    First SLAM critique

    After nearly 6 years of pool ownership I ran across an issue of light haze in the water. I cranked up the SWG and the haze persisted. I had the SWG maxed at 100 % and was seeing FC at 6-7 and CC of 0.5. I was also seeing a good deal of fine dusty looking material when I brushed the pool. I...

    Aqua Rite SWG Q

    Been having a difficult time keeping a stable FC level of late. I set my swg @ 35% for 8 hours. Next day I check and it shows 44% or maybe 28%. Doesn't seem to stay where I leave it. Time for a replacement ckt board? The unit is about 10-11 years old. So my FC levels also vary widely...

Recently, I have been backing up my readings with Leslie's new digital testing and I like the fact that their digital testing is repeatable to a degree...

    Just got a Pentair superflo VS 1.5. Ran single speed for 4 hours. How long for the VS?

    When I replaced my single speed 1½ hp pump with the SUPERFLO VS I chose to program it to do 1½ trurnovers in 8 hours. I programmed it for 2 hours at 3000 RPM to skim off any floating debris then run it 1500 RPM for 6 hours. This is adequate to keep my SWG producing enough chlorine and reduced...

    My 1½ HP single speed pump died and I replaced it with a 1½ HP Pentair SuperFlo VS. I have three timer options available. Currently I set it to run at 3000 rpm for two hours and at 1450 RPM for six hours. I've not set the third timer. My Pool: 10k gal, plaster, 1½ Hp Pentair 342001 SuperFlo...
