Bought a Circupool Core series for our pool. Had it for about 6 months. Super please with how easy it was to install. I have all Jandy equipment plus Jandy automation. I tied the Circupool to start when my pump starts. Could not be happier with the Circupool Core series. Where I am at in Texas...

I just installed a Core 35 for my 7.5k pool, super easy install. So far seems to be working great. I am curious to see how it stands up in the rain as there are vent holes on the top. Well see soon as rain is expected later this week.

Haven't done the calculations, I need to do that. I know my pump pulls 2400 watts at 3450 rpms, on start up it runs at 3200 rpm for maybe a minute or two to get primed and then it drops to 1750. It shouldn't be much different than what yours draws. Even if is 1000 watts @ 1750 it would not cost...

Yep auto fill, but definitely no leaks, water level has been steady except after a rain.

That's me, one minute make the change, the next just stay with what I have. I know I am over thinking this. I could go DIY no problem but if I stay with Jandy its best to get my PB to do the install. My PB is Premier Pools & Spas out of LaGrange, great folks to work with and they have been super...

I grew up in Houston so I know the water is not the best. I check chems every Saturday, this morning I was at 50, we had some rain that may have had some effect. The cost is not at issue, I just need to decide to pull the trigger. I guess my biggest concern is pump run time. I run my filter pump...

I thought I would post my concerns about a SWCG. I am on the fence about switching to a SWCG from Tri-Chlor tabs. The tabs have been working fine, CYA has been hanging around 60. I am seeing the battle lines between TFP and the PB's. Most of the PB's I have spoken with about a SWCG want to steer...

Great info and I have learned a lot, if I every do try that CYA reducer I will post some results. May never need to with Texas rain but who knows. I live 1/2 mile from the Blue Bell creamery, nothing better than a $1 bowl of good ole Blue Bell. I hit Buc-ee's two or three times a week, love me...

That is the interesting part, during the summer our pool is in direct sunlight 9 plus hours a day and right now we are getting direct sun from about 9:00 am until about 4:00 pm. I checked my numbers again with my TF-100 and FC - 5. I have plenty of chlorine that the pool builder supplied us...

I never thought about that, I am not consuming very much chlorine at all. Right I have had one tab in the chlorinator for two weeks and I have about half a tab left. I checked my numbers earlier and listed them below. FC = 7.2 CC = 0 CH = 800 TA = 100 CYA = 60 My CYA seems to be holding and not...

I haven't complete ruled out a SWG. I will just kind of play it by ear as we go through next season. As our pool is on the smaller side a SWG might work but outside this forum I am hearing a lot of negative comments about SWG in Texas from people who have them and pool maintenance companies...

Thanks everyone for all the good input. But being an electrical engineer I had to do some more research. So I got with my chemical engineer friend another friend who owns a pool maintenance company and a friend who works in the water field at a treatment plant. My chem E friend ran so many...

Thanks Chris, based on what I have learned I am going to make the switch to a SWG, I wish I had done this when the pool was built but live and learn. I am seeing the cost to move to a SWG is not that bad when compared to what the pool itself cost. I hope to get this done in the next few weeks...

Thanks Jim, I agree with what you say about SWG, we had a water softener on our house that used salt and you did not have that sticky feeling after a shower. I think I have talked myself into adding an SWG, I just have to find the right one. I have an Aqualink system controller and I believe...

Hi everyone, our pool is about two months old, it is 7.5k gallons and we have a spa. My question which I may be over thinking has to do with using trichlor. I have seen many folks say trichlor should not be used or is not preferred. Why would a pool builder install a Fusion 2 that uses trichlor...

Hi Everyone, We just finished building our pool. It is a 7500 gallon spool, pool/spa. We are new to owning a pool but being in the engineering field I just can't see paying someone to maintain our pool. I just ordered the TF-100 kit, had been using test strips but I am struggling reading the ph...
