    Weird "Freeze Protect" function on Jandy system

    First - Merry Christmas to all! This is a hard one to explain. We have a 24,000 gal. in-ground plaster pool, with SWG, heat pump/chiller and gas heater. All equipment is Jandy. To this end, we have 3 variable speed Jandy pumps (each are the Jandy ePump VSP 2.7 hp) - (1) the main filter pump...

    iAquaLink and AquaCal Heat Pump heat setting

    Hi, I have an iAquaLink 3.0 control system that is controlling an AquaCal heat pump. This setup lets me set the pool temp, and the iAquaLink will turn the heat pump on until the desired pool temp is reached. However, I don't want the heat pump running when the air temp is below 40 degrees...

    CSI v. pH - which is more important

    With the pool water down to 60 right now, my CSI less than -0.30 (plaster pool), but pH is 7.8. To get the CSI above -0.3, I would need to increase the pH to about 8.1, which is outside of the recommended range. So, what's more important - keeping pH below 8.0, or getting the CSI to above...

    CYA for SWG v. Liquid Chlorine

    Dumb question - why is recommended CYA higher for SWG than for liquid Cl2? Isn't it all the same Cl2, regardless of source? All SWG does is create the Cl2, compared to just pouring it in the pool. Just wondering.

    Problem with Jandy Aqualink Lights on Auto

    I have a new pool with Jandy Aqualink PDA (can control the pool features with the phone). Putting aside that the Web interface for Jandy is from 1970, I'm having a problem with the "Dusk Set Up" feature. In sum, I have the pool lights turn on at Dusk. But, what happens is that the separate...

    Water Level Sensor

    Does anyone know of a wi-fi enabled water level sensor? Not an automatic leveler - just a sensor. I have a water fill line attached and run via a Rachio WiFi hose timer, so I can turn the water fill on/off remotely. What is like is some type of water level sensor to notify me when the...

    What's more important - pH or CSI

    I have a plaster pool with a SWG. Based on Pool Math, it recommends an ideal pH of between 7.6-7.8, and recommended range of 7.2-8.0. Right now, I have a pH of 7.8 and CSI of -0.13, both of which are good (I know for a SWG, want to keep the CSI between -0.3 and 0.0). To get that CSI of -0.13...

    Problem keeping pH in check

    Hi - we have a new pool, with a NPT StoneScapes mini pebble finish. It has been opened for about 3 months now. I'm having a really hard time keeping the pH in check. I have to add about 1 quart of Muratic acid (31.45%) almost every day. I can get the pH down to 7.4-7.5 with that, but then the...
