I wouldn't dump water to get down to 3,200. My pool was at 3,800 with no ill effects.

LOL! Got it, loud and clear! I’ll go get my $50.00 back!

Hello TFP Pros! I went into Leslie’s for some Liquid Chlorine and to have my salt tested as my Taylor test was all over the place. I walked out with zero LC (out of stock) and a $50 bottle of PHOSfree. I’ll start with Salt, they came back at 3,443 and my Taylor Kit is saying 3,600 (18 drops)...

So... is there any way to slow it down? Or will I just have to keep gallons of MA on hand at all times. I tested my tap and it is at 90 TA. I also retested Salt using the vertical drop method and it registered at 3,800. Thank You! I have to give my dear wife all the credit! She chose the...

Understood, will keep pulling from same location. Thank You! As far as returns I have 15 Q360 heads in the pool/spa floor that alternate through cycles all day long. I also have 6 jets in the Spa although I have that valve nearly shut and it’s just water. I only turn on the Blower when we...

Yes I am using the SpeedStir and the samples are from different locations of my pool. All fresh pulls with 20 min of each other. I would also clean the cylinder as those two reagents cause a white buildup very very quickly. Thank You for the great insight on figuring out the CYA. I will work it...

Hey Folks I just got my Taylor Salt Kit off of Amazon… it’s super inconsistent and all over the place. We switched to salt last week and I had been using strips. I added 320lbs of salt last Saturday and the Leslie’s Salt strips (repackaged AquaChek strips) have consistently registered 6.6 or...

Install was completed yesterday morning! Went out and purchased 12 bags of the Diamond Crystal Pool Salt from Home Depot. Dropped in 8 bags and brushed around. Pump has been on since yesterday afternoon mixing it all in. I unfortunately do not have the Salt Option on my TF-Pro. I will order...

Unfortunately patience is not a skill I possess. :( I think I will be able to use the same circuit to power up the IntelliConnect and remove the timer once I receive it. This will hopefully save me a trip by the electrician as I can shut-off the panel and wire it in. I think I will go with the...

Thank You AJW22: I have an IntelliConnect on order although just like my Pentair Intellichlor IC40 the pool was built and finished ahead of receiving this item. It has shown "Preparing to Ship" on Leslie's site for months. I purchased the TF-Pro Kit with Speedstir (XL Option) although I didn't...

Hello Folks! Need some support and verification here... We have arrived at our 30 day mark since our pool was finished and pumps were started. Today I had my Pool Builder come place the IntelliChlor Cell after the filter and tomorrow the electrician will come to wire up the Power Center and...

Amen... I hate it pushes dirt and won't even pickup the excess small pebbles from my StoneScapes Pebble Baja. I can't wait to bust out my 14" Pentair Vacuum Head although I am doing my best to follow the Plaster Start-Up Guide verbatim!

Lovely pool you have in your Avatar TexEdmond! Hope you get your CYA fixed! RE: IntelliChlor IC40, I ordered when pool construction began in early April and I have got NOT one word on status or updates from Pool Supply Unlimited. I walked into Leslie's yesterday and there was an IC40 sitting...

New Pool Owner here needs a little hand! Thanks to the amazing TF-Pro Test Kit and the Pool Math app (paid subscription) I am getting better but I need some help figuring out what I need to improve and how to tweak/optimize my water and chemical additions. Pool Math Log Share = PoolMath Logs...

Thank You I understand now. I don’t have any direct returns in the pool as I only have 15 BlueSquare 360 pop up heads in the floor. Do I put instead in front of a spa jet or do you recommend I put somewhere else?

When you all say socks do you mean a skimmer sock or just regular athletic socks? The CYA I got is a 5lb bag of powder not tablets.

Hello Fellow TFP Members! New pool owner here down in South Texas and I am in need of some your knowledge and support. Pool was finished on Tuesday and finished filling up this morning... kids can't wait to jump in and honestly neither can the adults! Pool is a 15x30 (~15,000 Gallons) with...

Thank You for sharing! I really like the look of it and we believe it will be a good fit for our pool build. Anyone else has more please share!

Good Day Folks! Does anyone have pictures of NPT Country Classic Travertine installed on their pool deck? We are in the build process and about to finalize travertine selection although we would like to see some quality pictures. NPT website and product catalog are extremely limited. We saw...

I appreciate the feedback and insight. Honestly I was shying away from the electric models although the HeatPump option makes sense. I will check out these options and see which I can fit into the budget.

We are a couple weeks away from starting construction on our pool here in South Texas. We are interested in adding a Propane Heater and I am looking for input based on user experience and help on determining what size I will need. Pool Dimensions: 15' x 30' Pool with 15' x 5' Sun Shelf/Baja/...
