I've found Optimum Pool Technologies to be great USA made filters. I purchased 4 CL460 filters last year for $170 but just checked and now they're only $150 from the link below. https://poolguysupply.com/products/opt-460-4pk?_pos=1&_sid=84116a662&_ss=r

Are you planning to continue using it for horses or are you attempting to mod it for something else (people).

Yeah cats are something else. Here’s mine:

I have been very happy with this Optimum Pool Technologies brand. Made in the USA and great quality. https://poolguysupply.com/products/opt-525-4pk-1?_pos=1&_sid=6c9ddd599&_ss=r

You're not giving us much to go on but yes you'll need some buffer solution to calibrate it. Amazon will likely have what you need. If not look on Hanna Instruments website...

Do you not have a main drain or if so was it possibly valved off? Not all pools have them but to me this is one good reason to have them. The skimmers can be 100% blocked (or valved off) but the pump can still get flow from the drain.

I feel ya Dank. Probability says you're likely a guy because 1 in 12 suffer from some form of colored blindness while only 1 in 200 women do the same. You'll need to test chlorine and pH most often. Chlorine is easy in that you're adding and counting drops until pink turns totally clear. pH...

Here’s what it looks like:

I bought the Taylor 2006C Salt first and later bought the TF Pro Salt which includes a Speed stir. TF Pro Salt is the way to go. Speed stir is a must with either but not included with 2006C. The only thing I prefer in the 2006C kit is the pH comparator.

Thank you James! If it comes down to a re-cal it doesn’t seem too complicated.

Thanks guys for the responses! I’ll raise the salinity up to 3000 or 3200 and update here.

Thanks Maddie. I’m leaning towards that plan too. I already added 40 lbs today and will recheck things tomorrow. After raising to 3000 ppm, If I get any error messages from AquaPure about high salt maybe look into the calibration procedure.

I know that these things are notoriously incorrect at reading salinity levels. Just looking for advice here. TF Pro consistently measures 2600 ppm while AquaPure measures 3400 ppm. No warning LEDs and chlorine production is working fine (only on 20% at the moment). AquaPure says salinity should...

Here’s a comparison chart I made that compares the accuracy of Leslie’s testing vs one of the test kits recommended here at TFP. Keep in mind this is the best case scenario too. Add in the variability of different employees who do not give a hoot, and it’s even worse. Take charge of your testing...

These are the exact ones I've been buying and are great. Last purchase was Nov 2024.

Thanks everyone! All of the lighting shown here with the exception of the in-pool LEDs were DIY’d and purchased at either Lowe’s, Home Depot or Costco. I also found a cool 2-zone, smart transformer on Amazon that controls the flood and spot lights around the pool. With this we use Alexa for...

Here’s a comparison of Accublue vs one of the TFP recommended kits.

Well dang. I must have misunderstood the previous posts. Thanks for the clarification.

Does this really work? Runs 24/7 and no stops? It doesn’t cut off for 5 mins?

:sneaky:... speak for yourself! :LOL:
