I am in the middle of my work day and don't have time for Taylor just yet, but I did a quick 50% mix test (pool/tap) with the quick stick and the CYA came in the 30-50 zone, FC 5, pH 7.2, TA 80. For giggles, I ran another quick stick on the remaining pool water and was back at 100 cya, 10 FC...

Yes, the CYA was from the quick sticks as I just wanted to see where the main numbers were. I've battled high CYA in the past (pool came with the house), which is why I switched to liquid chlorine and joined this community/app. I'll run another test when I switch out the robot filters in a...

Thank you for the links to these parts. I was wondering where to get extra little foam crawler rings and spring/fall filters. slightly off-topic: Does anyone run a hybrid filter setup like I do? 2 spring filters on the outsides, and 2 fine filters on the inside?

I am a subscriber to the app and log all activity but have not linked the accounts. The pool opening this spring was cloudy, whereas it's usually very clear. Opening service shocks, bleeds, skims and recharges as usual and pool usually clears up. In these 2 days I have had the first fresh charge...

Thanks for the info. I'll give it a go.

GREAT. So based on my model number, my unit was built AFTER 2011 ? OR do I get that from the SN 1302171179 ?

@ajw22 It seems my model number is P-R4406A-EN-C EDIT: Here is the pertinent info from the online manual for the R406A unit: 4-C -- P.C. Board/Control -- 013464F 7-C -- LCD Display --Units manufactured from 5/2011 -- 013640F Fingers crossed

That makes it easy. Thanks for the help. :cheers:

Thank you. I thought it would be an item that came with the magna latch. I guess something like this would work. Pricey, but I need the safety.

I'll get on it first thing in the AM. They left me the manual, but it doesn't say which model I actually have. Thanks again. I see that pre-post 2011 is the difference between 300 or 35 bucks.

Thanks again @ajw22 It's a bit of an overload having all this unknown equipment to take care of now. Really appreciate it. +1

thanks a bunch @ajw22 -- are there any good videos showing the moving of the switch part? Plopping in a new timer I can handle.

Thanks for the help. Here is the timer with the wiring cover off. Runs and turns on like a champ, but OFF dogs wont turn it off.

@ajw22 Where do I get that information? I posted photos of the board and the lcd. Pool came with the house. I already cleaned the pins and made sure connections were tight. Heats fine, just no display.

Outdoor plastic box. Timer runs and turns ON the pump, but will not accept OFF dogs. No matter how hard I tighten them, it crunches them off, grinds them and bends them to its will. I'm in the market for replacing all the guts to get the thing working as it should. I have no idea which model...

So one of the pool gates wasn't closing fast enough so I looked into tightening it. I did a 1/4 turn on the spring bolt and the metal on the actual hinge snapped. So now I need a new hinge because the door will not close automatically. It has a magic latch that works fine, but I need those...

The heater works fine, but I can't see anything on the LCD. I took things apart just to see model numbers before I am ordering and want to make sure I get the right part. I DO NOT want to replace the entire board, just the LCD, as the heater is working just fine (we only use it for the spa). I...

Thank you!

Thank you for the welcome. I'm an official member now and just subscribed to the app. Hmm, I just opened my pool this week tuesday, so I'm not sure where that date is. I will add a filter recharge for the tuesday date. Also, where can users access my pool updates, etc.? That seems useful...

You can also scan the IR codes and use your phone if it has an IR sensor, or re-program or use another a generic remote.

That's great. Any idea about Lowe's? (much shorter drive) EDIT: I see they have a white label brand that is also 10% for around $3.80/gal Those HD 3 packs for 9.99 look great so I will keep and eye out for those. Thank you!

there was a disturbing glitch when I got set up on my phone in that it put my PASSWORD in where my Zip Code should have been. I went in and manually changed it to the zip but I have never had that happen in any app and it was a bit of a shock. double check your zip code if you're a new user...

WRT the app: I just subscribed to the app and after setting everything up I noticed that I get an alert to backwash the filter even though I have set the reminder for 14 days. There is no way to get rid of the alert. On latest android.

That is great. What is the price per gallon and what is the chlorine %? If it is the same as white label Lowe's bleach $3.69/gal, then that is the way I will go.
