    To Wi-Fi or not

    After receiving a quote from Margaret in cleaners she thought the Prowler 920 or 930W would fit my needs. Just depended on if so wanted the carrier and Wi-Fi or not. I’m reasonably confidant so don’t have to have the carrier. Not for the price jump anyways. How important is the Wi-Fi...

    Animals in the pool.

    Pools been in since June. So far I’ve had one mouse swimming, one on the bottom and a baby mouse in the skimmer. Last night we were swimming and one of my girls said they could see feet in the skimmer. Took the top off and there was a young rabbit in there. 🤦‍♂️ Probably only in there a day...

    Chlorine comparator block

    Water quality question

    Had a water test tonight. Chlorine level is my fault. I had some some tabs that were about two years old, hissing the chlorine was ineffective. Put in a fresh stick. And yes, I’ve been schooled on the sticks and read all the articles. I bought a whole jug of them so I’m going to at least use...

    Variable speed pump program

    New pool and we got a Pentair SuperFlo VST pump. Our installer set it up at 1925 rpm and said to just let it run there 24/7. I’m thinking that defeats the purpose of having VS! So what would be the best program to run. We do have a heat pump and it shuts down due to low flow at about 1500...
