    New Plaster w/Aggregate - Help on start up Please

    Thank you! I found so many different guides out there and wasn't sure which to follow. We have a chlorine pool with a sand filter. The main setup is pretty old but pump and sand were replaced last year.

    New Plaster w/Aggregate - Help on start up Please

    Thank you for the help! Water was added starting late Friday last week so almost 7 days. Took until Sunday to fill I believe (was out of town). Added muriatic acid on Sunday because we were told to, but they hadn't tested water. Added sequestrant on Monday. Working on raising TA and CH today...

    New Plaster w/Aggregate - Help on start up Please

    Reposting here as I'm not sure I posted in the right forum the first time: Due to a family issue with our pool company, we got stuck with no help on the start up after fresh plaster w/aggregate was just done. I've gone through the pool school and other tutorials but I'm confused on where we're...

    Replacing old AO Smith uprated 1hp motor

    Just realized we only have 110v electric running to that. We will just replace with the regular motor at this time and hope to upgrade in a few years. Thank you for all of your help!

    Replacing old AO Smith uprated 1hp motor

    Thank you Patrick! I was able to get the other equipment photos as well. Current pump is SP2607X10 Hayward and filter is Tagelus Deluxe TA-60D. Pretty sure both of those pieces of equipment are at least 10-15 years old. Filter label indicates 2001 maybe. I did have a couple other questions on...

    Replacing old AO Smith uprated 1hp motor

    Thank you kimkats for putting in the pm and thanks patrick for the reply. I will get a photo of the filter information when I can run home in a couple hours. The pump and motor are the standard Hayward Superpump 1 HP I believe. Could only find model info on the motor but the pump looks just...

    Replacing old AO Smith uprated 1hp motor

    We need to replace the motor on our Hayward Superpump 1hp. It appears to be an uprated 1hp motor and model UST1102 would be a direct replacement. As the suction has always been a bit low since we bought the house, we wonder if we should go with a full-rated 1hp (ST1102 or CT1102) or even a dual...

    Help opening swamp

    Thank you! I did get the correct test kit, which is where I got the above numbers from. I won't be able to start a full SLAM until tomorrow, so I will try to get the TA and pH up today. I appreciate the help.
