    New SWG, Does not seem to produce at advertised rates

    I made the switch last weekend from liquid chlorine to SWG and am confused at the lack of results. I am still running tests, so this post may be premature, but hoping to get insight. I oversized the SWG considerably, Circupool Universal 55 for a 16,500 gallon pool. SWG should generate...

    Shaft seal leak or something else

    Last year I replaced the motor on my Pentair WF-28 pump and replaced all seals. I took that motor off today and noticed some white residue on the bottom part of the motor behind the impeller and quite a bit on the underside of the motor as well causing the paint to peel. I looked back at my...

    Water level drops at pump in spa mode

    When operating my pool in normal mode (suction from skimmers and return to pool) my 2HP Pentair pump has maybe 3 or 4 bubbles that linger at the top. If I move the 2-way valve to suction from the spa bottom drain and leave the return to the pool, more air bubbles are introduced into the pump...

    Another pool owner in Houston (shocker)

    Recently bought a house in west Houston with what I would consider a sport pool, spa, and some water features. Previous owner took care of the pool so I luckily did not inherit a green monster and would like to keep it that way. I have a TF-100 kit with speed stir on the way. I had a few...
