    Question on using Taylor 2006C Drop Tests

    Hello Everyone, When I am testing using drop tests with Taylor what do I consider my end point? For example: If testing alkalinity, at drop 10 the water turns red, at 11 drops it turns darker red, at 12 drops there is no change. Do I call it 100, 110, or go between the two, and call it 105?

    Hayward Heater Keeps shutting off

    Thank you for your reply. I may have a problem with the inline check valve. It could be broke causing a flow issue. I noticed when I had the heater disconnected the flow seemed improved.

Only the header was new, I used all the old components on the header. The heater has been working fine, with the exception of what I think may be a short in...
