How do I add something to my signature?

Haven’t been able to find pump rating. Pool was here when bought hose. Test kit is TF-100 Temp 91F noon FC 0 CC 10 CH 80 CYA 25 TA 130 PH 7.2-7.5

Ok thanks. Is 2 hours enough time to retest?

It is 23000 gal

In the past seems like holding my ph closer to 7.2-7.5 the chlorine holds better. In the past at 8+ a gal brings it down to about 7-7.5. We are expecting thunderstorms this afternoon. Rain always seems to raise ph. Thanks any other thoughts?

23,000 gal pool and hot tub. 0645 this morning ph >8, chlorine 0-.5. Added a gal muriatic acid. Heavy use yesterday. Thanks

Thank you just trying to save a $$ and my 66 year old fat knees.

Here’s the scenario: due to pool getting very funky over the past week (my fault) I know I’m gonna have to backflush several times. Backflush run for awhile backflush repeat. So can I do this without putting de back in each time? Will it hurt the filter? Will the filter even work without de...

I think I figured out that the Pentair doesn’t use an o’ring. No need to reply.

B668 motor long shaft. I think a Polaris pump using PS 1000 seal. My question is which o’ring do I need to get ? I ordered the wrong number. I’m trying to find the right one at hardware store. I need it today. Should it be somewhat loose on shaft or tight? Should it fill the whole groove of the...

Thanks I think I can do that. As soon as I get grandsons GoPro.

Trying to get some decent pictures. And even when I do I don’t have a clue as to how to get them on here. Would I move them to my laptop in a file then attach file?

One is I think metals in water this developed during the winter (southeast Texas). It is very very slowly coming out with brushing. The other is dark green patches in various places.

Thanks

I m guessing that over time the bristles dry rot (uv) rays and start coming off. ????

No doubt the issue was shards of the stone used for coping the pool.

Alright folks, spider valve is clean lubed back in service circulating. Thanks for all the information.

Don’t know yet. I’ve got to get some silicone lube first. I do need to lubricate the moving surfaces right? I also noticed some wear on the fingers in center section of bottom half. Wish I knew how to get picture off phone and post it here.

Oops I meant Zea

Zeta thanks so much. So far I’ve taken top half off. Has a good amount of shards from the coping work. Pool is only about 11/2 yo. Gasket looks ok for now maybe slightly rough where the really fine pieces have ground on it. I think I have rinsed all out top half. I don’t think I want wrestle...

Not yet. Yes Pentair

Needed to drain half my pool to get CYA number by refilling. Spider valve is stuck in waste mode. When back flushing it moves relatively easy but now l’m afraid I’m going to brake something.

I’ve Read the term in other posts but don’t understand. Is there another piece of equipment I need? I’ve been reading the threads about the yellow greenish pool I’ve got. Just bought the house and know nothing about a pool.
