For the past month, my SWG (Aquarite T15 Turbo Cell, 2 years old) has been acting up. Sometimes when I check it, it will read "HOT". Typically if I turn it off and wait a while, it will stop reading hot and give a salt readings when I turn it back on. My average salt reading has been low. I...

Hi- this is our second summer with our fiberglass pool. Last summer it seem like we had a lot of dust and they were doing road work nearby but it was mostly managed with a robot vacuum and brushing. This summer I am noticing what seems like more accumulation (see pics) on the bottom and on the...

having a new problem with my hayward turbocell. My salt was low (2600) , so I added 2 bags over the 5 days (2nd one 2 days ago). This morning I tested the salt manually (2x) with the Taylor test kit and was at 3000. At one point the afternoon the instant reading on the SWG was at 3300. Now...

today I went to test our pool routinely and my chlorine level was zero! We had been out of town week before last, but when I had checked 5 days ago it was at 6. I checked and our SWG (Aquarite Turbocell) was not generating and said "check cell" and "check salt". Salt level in pool (checked...

our filter/pump is not working. seems to be a problem with the Omni controller. Pool person will not be out until monday to look at it. I am testing chlorine - if I need to add, should I just be adding liquid chlorine in the meantime?

I appreciate all the help I’ve gotten from this site so much! I feel like if I had been following the pole star recommendations I would’ve been adding gallons of chemicals! I feel like I’m on the right track but want to make sure that I am adjusting things correctly. Today’s results are- FC 6...

New pool, initially had CYA of 0 and FC 1-2, with running SWG almost all the time at 100%. I added CYA-stablizer (about 2/3 the recommended amt per pool math) and 2 days later my CYA level was 20, but my FC with up to 20 also! Still very high after cutting back the time and % on the SWG and...

hi, pool newbie here and getting used to my TF-100 test kit. Had 5 inches of rain last night so ran tests today. New pool we have had for 2 months and I've added very little. salt 2700 Cl 3.0 pH 7.9 TA 70 CYA 0 CH 175 So I need salt, stabilizer, lower the PH and probably increase the...

new to having a pool and trying to get this figured out.... Pool store has my TA at 70 (twice) and I have repeated the TF-100 testing 3x myself and is is much higher - 160-180. I think I'm doing it right, watched the video, etc (though I don't have a speed stir, I think I'm mixing it ok). Is...

hi - we installed a pool 1 month ago and I'm so confused! Its a 21K gallon fiberglass pool with a SWG. i'm really confused on what targets to use for chemicals. The pool handbook from the pool manufacturer (Leisure pools), says our targets are : pH – 7.2-7.4- not higher due to calcium...
