The IC40 connects to the bottom of the easy touch. The intelliflo pump speeds are controlled manually as well. The 1st few days when I open the pool I set it to 3000 speed. Once the pool is crystal clear, I set the speed to around 1450-1650 and it stays there for most of the summer. The only...

Thanks for the speedy reply. I guess it's time for me to figure out this easy touch. I've never used it. I'll have to admit, Once I installed everything in 2017, it just "worked". I never programmed the easy touch, I've only used it as just a power center/circuit box. It has 4 circuits in it...

Installed in 2017 I have a green light in the salt level status (1) I have a green light in Flow (5) 3 solid lights in the sanitizer output (6) I'm missing a light in #4. (it was on yesterday) The less/more buttons do not work anymore. No matter how many times I press the Less/More buttons...

This black pipe at the bottom of my pentair DE filter turned on me. Not sure which direction the opening is supposed to be in. Up, down, sideways? Does it matter?

I got it, nvm

I can’t get the unions from my pentair multi valve off of my pentair DE filter. I have no idea which direction to turn it to losen them. I have a pretty steady leak coming from them and I’m trying to get the multivalve off of the filter so I can inspect & replace parts if needed. I am unable...

Ok thanks for the reply. My only concern was if it was generating chlorine or not. I’m fine with higher salt. The kids splash enough water out for me to have to replace and eventually it will balance out. Just wanted to make sure there was chlorine being made.

My IC-40 salt level is flashing green indicating high salt. I may have put too many bags in at pool opening. Does this mean the SWG is not producing chlorine until it is solid green? Is my only option to drain & add water to fix?

It’s that time of year again for all of us. Im now on my 2nd time opening my pool. My pool looks just as clear as it did when I closed it. It’s currently sitting around 30” of water apx 6k gallons. Do I really need to buy an “opening pool kit” or could I just fill it back up, add some salt...

I live on the corner and directly to my west is a giant corn field. Currently the field is just dirt as they have already harvested a few months ago. The only thing that separates my pool and the field is a 6ft privacy fence. that doesn't block much, lol

Opened the pool last month as the water temp was approaching that 60 mark. We had a really bad wind storm that blew, kid you not, 4-5” of sand into my pool. I have cleaned out the dolphin at least 30 times and have had to manually clean out and replace the DE in my 48sqft DE filter twice...

OK, thanks for the info !

Should I open my SWG pool now or wait a bit longer? Day temps getting up to as high as low 70's but overnight were still dipping below freezing. My plumbing is 3" PVC ran about 12" under ground apx 75' in length. The high winds over the winter completely destroyed my cover so the cover has...

Colorado, sub freezing temperatures. I realize I can’t get every bit of water out of it, but.. Will I be ok by just taking off the spider valve system and letting it drain out & tipping it over to get the most standing water possible out and putting it in my shed or covering it up with a tarp...

Thanks KimKats. It turned out it's not required by the city since we have a lock on the privacy fence anyways. This was just a secondary precaution purchase.

I purchased some above ground pool fencing for my 15 x 30 above ground pool with the intention of installing it. After the deck was finished I was going to install it next. The wife decided she didn't want it and I am past the 30 day returns window from the place I purchased it and they wont...

I haven't programmed my Easy Touch yet. So far I just have the pump running 24/7 at 1500 RPM. My pool has 11,000 gallons in it. I currently have my IC-40 set at 6%. Is that too much, too little? Where should I have it set at for now until I can get around to programming the EasyTouch to a...

First time ever testing pool water. Chlorine test = Added 4 drops of R-0871 x 0.5 = 2 added 5 drops of R-0003, solution turned pink. Added 2 more drops of R-0871 x 0.5 = 1 Solution turned clear. Went on to another test and left the solution alone. About 5 minutes later I See the solution is...

I was a lurker for a few months before I registered. then I started asking lots and lots of questions. I'm now the proud owner of a 15 x 30 pool and have saved TONS from the advice I learned here. I didn't think twice to become a supporter.
