    Do you have to shock a Salt water pool?

    Yeah .. I test my water. I follow the FC/CYA chart. I was just making sure. It was a pool store. They told me there was no way to keep my pool sanitary without shocking.

    Bad T-15 cell?

    I thought my cell was bad because my Aqua Plus display was showing low salt. It was only reading 2000ppm and cell was off. So I took a water sample to local pool store and it was 3500ppm. So they told me I needed a new cell. I ordered a new Hayward T-15 cell from Pool Supply. When I got...

    Water Is Not Crystal Clear

    No Cell Power!

    I found a video on YouTube and checked each step. Until it told me my rectifiers needed replaced. So installed new rectifiers. Still no power took my T-15 cell to a buddys house, and it turned right on. I did find a burnt solder on back of board. It was behind a relay. I was wondering how hard...

    Mustard Algae?

    I have landscaping back by pool. I don't really see much pollen or dirt on anything. Filter pressure doesn't change much at all. It stays about 14 or so most of the time. Also, I don't have skimmer socks on my skimmers.

    I have been slaming pool for 9 days adding bleach twice a day to maintain a FC of 24. It is pretty clear now. I ran out of regeant to test my chlorine. So I have to wait until it comes in. I have been adding a gallon in morning, and in evening. Brushing and vacuuming twice a day. Only question...
