Thanks for the suggestions. we ended up folding it over itself in sections and dried the bottom side as we folded it before releasing additional springs. Hopefully we got it dry enough! It was windy so that helped too. Luckily it was mainly condensation underneath.

Our pool was built last year and this the first year we are opening it. Anyone have a tricks in how to get a solid safety cover to dry out before putting it away so it doesn’t mildew? We don’t have a lot of concrete and we just had sod done so putting it on the grass ain’t happening! I have...

Curious if you have come across this unit yet. I have a new build and have one installed. I have questions and no one has been able to answer them. I have a call in with Hayward and am awaiting a tech to get back to me.

Thank you so much for all of your help! I am wondering if the electrician didn’t wire something correctly. But I will call Hayward tomorrow and confirm that the S3 should run the pump. I can also ask about how to know when chlorination is in on vs off. I am also wondering if should do a firmware...

Note we don’t have the Omni automation. I don’t think that makes a difference but thought I would mention it.

Hmmm. Well I wonder why it is not recognizing it when I do the set up? I have tried twice both times with VSP running at 1750 and 2000 rpm. I would assume that is enough flow for it to be “seen.”

SP2670020VSP

Hayward 1.65 TPH VS

Thanks. I will talk to PB ASAP. Here is a pic of our set up. Can’t see the pump because it is behind the filter but it has a connection going to the S3 and both VSP and S3 are independently connected to the timer.

Thanks. I will talk to PB ASAP.

Idk. It is a question we have for the PB. The pump appears to be wired to the S3 control box and both are independently wired to a timer. When I configured the S3 it didn’t “find a pump”. I want to run my VSP 24 hours so I removed the stop “pin” from the timer. I specifically requested a Hayward...

Thank your replying! Regarding the VSP, it is not controlled by the SWG. But I think I figured out since the SWG is driven by the flow switch, it should turn its self off, correct?

Anyone familiar with the Hayward Aquarite S3? We have an inground pool And that is the SWG that was installed. I am trying to dial in the percentage setting to optimize performance but also not prematurely use up the turbo cell. The cell installed is a T-340. I can’t figure out from the display...

Thanks! Do you think I should wait 24 hours before adding any muriatic acid?

Hi, all, Our install is complete. Just waiting on coping and concrete. The warm temps are making me nervous so I want to get the water balanced as soon as I can. I used the T-2006 kit to check levels yesterday evening. FC =0, pH =8.0+, TA=140, and CYA = 0. I planned to add Muriatic acid to...

Thank you!

We are finalizing our contract with our PB for 16 x 32 vinyl inground pool. We are getting 2 skimmers and 3 return jets. Can anyone tell me of the return jets should be run off of separate lines or is it ok for all 3 to be off of the same line? Same question for the skimmers? I am assuming if...

THANK YOU!

:ROFLMAO:

Thank you both for your comments! For some reason I didn’t get notifications or would responded sooner. Yes we agreed to keep dirt on site. We live On 10 acres and have some work to do in our front yard. We actually think we can use it all. I was thinking about adding a second skimmer and...

This site is overwhelmingly helpful! Thanks to folks that gave me recent assistance on picking equipment. The plan is to install a 16 x 32 inground vinyl pool. We have a quote / contract from our builder (attached) and I was wondering if there is anything we are forgetting. Also, I am wondering...

Thanks for the input. There is so much to a new install it is overwhelming to a newbie!

Thank you! The pool kit comes with a Jandy single speed and can be upgraded to a VS. I am not sure if other brands are available. As far as automation- I don’t really know anything about it!🤷‍♀️ I know that I want to be able to control the pump and SWG so that I don’t have to run 24 hrs per...

Hello, all, At our old home we had an AG traditional chlorine pool and you guys were super helpful teaching me about operating it. So now I am coming to you looking for additional advice. My husband and I are about to purchase a 16’ x 32’ with 8’ deep end inground pool (21,000+gallons). This...

I will definitely order the more advanced "good" kit. But am hoping we can get up and running soon. Very basic - dumb- question, but should you test while the pump is running? Will readings be out of whack if you take a sample after the pump hasn't run for a while (overnight)? Also - what is...

I first bought the Taylor test kit that checked pH and Chlorine. Then the girl said I needed the test strips. Measures 6 chemicals - TA pH CYA Total choline and total hardness. I am going to try to return the chemicals. We will see if they take them back!
