One other thing. If you haven’t already done so, measure the temp on the pool return outlets. There should be a noticeable temp difference between the water coming out of the returns and the main pool water.

I have a Glacier chiller and it pulls air through the bottom screen and out of the top. I live in central SC and our humidity here is very high at night so I run mine during the day when the humidity is the lowest. My chiller will drop our pool temp 4-5 degrees which is perfect for us. It will...

Great write up! I love my glacier chiller, it works as advertised.

I think you could reach those temps running at night in a low humidity area like Az or Nv. Very unlikely in the southeast.

Benkg, I installed a glacier chiller last summer. It is very relative humidity dependent. I run mine from 8am until 7-8pm as needed. We have had a spell of high 90s temps here in SC and my pool temps reach 86-87 when air temps are in high 90s-low 100s. This is with very high humidities. I had...

I have not had any issues with salt spray with mine.

Auburn, You are correct about nighttime humidity severely limiting evaporative cooling ability. I tried the fountains you are contemplating with very limited success. I broke down last summer and bought a Glacier chiller. It is well worth it!! I don’t run mine at night due to high...

I think that’s what I’m going to do. Thank you for your response.

Thanks for the reply! My breakers run the main pool pump, a pump for a negative edge, a Polaris pump and to feed my dock power. I was wondering if I could feed the relay from the main pump breaker.

Duckcmmndr, I have been following this thread. I just had a local pool company plumb my glacier cooler, but it isn’t wired. I have two valve actuators and an auxiliary relay switch that I was going to get them to install but they showed up and plumbed the cooler while I was out of town. I am...

I second the stenner pump. I have been using one for 3 years for acid dispersion and it makes pool maintenance much easier.

jark87, I’m considering buying a glacier chiller. What was the resolution of your motor issue? Thanks, Mike

Try Critter Skimmer skimmer covers. I have used them for a year and have not had a dead frog since! I was averaging 1-2 per day. I live on a lake so frogs and toads are abundant.

I have been using it for 2 months and love it. The tech support is very good.

Second the critter skimmer!! I have had them for 3 months and have not seen a frog in my pool. Prior to the critter skimmer we would find 1-2 dead or dying frogs per day. I was skeptical and thought this was a gimmick but they do what they are advertised to do. I have an infinity edge pool and...
