I recently installed a Pentair IC 60 SWG this year and am loving it. Obviously I am going to have to soon think about winterization and was wondering what other users were putting in place of the cell for the winter months. I plan on removing the cell and storing it inside for the winter but...

Hi Everyone !!! I recently got a new Pentair IC60 installed on my pool and I am loving it. I just had a question for Pentair users regarding the cell status light. I noticed that my cell status light does not stay green and I noticed according to the chlorine manual that this means that the...

Well next week I officially enter the SWG universe and I am pretty excited. No more lugging bottles of bleach around or frequent trips to the store to find the best deal. I know I will keep some on hand for the occasional SLAM. I got my pool opened this week and thanks to TFP had crystal...

Hey TFP !!!! After many years of the BBB I have finally decided to make the switch over to a SWG this season. I pulled the trigger on a Pentair IC 60. The pool store I bought it from was adamant that I didn't need anything that big and tried to sell me on the IC 40. I said NO...give me the IC...

Well after several years on the TFP method I have decided that it is time to make the jump to a SWG. I have done a ton of research and am just confused on the right system for me. I have a 29,000 gallon in ground pool. My local pool company sells and installs the Hayward system and is trying...

I just have a quick question when doing a FAS/DPD chlorine test and using the 10 ML sample for testing. Do I still use one scoop or two scoop of the FAS/DPD powder? I understand that I use one drop and take that reading as opposed to dividing by two with the 25 ML sample. Thanks in advance :)

I love this site !!!!! I have been using the BBB method on my pool for about 4 years now and it has made pool maintenance so much easier. I watched my neighbors open their pools this year to green swamps. Granted it can be tiresome to make those trips to the store for my weekly bleach supply...

I have been killing myself lately with my pool. I found TFP and started using the BBB back in July. I only wish I would have found this place so much sooner. I have been a pool owners for 2 years after purchasing a home with an existing pool. I was so new to pool care and totally trusted the...

Hey All... I have been doing a lot of research on your site and have found a ton of great information. I am having a problem with my pool and I am getting extremely frustrated. For some reason my pool will not hold chlorine. Even after following some of the steps in the BBB I think I am...
