We enjoy the pool without heating at temperature between 71 and 75 without solar cover and I hear from friends that using the solar cover gets the water temperature above 80. I used the solar cover in septemper and it definitely helped to heat the pool 2-3 points during the day and stop the loss...

I live in Boston and have a gas pump. I will be honest with you, it's useless. Temperature drops in September very quickly taking the fun away and making it impractical to heat the pool. If you keep the pool warm and the temperature is low specially at night, you lose tons of water due to...

Nice, I have the pool open only three months a year here in Boston. Do you see any fractures? Could it be over-tightening that could have caused some fracture? I'd try to locate the leak and if I can find a fracture I would try to seal it with strong epoxy. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Before you tighten the clamps, does the upper half sits fully with no clearance on the lower half? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Where is the leak exactly? Any photos? Did the water freeze in it during the winter? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

This media cartridge shouldn't break, if there is a leak, then there is something minor that needs to be done correctly. Maybe new o-ring is needed. I have the same system since 2006 and it's fine. Most probably the filter cartridge is not sitting correctly preventing the upper half from coming...

I can't imagine rain or any other natural event raising TA to 300. This is like someone is intentionally pouring chemicals in the pool. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I am going to post something that won't be liked here :) I had almost a black very dark green pool when I opened the pool a month ago. I shocked the pool and even after three months of running the pump, filtering, cleaning the filter and shocking it stayed cloudy even it was blue. It crossed my...

Hi, any updates on this? I have the same issue with the original scc-25, even I replaced it with some generic one that worked only five months over two years and it's bad now. I need to buy something that will last some time. Did you buy something else? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

This one, not sure who makes them: Resilience A5, E5C | 40,000G Salt Cell Replacment Salt Pool Store Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

It seems all the scc-25 replacement are cheaply made. I found something online that says five years limited warranty, not sure if I can trust it or not, I have been spending money like crazy on this pool since I bought this house, lol. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Actually it had two years warranty. It broke after two months, got replaced and I used it for month and closed the pool, then used it for two more month last year and it broke in August but I didn't realize that until I opened the pool this year. The swimming season in Boston is very short...

Hi Mark I knew for sure today that the cell is gone. It's a waste of 300 dollars, worked for five months only. I read many complaints about the same issue, water coming out of the cell through the cable, lol. I am sorry for the confusion, but I'd like to know if anyone can advise for a good...

The water is flowing in the chlorinator with chlorine in it already, I can't leave the pool without chlorine, so I am constantly adding liquid or powder. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I have been struggling exactly the same way and I think I started to understand what is going on soon. My question for you is How do you know that your cell is generating chlorine? I had the Scc-25 and replaced it with this one: Resilence Salt Cell Compupool A5-E5C | Pool Supply 4 Less I am in...
