its been running without issue for 24 hours now, and I have no idea why, so I'm just going to let it run until I have a plan in place. being without a pump for a week really got my water out of balance. so I'm hoping it continues to work until I have an idea what I should do, which sounds maybe...

if i remove the timer from the equation, i will have a wifi switch for the SWG. I am not concerned about this. I am aslo not sure what this has to do with the issue I had with the timer.

yes for the last 6 years they have both operated together, we leave the timer on all the time and cut power to both at the same time. sometimes we may turn off ONLY the SWG if we want to keep the pump running for some reason, or if we want it to run really really low, even at the lowest setting...

They are both on the same timer, however we never turn our pump off and manage the swg separately, the timer was in place with the older pump that was there before we put in the new VS pump.

yeah we basically just always leave it running and have taken out the red off. By some miracle after a few days of checking the electricity etc, I just left it on for an hour to see if I could tell if the time was at least advancing and everything started working after about 45 minutes. No...

Is it possible that maybe the SWG is just dead and the way its wired, is causing the pump to be dead, or vice versa? I was going to remove it to test, but when I look at the wiring, I dont know what I would do with the blue and yellow wires that go to it. This has been all hooked up this way...

So short version, i got a leak in some plumbing from filter to pvc, I ordered a new piece, it took a week to get here, I turned the timer/pump/swg off with my cutoff switch. When I got everything replaced, went to turn it on to test and nothing turns on. If I keep rotating the timer over and...

I moved into a place and have estimated the pool gallons to be about 12-13,000. But I could not get my salt level raised this year anywhere close to where it should be without mass amounts of salt. I'm finally at about 3400ppm. I added 200 lbs yesterday when I was at 2780ppm. Doesn't that...

I have the same device and I was having the same problem. Then I noticed my power light was flashing. This can mean a few things, one is the flow is too slow. I increased the rpm to try and make sure i was getting the required 30 gpm, which I felt I was well above. What I discovered, was I...

Long story short i had to cut the end off my plug so i could put a new cap on. Well that's all great now. However the sheaths came off the cable end of the plug, so i don't know the wire order. Hoping maybe some kind soul out there knows or can look on theirs? It will be difficult because...

Anyone have any suggestions for a broken sj series cap? Long story short was out of town for an extended period and it broke during winter. The cell is only a year and a half old for 20k gallon pool and using the 40 so really hate to drop 500 because the stupid plastic cap broke.... It's the...

Unfortunately the circupool sj40 has nothing of the sort. Will only flash if it's low. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

definitely will keep an eye on it, i think there's only 1.5 or 2.5 tabs left in the thing, so I dont suspect it will be a problem, especially since im on the lower end of 70.

So I thought for awhile I've had my water pretty well balanced, my pool's been sitting around 66-70, but the last week it's warmed up a bit now at about 76 when testing today. Salt ppm may have gone done and TA and CH maybe up, so wondering if these numbers look ok after a week of basically not...

That would be very good news. Thanks!

Sorry was unclear it's stuff on the surface of the water not the pool. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

how about this Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

I think my water balance is in pretty good shape, but I have 1 concern. My pool very often will have spots on the surface and its very hard to describe. It was hard to get a picture of it, but hopefully someone can provide some insight...I do have lots of trees, but It's not yellow pollen...

Well I think I'm in pretty good shape, ran my SWG for 3 hours today about 10-1 @ 50%, When I tested just now 3 hours later i'm at FC = 5 TA = 70 PH = 7.2 CH = 150 Salt = 3370 Thinking I should add a little more salt, and maybe a little bit of borax to creep the PH up a little, then in 2 days...

Is this the same stuff? Amazon.com : 96% Pure Calcium Chloride SNOW Garden

so I just tested the CH again and I'm still getting 160.... :( Fortunately its still too cold to swim and might be for a couple more weeks. Only 70 in the pool. So will using something like Peladow increase my CYA? cause I really don't want to go through that nightmare again. And when you...

So finally got to get my official numbers. 13000 gallons FC 2 CC .5 PH <7 TA 30 CH 160 CYA 65 Salt 3370 Plan was to add 58oz of 8.25% bleach to raise FC to 5 35oz of Borax to hopefully get PH to 7.5 7lbs of Baking Soda to get TA to 70 and really no idea what to do about the insanely low CH...

My misunderstanding, I thought if I added a bunch of borax to raise my ph it would also raise my CYA.

Just installed an SWG, I have refilled 70% of my pool and let the pump run most of the time to just keep circulation going. I have at this point only added salt which is now at 3500ppm. I know my FC (.5?)and PH(7.0?) are going to test low when I test it after work today. I know my CYA will be...

Pool is about 65 degrees after filling. Are there adjustments I need to make when testing the water for anything? After collecting it should I just let out warm up to 75 degrees before testing? Or does that not help at all? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

pool drained this morning took about 2 hours. Currently filling (not sure its ever going to finish...), salt tester should arrive tomorrow. I have my sj-40 cell installed, still haven't found the best way to mount the control unit to my vinyl siding. Is it ok to let it fill with water before...

thanks i will again tomorrow with a bit more sunlight, tried the diluted method just now looks closer to 180, but my lighting is average in house.
