Got it. Upped the Swcg to 50. Added liquid chlorine as well. Pool has been crystal clear since I added liquid chlorine a week ago. Cloudiness gone. Will run at these levels and do overnight test a couple times this week to get better data and come back. Thank you.

It runs 8am-4pm

Ahh. Sorry. I’ll run the second oclt then come back. My SWG runs at 20 for 8hrs a day with the pump at 8 hrs also. It’s been at that setting for the last two weeks.

I added liquid chlorine And got my FC levels up about a week ago to 6. Tested today and I am at FC of 3. SWG set at 20. Salt level 3200. It seems my chlorine drops quickly. My pool gets full sun and. Ow the weather is warming here in FL. Any thoughts?

Seems I am getting 10 Different responses here. My SWG only runs during the day. So when I did the overnight test, it was off before and after. FC=1 CC=0 TC=1 CYA=50 (I added CYA last week according to Pool Math) If I am to add liquid chlorine to get levels back up, can you share the formula...

My numbers are the combined FC + TC. I use the TF-100 test kit. CYA is 50

Okay. I did the OCLT. Last nights water TC: 1 This Am’s water was almost 1 ( I say this because 1 drop of my R-0871 just about turned clear. I have my SWGC set at 40 for a week now which has been at 20 since I have had the pool. It seems I can’t get my chlorine up. Any advice. Should I SLAM...

hi all. I have been getting a slight bit of cloudiness to my water. All of my chemistry is in line. I was running a higher TC number since the pool was built about 9 months ago and through the winter. The cloudiness started coming on once the weather warmed, suns out, and chlorine is now around...

There is a sub panel and I’ll be here when they come

It’s sprinkler water stain. Rubs right off. It’s reclaimed water that mists over

I reached out to the builder. They will Have service come out on Monday. Again, if it’s under warranty I want them to handle. But I will surely keep everyone posted

1. I want to Be careful to not void the warranty. 2. How do I check the voltage? I do have a multimeter

Also to note, to turn on or off the heater, it seems to take me holding the button like it doesn’t want to turn off or on.. almost sputters.

UPDATE: SWG was operating fine for a couple days. Today, no display. All clean, clean filter. 4psi at 2200 rpm. Heater running fine. Pool Chemistry good. Any thoughts? Again, it’s only 6 months old.

I went ahead and tested the FC to do the overnight test. I am at 7ppm. Will test first thing in the AM. I did notice this at the water line that wipes away that had me thinking as well. And my chlorine has always been in the 8-12 range. Again with doing the sand last weekend I assumed some of...

Thanks. I’ll test water and clean filter over the next few days

2200

Cleaned the filter. I recently put new polymeric sand down on my pavers and guessing a lot of dirt must have gotten in. The filter didn’t look dirty and pressure was around 7lbs. But some nasty sludge came out. Kicked on the heater. It took a couple tries then kicked over and all seems to be...

Check the cell, clear. Here is the switch. Guessing it is closed as the heater won’t kick on either (tries to start but sputters) 1. Think it’s a bad switch or system issue (should be under warranty) 2. Do these go bad often? Cause for them closing? 3. Any way to diagnose on my own?

Hello. Noob here. I noticed my SWG turned off and has no display. When I turn on constant power it comes on and flashes ‘no flow’ and then shuts off again. My chlorine levels are good and pool looks good. Haven’t added salt for a while but last checked it was 3200. The unit is only about 7...

Thanks Jim. This helps!

I answered your question on what model, yes I have a heater. And what is considered automation?

I have a Pentair super flow VST. Heater but rarely on in the winter, I’m in Florida. Automation.. just programmable but nothing else.

I know there are many questions on this topic and weeded through many opinions. Thought I’d ask regarding my pool, even if it’s for confirmation. My pool is 7500 gallons. Stays clean. I run my Pentair pump for 8 hrs a day at 2200 rpm. It primes at 2600 for about 10 minutes. Obviously I want...

Also, for the cya test… not sure how strict the “can’t see the dot” rule is to get an accurate number…
