    Dead IC20?

    So I have an IC20, about 3 years old. Last year I had to replace the flow switch and all was fine after that. It's been fine until this week. We had a power outage, and when it powers up now, I get no LEDs in the row showing the percentage selected. Flow turns green, but then that's it. It's...

    IC20 low salt/high temp?

    I noticed the salt level my chlorine generator is reporting this year has been lower that what I measure with my Taylor test kit (I see 3400 vs 2900 reported by the chlorine generator). The pool temp has been pretty chilly, I think yesterday the chlorine generator was reporting 71 deg. Note all...

    Lower output for lower water temp?

    So over the course of the summer pool temp got up to around 87, and I was running our swcg at 60% and maintaining around 4-5ppm, my cya is a little low, at around 50. The last week or so the weather has been much cooler, so water temp has dropped to around 77. With the same settings, my chlorine...

I'm having trouble getting the chemistry under control (mainly pH). So first off, the CYA is 0...

    Newbie to pools and SWG

    We just opened our new pool (was filled in November, so no salt until now) and am curious about the recommended chemistry in the pool school info here for a SWG. The unit is a Pentair Intelichlor. Pentair has a table of recommended water chemistry in the manual that seems to differ alot in CYA...

    Light replacement?

    Our pool was plastered and and filled late last fall and immediately closed after plaster cure. As such, we never messed with anything in it since it wasn't useable and the builder still had work to do (he did all the brushing, etc). They opened it yesterday, so for the first time we started to...
