About 6 weeks ago the booster pump didn’t come on. I was able to get it to come on by turning it off and on a few times. After a few days it quit coming on at all. Was not making any weird noises. About a week ago, We changed the capacitor out and it started right up. Has been running fine...

Flow switch light is red. It was intermittently red and green over the course of a few days while I have been trying to trouble shoot the issue. I have cleaned the salt cell and cartridge filter, and bypassed the flow switch. Connectors do not appear to be corroded. The flow light remains red...

Need a little advice on CH and PH. Pool is 9 months with water. PH rises quickly to over 8.2 every 3-4 days. I'll add enough acid to get it to about 7.5. I'll have to add in another 3 days again usually. If it rains, sooner. CH was pretty stable over the winter at 350-375. Tested it 4 times...
