I see where the IntelliFlo VS - 011018 - Discontinued. I don’t see a replacement listed. I need a control panel. What would work? Thanks much. Tenna

UPDATE: The pump ran until 9:00 a.m. this morning (24 hrs after it went into Quick Clean mode) then shut itself off. Display has no lights and buttons do not work. Repair guy came buy and said he’d “start” by replacing the control panel. The pump is probably 15 years old. I’m inclined to...

I’ve read Taylor technologies Cyanuric Acid can be used for stabilizer. Does anyone know if it can? Thanks much! Tenna

Had a new liner installed, again. Fourth in 6 years but who’s counting. I use the app to find what chemicals to use in what amounts. I can’t remember if I focus solely on slamming with chlorine or do I adjust for CYA and alkalinity as well? Screenshot of test and slam amount attached...

Early in March I turned the solar on so my granddaughter could swim over the weekend. I forgot to remove the solar cover and turn the solar system off before leaving for 10+ days. Upon returning we had storms and high winds for 2 days. The pool was covered with algae. I thought it was just...

Multiport valve leaking on top. No water coming out of returns. PSI running at 28-30. Used to run between 18-22. Changed entire top valve. Guy at store said no glue or lube is needed it’s already on the new one. Water leaking at seam of new one. Also, should the pump not run for 24 hours...

I’ve spent about an hour online looking for a backwash hose reel for 2” - 100 ft hose and can’t find one. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Where can I purchase liquid stabilizer? This is the first year My cya is low. Usually it’s high and I’m having to drain and refill. We tried the dry granular type and it’s a pain. I’ve tried dissolving it first but it takes forever and we still have to brush the pool for hours to get it to...

I haven’t changed or questioned the settings our pool maintenance tech had set prior to taking over the maintenance myself. He told me the setting is the direction the handle is in, not the arrow. Didn’t make sense to me then and doesn’t now. This is a photo of how it’s been set for the...

I manually stopped my pump using stop/start button to change a speed. I can’t figure out how to get it to run schedule again. I’m having to turn it off and on manually. What am I doing wrong? Thanks much, Tenna

We have been reluctant to use the Polaris because the bottom of our pool is not totally flat. The men who installed the new liner last year put some type of pad underneath the deep end because they had to repair a cave in and didn’t patch it very smoothly. Do you think it would be safe to use...

My CYA levels have increased to 80. I assume it’s due to using pucks instead of liquid chlorine. Is there a formula available to figure out how much water I need to drain and replace to reduce the CYA? Thanks much! Tenna

Hi All, I’ve read several articles and posts regarding setting a schedule for a VSP. I understand I will need to make adjustments but would like someone to give me a startup schedule to work with. I do not use the chlorinator and only use solar heat when necessary. I live in the Panhandle...

We are getting a new liner. Every day this week a new well point has been dug. We are at 8. I have to pay for each one. Our pool is 16x38. How many should we need? Thanks!

Should I use the chlorinator next to my pump, pour liquid into the pool or use a floating chlorine dispenser? Sooooo many decisions..... Thanks for all the help! Tenna

We need a new liner. The contractor who installed the pool can’t locate the well points and didn’t document them at install. The former owners don’t have a clue. We’ve walked the property and haven’t found any pipes. Any idea how I might locate them? Thanks!

How long should I wait to vacuum my pool after adding muriatic acid or other chemicals? Thanks much! Tenna

Are there instructions on how to use the Pool Math app somewhere? I opened a new log and entered my test results but they didn’t stay in there. So I opened the summary and entered everything and the info wasn’t retained there either. So, I’m looking for step by step instructions. Thanks...
