I know the description is kind of vague, but my pool and cleaner and all equipment is about 6 years old. I keep all skimmers traps clean, clean/replace DE filter 2-3 times a year and just generally try and keep everything clean and working. At the beginning, the pool cleaner worked great...

I have the ScreenLogic software installed on my Windows desktop and can connect to the adapter / system and make changes or monitor just fine. However, I can no longer connect my iPhone wirelessly to the system using the latest ScreenLogic Connect. It stopped working sometime in the past month...

I have followed my PB's written instructions for backwashing, but I strongly feel like I am doing something wrong. The instructions say to put the pump in service mode, pull the backwash handle up and run for one minute, then place the backwash handle back to the down position, run for a minute...

Our pool went live one year ago. Last February, the PB did a acid wash to address a couple of cosmetic defects in the plaster (similar to pebble tec, but different brand). Over the course of the next 3-4 months, we noticed the plaster looked bleached-out for lack of a better description. The...

I don't know anything about pumps or hydraulics, but I'll try to describe what is going on and maybe someone can point me in the right direction. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Pool opened in Oct - no issues with pressure/flow out of returns, skuppers, bubbler. Over the winter I close...

New owner as of Oct. No real issues through winter. Got my test kit from TFP a couple of weeks ago and I think I am getting pool in shape. 3-18 PH: 8.2 FC: 9 ppm CC: .5 CAL: 400 ppm TC = 9.5 TA = 80 ppm CYA: 20 ppm 3-25 PH 7.2 FC: 10 ppm CC: .5 TC: 10.5 CAL: 250 ppm TA: 60 ppm CYA: 30 ppm...

Just got our pool in October. Last week the PB drained and acid washed the pool to fix some defects in the finish. They dumped salt in, Intellichlor says 3800. I currently have output for the pool set at 40% and Spa output at 10%. When the system is running and I test the water, it looks like...

So, the PB told me to back wash about once a month and I did that for the first time this past weekend (the PB did the first backwash). We have backwash tank/separation tank that (I am told) keeps us from losing a bunch of water during the back wash process. I am trying to learn as much about...

I've been lurking here ever since we decided to build a pool and trying to learn as much as I can. Was on the way to work this morning when I got a call saying the dig was happening today in like 20-30 minutes. LOL - uhm ok. See you there! Anyway, the crew was great and those guys friggen work...
