    leak trough crack in pool dam wall and spillover opening?

    I only can scratch off the surface, calcification is visible deeper, I presume it fills the crack.

    leak trough crack in pool dam wall and spillover opening?

    I found a calcified crack on the dam between pool and adjacent spa, which is situated in the corner of the spillover opening and extends a few inches down on pool and spa gunite walls on each side, as shown on attached pics. I suspected loss of water last season and after winter I found that in...

    Weird SWG behavior

    I encounter a strange problem with my SWG in pool+spa configuration and Aqua Logic PS8 controller. First, I replaced dead T-cell-15 with a brand new Goldline Turbo, which started working fine in all combinations - pool only, spa only, and pool - spa spillover. I set 25% chlorination for pool, 3%...

    Pls help with interpretation

    It is a single speed WisperFlo pump, it does not seem to have its own flow sensor that communicates with AquaLogic. The Flow Switch is screwed in one of pipes and its orientation is correct, which is confirmed by closing and opening the switch depending on pump operation. Shorting wires does not...

    Pls help with interpretation

    Hi everyone, When filter pump is turned on, whether in Service mode or in normal operation mode, my AquaLogic system immediately lights up the yellow service light and shows message "No Flow-Filter Pump", which stays on as long as the pump is running. The system also shows Low Salt - I know...

    Any experience with this vendor/product?

    looking for T-cell replacement and found this from SaltPoolStore (saltpoolstore.com). It is about twice cheaper but with a longer warranty than Hayward's T Cell-15. Does anyone have comment on reliability of the product and/or the vendor? Platinum Edition Replacement Salt Cell for Hayward...

    SWG failure and high salinity

    I have retested salinity with K-1766 using dilution factors 2 and 3. The color conversion points were now achievable at 23 drops and 16 drops, respectively, which gives salinity of 9200 ppm and 9600 ppm, or 0.92% and 0.96%. Wow, that is like medical normal saline! So, I have to drain 3/4 of the...

    SWG failure and high salinity

    The data code is 5E0604-2074540. Wow, although the cell was with 5 yr warranty it is indeed 12 years old! Is it possible that the cell works that long? Goldline T Cell-15 TurboCell, I see it is available online, but maximum I can find now is 3 year warranty.

    SWG failure and high salinity

    Thanks a lot for useful info. I just purchased the house, so I inherited all previous owner's achievements. I try to get a second opinion on salinity level, may be from local pool service folks, but looks like I need to drain the pool and refill it to start fresh. It may be not only salt, the...

    SWG failure and high salinity

    My Aqua Logic system shows "salinity too low" (zero), so SWG (Goldline T-Cell 15) is obviously off. However, when I tried to test salinity with the K-1766 Tailor kit, salinity apparently was so high that after 30 drops I still could not reach the color change, which means it is higher than 6000...
