My understanding is the TCELL940 is an extended life T15 cell, so I assume I'd expect to be even further under 50% usage? There water has been visibly clear with CCs at zero mostly (0.5 the last couple of days), so no outbreak I'm aware of. The timer seems consistent, comes on around 8am...

We recently bought a house with a pool, and found out that the SWG wasn't working and FC was at zero when we moved in. After adding LC, we got the FC up to 5.5, quickly thereafter fixed the SWG, and things seemed stable for at least 5 days. Recently FC started creeping up, and I lowered the...

It appears you were entirely correct, thanks for the recommendation! PSI is now happier at 15

Wellllll.... that explains the flow not being detected. 🤣 I pulled the SWG and the missing piece wasn't lodged in there, so I'm assuming it worked it's way backwards to the filter somehow when the pump shut off? I'll be doing a deep filter clean in a day or two and we'll see.. SWG is...

Between guestimating the pool size, using pool math, and looking at the FC/CYA chart (for liquid, since SWG is busted), it looks like 1gal of 10% will likely get me at high end target, or a safe margin above that. My wife is going out there today, and while I don't think I can talk her into...

Thanks all for the suggestions! I ended up out at the house today for other reasons, so managed to get some tests done. Full disclosure, this was my first time testing, so I may have messed up, but I think I followed the directions right :) Here’s what I came up with: Chlorine Test...

Thanks for that call out! It was on my list to open it up at some point in the near future to look, but I had no reference for what "normal" pressure was for this unit.

Thanks for the info. Attached is the pump motor plate, and as far as I can tell its single speed. My TF-Pro Salt Test Kit just arrived today, so I'll be able to test everything this weekend and see where it's at. The pool and SWG are only a year old, so I'm hoping/assuming the SWG itself...

Hi All! I’ve been lurking around here for about 9 months while we were house shopping, learning along the way as we’ve not owned pools before but we were hoping to either put in a pool ourself, or buy a house with one. We’re finally done with the home buying gauntlet and ended up with an...
