    Ok I shut off the chlorinator so it'll come back down. I'm really confused how it got so high again.

    First test

    Ok since I can't actually test pH until my chlorine comes back down I've turned off my swcg again. I've asked my wife to pick up some pH up on the way home. I'll feel safer if I counter what I put in earlier until I can get a good reading.

    Ok I've just decide I'm trying to move to fast. I just realized my FC is back up above 10 again (13), so I'm panicking. I put in muriatic acid based on my pH being above 8 but now I'm wondering if it's actually above 8 since my FC is so high. I'm not sure why my FC is so high again. My swcg...

    I checked it before I went to bed and there wasn't much left in the skimmer. I expect it would have been gone this morning since I had the pump on high all night. I'll check pH when I get home tonight. Thanks for all the guidance.

    Well Crud, I guess I should have waited and read comments. I was in a hurry to get it added before I had to take my son to practice yesterday, so I added it all when I got home and didn't check back for comments until now. I added just shy of 4 lbs in a sock in the skimmer. If I...

    I figure I need another 4 pounds of stabilizer which should drop pH .8

    First test

    With regards to the pump, I had a code saying no water flow timeout flowsensor. I already called the installer. I checked for leaves in the pump and it had some. I also noticed small drips at the connection at the skimmer. So, I am not sure if it is pulling air in. It tripped the code at...

    So I was going to add some CYA, which I believe will also lower pH. I was thinking I should do that today, however, with the pump issue, I didn't want it to get another code and turn off while I had a bag of CYA in the skimmer. Should I hold off on CYA and add muriatic acid?

    Do Robots have "smart" navigation - does it work - better than vac cleaner?

    Welp, I just bought the active 20. Wish I could have bought that iO line.

    Is that not possible? Maybe I screwed something up yesterday. We've been getting a bunch of rain lately. Although I don't believe it rained today

    Do Robots have "smart" navigation - does it work - better than vac cleaner?

    I did a demo on the Dolphin 300i and to me it seemed to be a random pattern. However, I didn't sit out there and watch it the entire time. I am still trying to decide which one I want to buy.

    New pool valve automation help

    I am thinking I want a separate valve for each. I don't know about the pressure. I assume if I have the return going to the pool and the bubblers and have my pump on high, that it will still be enough power for the kids to play. You may be right that if I have the spa and the bubblers going...

    SETTING UP OMNILOGIC TO OPERATE PAL 2000 COLOR LOGIC DIGITAL LIGHT VARIATIONS?

    Anyone? I figured out there is an app for PAL which will allow you to change the color scheme. However, it is a pain in the butt, because you have to disconnect from your home wifi and connect to a PAL wifi. Then, in order to reconnect to the omnilogic, I have to connect back to my home wifi...

    New pool valve automation help

    I wasn't sure if I should put this here or in the getting started section. Hopefully I chose wisely. I had my pool installed by Leisure Pools. When speaking with them I was convinced to purchase the Hayward Omnilogic so everything would be automated. However now that it is setup, I am a...

    It's a fiberglass pool with a spa. Should I shut the swcg off completely now to allow it to drop faster?
