    Aqualink PDA Issue

    We have the same issue with ours although at slightly higher temps. I just throw some shade on it and that seems to do the trick.

    solar recirculation

    You've got almost the exact same pool as me. Even the labels on the equipment look the same. SE PA by any chance? Anyway, as noted above, return 1 up to solar recirculate and turn the valve under main drain label down. Don't run cleaner when in this mode.

    how often to shock pool and FC amount

    This is my 3rd year with my pool and the next time I shock my pool will be the first. On a related note, I've got an entire tub of dichlor that my father in law got me our first year if anybody wants it.

    Under Construction in PA

    Yes, deck was poured in the fall (2010). In March/early April 2011, we got the landscaping done around the pool. Mid April 2011 PB came out and plastered and started filling with water. Couple days later the startup tech came out, turned everything on, gave us a quick lesson on how things...

    Good luck with the project. We had ours started about the same time two years ago. Our pool looks fairly similar to yours, maybe the same builder. We're in Exton. Anyway, ours was finished around late-October but we waited until the following spring to plaster/fill the pool. That way we...

    Jandy PDA Remote time/date keep resetting

    That happens to us when we lose power. Time and date reset but everything else, what I've programmed etc., stays. I don't think it's ever happened out of nowhere though, only when we lose power.

    Anthony-Sylvan????

    A&S built our pool in Exton, PA in the fall of 2010. 28K gallons, gunite. Very pleased with the whole process and final result. In fact, the salesman is my neighbor. Not sure where you are in SE PA, but if you're near Exton you're more than welcome to take a look.

    Central PA Pool Build

    I feel for you. I live in Chester County and I've probably drained 20 inches of water out of my pool the last month. Not that this will make you feel any better, but we started construction of our inground pool last year on 8/30 and at most it rained 1 or 2 days in September. This weather is...

    Protection from legal action for accidents

    The liability portion of your homeowners will cover anything that happens. If you don't already have an umbrella policy now would be a good time to get one. They're cheap.

    Brand new pool-CYA to 30 in 6 weeks with tabs

    Great forum. New 29,000 gallon concrete pool opened for first time mid April. Found forum a week later after buying tons of tabs and dichlor. How fast can CYA possibly accumulate I think. Should be good with tabs for a couple years. Well, 6 weeks in, using only tabs and dichlor once for...
