I've been scouring the threads on here regarding these lights. I have the 1 1/2 inch lights and they are now out of warranty. I have contacted Hayward and they told me to suck it. I did see some posts about another company and another about a new design from Hayward but I never actually saw a...

Has anyone tried this? I keep reading or hearing things about this. I'm all for something else, to make life easier. Found this on web. "A more stable way of applying CO2 is to apply it below the normal levels and apply it so it is present in the water 24/7. This makes for a much more stable pH...

I will look into it. Thanks so much. I will keep you posted.

Does it HAVE to be a pentair or Siemens breaker? Not sure that will work in my panel but I'm no expert. My SP is a Square D Home. Sorry for my ignorance, but when you say noise, what are you talking about and is there a way to troubleshoot?

Project was inspected in 2017 to be sufficient. I know that that doesnt mean much in this day and age though. Sub panel is approximately 10' from main. Pump/motor is approximately 10' from sub. I tested voltage from SP to motor and had 238v. With Salt Cell off, I turned breaker on, and held 238...

I'm on my sixth season with my pentair pump/motor. Recently as last year to this year, I would some times wake up or get home and breaker would be tripped. Unfortunately, until just today, I was never in right place at right time to witness. Today, I was and saw "error ooof". I've searched...

Alright. I’ll be in touch. Give me a few days

My salt level is 3400 ppm according to Taylor test. Am I reinserting Algea from prior vacuuming? Is that possible? They were cleaned prior to pool opening. I have a second set. Only CYA stuff I ever put in, never dissolved so I never used again.

What is a good liquid CYA additive?

3400 PPM according test

Sorry Skippy, right now I have Salt cell running at 100%

Mknauss, thank you. I did just read a previous post about black Algea and you mentioned that. I also read article you had there. I think im glad I don’t have black Algea?? Yippee skippy, Thank you. I have the Taylor 6000. No plan. Was thinking a skid steer and dirt. I run my pump 24/7...

I have a salt water pool, cartridge filter with variable speed pump. FC 0. PH 7.4. ALK 60. CH 150. CYA 0. I know my numbers are not ideal. Pool is crystal clear. However, I have I think Black Algea. I dove in today to confirm it was not sand or dirt. Believe I touched black Algea. I read Algea...

Apologies for being stupid but what is the shock Chlorine number? IT says Minimum FC=3 Target=4 Shock FC=24 I assume it has something to do with the amount of Chlorine I need to add to get my FC levels to the Target Number?? Lastly, other than the chlorine, do you feel that I need to mess...

I did all testing last night. CYA was 0. FC-1 CC-1 TC-2 PH-7.2 ALK-90 CA-190 Salt-3600 I added CYA last night after the test came back 0. I was always holding at 30 and I have never had any CC since I opened the pool. I was thinking it had something to do with the fact that in Upstate NY we...

5 Gallon Pail Hot Water, Dissolved as much as possible, put pump to 3000 RPM's to run continuously and poured in skimmer. My CYA levels were taken 1 week ago. I only have enough solution for one more test, I will reorder agent but since Taylor kits says its not a daily test, I did not test until...

OK, I did another test last night and while I am not home, I am going to try and give you my levels. FC-1 CC-1 TC-2 PH-7-2 ALK-90 CA-190 SALT-3600 CYA-00000 I just saw your last post but last night I added 5 lbs of Stabilizer to my pool to try and elevate the CYA. Yesterday when I was in...

Thirty

I have the taylor test kit. My FC is 1. My CC is 1. All other levels are balanced. Yesterday ,pool was cloudy and i had 0 FC and 0 CC. I attributed it to the 5th day of high 90 heat and my pool gets 0 shade. I added hth Ultimate and turned my chlorinator to the max to get to todays levels...

Much appreciated sir. Have a wonderful evening and Thanks

Sorry to keep going with this but, should i add 40lbs at a time until i get thete or put two 40 lb bags in tonight? Also, will it bother anything to swim around with the salt to keep it moving and help the dissolving process? Should i unplug salt generator at this time? As far as other question...

Thank you sir. What is the desired PPM in a 30K pool? - - - Updated - - - Pool calculator says add 33lbs to get me to 3000, however id like to know what my overall objective should be.

Sorry y'all, i have a 30,000 gallon L Shaped pool. My salt generator is saying salt level low. I have the Taylor test kit, its saying my salt level is 2600 parts per million. Im new to this stuff and i cant find if thats high, low how much im supposed to have, how much o need to add, all that...

I bought the k2006 wTer testing kit. Can anyone recommend a good salt water testing kit. Im vacationing in NC. The company servicing the pool here says he uses a solexx salt tester. What are anyone elses thoughts?:confused:

Hello all, I wanted to get some back up filters for my Cartridge filter system. Do they make Generic filters that work just as well as the Heyward but at a fraction of the cost. The filters in my Samsung Fridge are 60 a piece. I buy generics for 20 bucks and they are working just as well, so...

Fc 9 cya 50

I will be leaving for approximately 10 days. What steps can I take to ensure the pool is clean on my return. My cleaning lady "Nahla" will be vacuuming the pool for me but she does not touch the chemicals. Anyone have anything I should add, or should I set the Salt cell at 100%? Going to visit...

Finally got the Taylor k2006 here are my results. FC. 9 CC. 0 PH. 7.8 ALK. 100 CH. 170 CYA. 50 I was told these numbers are not bad, but what can i do to maintain them? I have not added anything since day pool was finished. I have only turned IC40 up to 100% and then down to 40% every...

Do i ever add chlorine? The only thing i have been doing is turning ic40 up to 100 and then down to 40. I have not put anything else in. I would like to add how extremely different my results are with this kit as opposed to strips and the pool store. I just want to ensure the clear water
