    Switching to a SWG need help

    If I go the automation route, should I still get the IC 60 or another SWG with another automation brand? Looking for bare bones automation that can be expanded to control water features? $3,000 is not in the budget right now.

    Switching to a SWG need help

    I updated my pool stats in signature. My pool is 21,000 gallons. Not even turning on/off the SWG with pump? Can I program pump to increase speed when SWG is on?

    Switching to a SWG need help

    Do they still make the IC 60? I only see the new IC 30. I see you have the IC 40. Any issues? Would you purchase that again? If I decide with the IC 60, what functionality can I use with my pump and connection cable? I run my pump 12hrs at 1100.

    Switching to a SWG need help

    My Stenner pump broke. The motor runs but the spindle does not turn with the motor. I've had it for years now and replaced every part but when it breaks or gets a leak it takes me a while to realize I am not getting any chlorine in the pool. Plus liquid chlorine is getting expensive and tired of...

    Pump recommendation for BIL pool

    I don't know if it is 115v or 220v. The plate is worn down but it is a 1.5hp marathon motor.

    Pump recommendation for BIL pool

    My brother in law old pool pump just died and he asked me for recommendation. His pool is roughly 12'X24' roughly 4ft avg depth = 8600 gals He has no features I think 1 or two returns, a suction side vac and the pad is 15 ft away with small cartridge filter. I have a much larger pool with more...

    New Intelliflo connected to Hayward Solar Controller (GL-235)

    Hi guys, Just installed a new EC-011028 and want to have my solar controller switch the pump speed to 1800 rpms when heating. I have been searching through the old posts and found a lot of these controllers but no solutions for my scenario. Pump came with a RS-485 (2 wire) com cable. I have...

    Debating between replacing motor or buying complete new VS pump

    My Jandy 2.5hp 2 speed pump (14 years old) just crapped out. Took it to a electric motor repair shop and they said can't salvage. A new 2 hp motor will run $400 plus new seal and tax. Repair guy said the motor really isn't 2.5 hp. Should I replace the motor or bite the bullet for a new pump...

    JandyStealth 2.5 2 speed replacement

    Pump is in the shop, would not turn on. When powered on the pump would make a humming sound for 3 secs then shut off. The impeller turns freely. I am getting prepared for when they tell me I have to replace the motor. My biggest issue is that my pump on low was barely maintaining the pool due...

    SWG?

    I just bought a CircuPool RJ45 and had it for two weeks which means not much at this point. I can only tell you my thinking process. I narrowed down my selection to the Compupool SC48, CircuPool RJ45 and Aquarite40. - CircuPool and CompuPool are made by same manafacturer. Reviews are good on...

    New CircuPool RJ45 Install - Low Salt?

    All, I have the CircuPool RJ45 connected to my timer and my unit has power even when the pump is off. That is to say I do not loose the clock. The screen displays "OFF".(The screen kind of greys out but still visible. I guess you can say the backlight dims.)

    Compupool CPSC36

    I have the CircuPool which is made by the same manafacturer and mine reverses every 12 hours. I do not know if that 12 hours is running time or based on a 24 hour schedule but for 2 days I had the unit at polarity 2 and today roughly the same time it was polarity 1.

    Compupool CPSC36

    I can't see the images. I just installed the CircuPool RJ 45 which is almost the same as the Compupool and have similar questions. My unit came with the bonding lug but I do not see were it goes attached. My case is all plastic except for the metal braket. If I attach the bonding lug to the...

    How to protect wooden patio furniture?

    I just bought two chaise lounges online and the reviews say they are great chairs but they don't weather well. I was thinking of using Thompson Water Seal or some kind of polyurethane. What do you guys recommend? The chairs are some kind of imatation teak and the instructions say to use teak oil...

    Looking to buy a SWG

    Thanks to all, I made my choice. I went with the CircuPool RJ 45. I was not completely ready but there was a special at Discountsaltpool that upgraded the CircuPool 1 model up and it ends Aug 1st and did not want to miss the special. I bought the RJ 30 (1.35 lbs p/day CL) for $799 and they...

    Help to choose SWG

    At 70 CYA normal CL levels are 4-8ppm. Most say it is OK to swim at shock levels which would be 16ppm for a 70 cya level. I personally would not go in over 12ppm but that is just me. Go to poolcalculater.com and plug in your pool numbers, this is a great tool.

    Sean, Is Davey LTD the same as "CircuPool" on that list? Do you happen to know where to look up their numbers? Bobo, I asked that question in another thread and I think you anwered my question, what is the conversion of SWG lb/per day vs liquid chlorine? If 1 lb of CL gas the same as 1 gallon...

    There is also a small plastic adjustment screw next to one of the back feet. I don't have the manual handy but the state to try to turn the screw 1 click and test. Don't know if it is left or right. I will try to find the manual.

    Looking to buy a SWG

THey have the CompuPool with 3 different CL output. They have .92, 1.69 and 1.28 and they state a 3yr Warrenty. I went on the...
