I haven't been active on the forum since the pandemic. Yes- guilty as charged. The advice here has been so good, that I have managed without the need to seek any I suppose. Now I have a problem. I have a Zodiak MX6 pool vacuum. I attach it to the skimmer suction and it's been really...

I replaced my aging cell just two months ago. I got the replacement from the Salt Pool Guys. The scaling is so much that I don't think it's generating chlorine anymore. Even the old worn cell didn't scale this badly. I contacted the Salt Pool Guys and all they said was that the high pH maybe...

My CYA levels have been low or just within limits for months. This of course has a negative impact on my chlorine levels -lots of sunshine in the summer. I found Muriatic acid in Lowes & I used that a few days ago. It seems it's not the same as CYA... I tried to read my CYA level with the...

Two weeks ago, I took out my Haywood filter cartridge and hosed it down. It was due a clean as the the pressure had gone up to > 25%. I put it back in after the thorough wash. The water has become slightly cloudy since then. It also appears to have a tinge of green. I tested the chlorine...

<Low Amps: Cell? > I started seeing this message in the last few months. I'm guilty of not watching the pool closely as we've not been using it in the last few months. Eventually, I checked the SWG cell and there was a lot of limescale in it. I was able to get rid of most of the limescale...

The chlorine generator is clogged with limescale. I tried soaking it in mineral water hoping the carbonic acid would be gentle enough yet effective. I got lots of fizz, but there was still alot of limescale after I'd used three 500ml bottles. I then tried lemon juice and soaked it for several...

Pool math tells me I need to clean the filter. It was replaced 3 months ago and the pool people who did the job said it needs replacing every 6 months. Does it really need to be cleaned and if so, how do I clean it?

I have a Nano Digital SWG. It's been giving me an error message about low current /voltage. Also, my chlorine levels were falling drastically. I decided to inspect the cell to make sure there wasn't an excessive build up of limescale. Pulled the cable out and found it was burnt at the cell...

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum, but TFP comes very highly recommended. We moved into this home four months ago. The in-ground salt water pool rapidly turned green within a few weeks. Then we got a fantastic pool service to manage it for us. They cleaned it up in a couple of days...
