How should I use mps and maintain my chlorine level? These are rental cabins and I only get to check pool on the day guest check out. These cabins may rent one night to a week or longer. That's why I use tabs. I need chlorine coming in all the time. Cause some people may use pool a couple times...

Little background I have been cleaning a few outdoor pools for a resort for a few years now. I have had no problems maintaining the water. But I have recently started cleaning cabins and I have been giving all the cabins with indoor pools. 1 is a salt water pool 1 is bromine pool other 3 are...

More then likely you have weak start cap. Its the round thing with the 2 wires going to it on the back of the pump. Has numbers on the side of it. Can buy one at pool store usually around 8 to 10 dollars. Try turning the power off on the pump again. If it starts on its own then your good. If it...

If you cant turn it or if it starts and stops again. Your motor is shot. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2

Another question. Did you remove the pump basket out to clean it out?. If so you may have lost the prime on the pump Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2

It could have a weak start cap. Turn power off on the pump look on the bavk of your pump motor. You should see a flathead screw driver slot. If not remove the screw holding the cover on. Now get a flathead screw driver and turn pump on and turn the shaft with the screw driver. If it takes off...

I have order the test kit. But the kit I have gives me everything but cya and calcium hardness. I have read pool school shock many times. And I have test strips for now that can give me ball park numbers for the cya and ch till my kit comes in the mail. My pool is pretty close to being crystal...

Well just shocked my pool again. I switched to bleach this morning. Total of 8 2 qt bottles. I add some cya this morning also. And puts some de in to help the filter out. So will see how it looks in the morning. I could see bottom drains pretty good this evening. So may meet the Saturday mark...

I need know what a fair price is for have mybsand replaced in my pool sand filter. Its a triton ll tr 140. Needs 650 lbs of sand. How much is to much to pay a pool guy do it. I dont want get ripped off. Thanks Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2

I ended up replacing the board. Maybe when I get time I will check this board out more. See if I can find the problem. But all fuse were good. Had good contact on all relays. Just never could get 240 across element. When I went to the shop the guy said that didn't manufacture that board any more...

I have a balboa spa pack and all my contacts are pulled in and still not getting 240 across element. I have replace element also. Im stumped on this. When I pull contact down I barly get a spark from any of them. All power is there 120 on element legs and on everything on board suppose to have...

Is the water in pool and spa at the same temperature? If the pool water is lower then the spa water the heater is going to keep running till the pool water hits the cut off temperature. And with a pool being tied into the same heater as spa I would think it would cause the heater to run cause...

Duraleigh I see your point. Didn't mean sound rude if I did. Been long long week at work. The ozone should be connected to the side of the spa pack. Should be label ozone. As far as if its the problem and should you leave it unplugged. I work in a cabin rental and on a daily base I deal with...

Re: Re: Something's eating my FC If it holds fc after it is disconnected it would obviously be the ozone being his problem. Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

Ozone purifies water and air very quickly and efficiently, 3,000 times faster than chlorine. It kill bacteria and virus. If you want, you could just try turning off diconnecting your ozonator to see if that makes a difference. Ozone will react with chlorine to produce chloride (salt) and...

Try unplug pump from the board and kick the power on to the tub and see if it stays on. If it does you know you got a problem in the pump causing it to shut down Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

Thanks for reply I mentioned I use super iron out to clear water up but it bottoms chlorine out. I work for rental company these tubs get dump pretty much every check out. Will these products you talk about work with this much dumping on the water? Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

Is there any way to prevent water from turning brown after shocking or a shock that is made for well water that has high iron in it? Right now I use iron to clear water up, but doing so seems to bottom shock out. This is with shock and non chlorinated shock. Any suggestions? Sent from my...
