Hey, I do not need this forum often, but when I do I get great response. Had a pool heater installed in December, which included a check valve between heater and SWG. For whatever reason, hoping to get some suggestions, after the filter pump stops, the water in the salt cell slowly goes down...

Fortunately I was in my backyard when this happened. Heard a pop, then noticed a geyser coming out of my pool equipment area. I had 4-5" of water around the enclosure before I could hit the circuit breakers. The top closure dome with pressure guage of the 24" Hayward sand filter had blown off. I...

Last Nov, I had my 4' to 7' deep, 12'x24' plaster pool renovated to a 3.8' deep x 12'x24' pebblesheen pool. Approx gals went from 12.2k to 8.4k. right now pool is coming alive with winter temp of 49 leaving for 67 and rising every day. Running Nat Gas to equipment area is cost prohibitive, so I...

Recently had Filter pump 1 hp motor replaced with a 2 speed 1hp motor. I have been adjusting the speeds and think I have it the way I need it and the way it will help lower the electric bill. Attached file is what I have set the run times for (summer ATT) and for the winter when temps drop. I...

First time pool owner of just over a year (purchased a house with a 10 year old pool). I have been managing/monitoring my pool for a year now and it seems like I am missing something (or am I). My "pool-guy" tells me about my chlorine and PH levels (once a week), and I add Chlorine (increase SWG...

I have a Paddock IG pool, 12.5k gal, has five returns. Two on deep end, one each side and one by steps in shallow end. The return right in front of the drain basket is not returning. The eyeball and lock ring are off to make sure it was not the eyeball. Nothing is coming out. ?? The return by...
