I added the first bit of MA. Added some pictures below - you can see some of bigger accumulations at the bottom of the substance. However, on the sides it’s feels like sandpaper, although you can’t see anything visibly.

Unfortunately, my hot tub is not connected to my pool. Stand-alone.

Thanks. Will test in the AM. What would I be looking for? The MA to dissolve it? If so, what should I drop PH to (how much MA to add) tomorrow to begin the process?

FC: 4 Calcium: 50 ppm PH: 8+ off the chart, darker pink TA: 270 So, obviously MA will need to be added to fix the PH issue, but since this is may have contributed to scaling (?) I’ll wait to see recommendations/replies for the best next steps/ order of operations.

Hi all, I have a Bullfrog A8 and about 6 months ago or so I noticed a small bits of what appeared to look like sand deposits at the bottom of my hot tub. Not a lot, but noticeable. I chalked it up to just random debri. I do not use my hot tub much at all, but do try and keep it sanitized (no...

Thanks. Yes I know the ordering a T-15 for next time. At this point, just trying to squeeze out what I can this year and buy the new cell at the beginning of next season.

Hi all. I have a T-9, about 4 years old. I recently observed the salt level reading being low and not matching actually reality. Within a few days the salt cell reading dropped to 1600 and the check salt light came on. Confirmed the cell is clean and was simply on its way out. I was now trying...

Bump - for any last other thoughts for I make a decision :)

Yeah :/. Well, I’d prefer to avoid a permanent fence, if possible (why I was avoiding black iron fencing around the pool area, which would probably more expensive, no?

Thanks! I’ve asked each on warranty/repair info…

Hi everyone. We’ve decided to move forward and install a child protection pool fence this year. We are down to two options. Protect-A-Child Pool Fence - Start Enjoying Your Pool & Patio https://poolfence.com/ I’ve gotten quotes for both options, and they are essentially the same price...

Thanks. While we are getting quotes for the auto cover, I continue to think the mesh fence around the perimeter may be the way to go. With an auto cover, the pool would be open any time we are outside. So while safety protection would Be there if we weren’t outside, there could be risks...

Thanks to all the replies so far. would be there anything “negative” about having to do a top track automated cover (since mine is not rectangular)? More costly? Worse aesthetics? One other question for @an1vrsy….what type of alarms does the city require? I’ve heard some alarms are better than...

Hi all! We have a 22,000 gallon kidney shaped in ground pool (built in 2014, SWCG). We have a fence around a backyard where the pool is ,but our daughter just turned 1, and is almost walking, so we are looking at steps to take to ensure more direct safety on the pool for her specifically. One...

The other interesting thing (not sure if related) is the “timer” option on the power unit is not lit.

My Maytronics active 30 is not turning on. The power supply is turning on but the robot isn’t doing anything. I’m wondering if it’s a cable issue. When I remove the blue cable from the power unit, the power unit stays on. When the cable is attached it sometimes flickers out if I move it in...

Thanks everyone!

*Bump * anyone? Received about 3” more snow today. More ice on the cover. Here is what it looks like

Hi all. Pool was built in 2014 but this is the first winter since it’s been built that we’ve had significant snow and ice. I have a mesh cover and we received about 10”of snow the other night. I went around the edges with a soft broom and took off some of the snow just to help alleviate the...

Side note: not sure if anyone has experienced this one the Bullfrogs, but the headrest (7) material came all apart over the last year. Crumbling material that got into the water and filter. I ended up just removing them - and don’t even notice the difference.

Hi all. I have a Bullfrog A8. I just did my seasonal drain, water exchange, clean etc. Also, I replaced the two filters. I generally buy new filters once a year and drain 2x a year. What is really the optimal frequency for filter cleaning? I have relativity low use — so, once a week, do I...

Hi all. Pool is 6 years old...original liner. Liner seems to be in great shape all around, but did notice two spots that look like the image attached. Any need to fix (how?) or any cause for concern?

Also - is it normal for the heat pump to be leaking like this? Believe this is just condensation but seems pretty wet.
