizer- With a Caveat

    Couldn’t agree more with your review. I got one of these a few months ago and extremely happy with it. Yes the screws suck and what’s worse is they are recessed once you drive them in, so the cover can slide over them. It makes it difficult to find other screws that will work. It was worth the...

    Digital water testers

    I'm ordering Sutro tonight to test it out and sending the water guru back. It is too off in its FC measurements for me to trust it. Any updates on your experience?

    Digital water testers

    The WaterGuru unit uses a chemical pad and optical sensors to read it. The Sutro uses reagents. I’m playing with WaterGuru now, still within the 45 day return period. I’m not impressed. FC levels are consistently 1ppm below my Taylor tests, the flow sensor seems to be defective as I get as low...

    Do I SLAM after the Texas winter storm?

    Sorry! I am learning how to use the forum + pool math and wasn’t sure if it would just stick my latest log in my signature but looks it’s in my profile. My CYA was just a hair off the 30 on my Taylor kit, so around 32. It’s a new pool (1 month) and the builder put pucks in the chlorinator so I’m...

    Do I SLAM after the Texas winter storm?

    Hi all, restarting my pool after a hard freeze and pumps off for 6 days. No damage to the pool. House is another story... Bringing the water chemistry back into balance, my FC was 0.5 yesterday. Brought it up to 3.0 today. I didn’t test CC until today, it’s 1.0. PH has held pretty steady at 7.4...
