    Pentair or Jandy

    My current pool is Pentair Intellicenter and to be honest, I have not been impressed over the last 3 years with all their "growing" pains with different apps, downtimes, and seemingly short comings with technology. and have almost had all the equipment get replaced under warranty except 1 pump...

    Keep having to acid wash my pool, HELP! Calcium hardess just keeps rising

    Keep having to acid wash my pool, HELP! Calcium hardess just keeps rising

    well my pool has a small leak which is actually working in my favor because its adding in auto-filler water (200 hardness) and helping mitigate the scenario but as this leak gets fixed its just going to exacerbate the hardness rising. I am not putting cal-hypo in the pool

    My pool is approx 18 months old and I am about to have it acid washed for the 3rd time. The finish is pebbletec pebble fina. Long story short the calcium hardness steadily rises until I get calcium buildup that looks like white scale marbling all over my pool. The tap water in my city is 200...

    Glacier Pool Coolers vs Heat Pump Chiller - Help me decide

    Glacier was the proper answer for me because I already had a NG heater for my Hottub and my pool being only 10,000~ gallon its easy enough to heat. The glacier chiller I had schedule to run from 10:00PM to 8:00AM Thursday/Friday/Saturday for primary pool use of friday/saturday/sunday. I was able...

    CH(Calcium Hardness) keeps creeping up over 400

    So let me backup a bit, after they did the plaster (Pebblefina) they told me be religious about brushing it as it will produce like a white material from the plaster while it cures, and I did, I brushed the thing like 10 times a day but the white stuff was STUCK, it would not come out especially...

Once it gets up to 450, I have been draining about 30% of my water and refilling and it brings it back down to about 300 and then it starts...

    Glacier Pool Coolers vs Heat Pump Chiller - Help me decide

    Saturday I left it running all day, the pool never got above 86, the temp was 100 degrees with a heat index of 115. So this is TOTALLY acceptable. I left it running until this morning, the water was 79. My arms are a "walking" I wonder if I should open the feed valve a little more to get a...

    Glacier Pool Coolers vs Heat Pump Chiller - Help me decide

    Ran for 11 hours took my pool from 83 to 80 over night, seems like it did nothing? i would think just the cooler night air would bring it down 3. However the true test will be after a hot day when the water is 90+ if it can get it back to the low 80s ill be satisfied. I enjoy swimming 84-86...
