Hi friends, Looking for some insight from the experts. Opened the pool on 4/30, no issues since, Opening filter pressure at 10psi. I cleaned the filters with proteam filter magic (2 bottles diluted in water) right before opening. good water balance. Live in twin cities, right around this time we...

Noticed in the last few weeks chlorine production from the SWG has gone down significantly. I've been seeing error message 123, which I guess means "extremely low current to cell" according to the Jandy manual. I took it apart and give it a muriatic acid bath. I noticed that one of the parts...

Hi all, Having been having some issues with chlorine levels lately so thought I would reach out for thoughts/insights. Up until 2 weeks ago, we were enjoying a magnificent summer with the pool. the water chemistry was in perfect balance, I had the SWG dialed (have been running it at about 15%...

Dear friends, It was my first time running into this issue, so thought I would reach out to the experts. This is our second year with the pool. Opened the pool on May 3rd, water level was very low due to an unusally warm December and January (warm for Minnesota!) so had to add a bunch of city...

Have been following TFP guidelines most of the summer (made the mistake ONCE of going to the pool store, they gouged me for a couple hundred bucks, learned my lesson the hard way - never again!) and have been having a *phenomenal* summer with the...

Hi all, Trying to get dialed into balancing water and been doing a decent job (I think) but I noticed my FC is disappearing fairly quickly despite having the SWG set to 100% pump time. So, I thought I would post here and get your input! Here are some test results from consecutive days; attaching...

New home and pool owner! Everything has been working fine the past few weeks. Today I went to clean the pump filter basket, followed the usual routine, but for some reason I turned the valve that connects the pump to the filter drum off (hadn't done that before), and water flowed back through...

New pool owner here and having this website has been a blessing! Thanks to all who have responded to my previous posts. I have been reading some of the articles here on suggested water balance for SWG pools, specifically with regards to TA. I understand that TA in the 80-120 range is OK but in...

Hi all, new home and pool owner. Love this website, I come here all the time and can’t get enough! i have been playing with the water balance for the last week and seem to be in a good spot. However, whenever I test for combined chlorine using the Taylor K-2006 kit, I can’t seem to get the...
