But 5% will only increase the FC by 1.1 ppm per hour. We will be using a lot more chlorine, right? I usually exchange the water with the pool too, but that means it needs to be heated up again (if I am planning to use the tub again the same day).

Thank you @mknauss and @Jimrahbe for your help. The installer came back and fixed everything. Good to go!!

Thank you. I don't think the kit came with the cable. Where can I buy it? Would this work? https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0B945PQ34/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=A14FQMU70R1AU5&psc=1

Ah thanks. Looks like it is not wired correctly. I will ask my installer. I was trying not to use the spillover since it increases the ph, and it sounds like swg also increases your ph faster than otherwise.

Hi, I have a pentair system (Intelli Flo, Easy touch) and just got the Intelli-Chlor installed. However, the kit did not come with a wire to connect the Intelli-Chlor to Easy Touch. Right now, the SWG is on the entire time, and the flow light turns red (no flow) when the pump is not running...

Thank you. I really appreciate the advice.

Yes. It's covered all the time with a 12mm solar cover.

Fremont in the East Bay

Hi All, Looking for some advice from SWG experts here. I am in the San Francisco Bay Area and have a 22K gallon gunite pool that I am planning to convert to SWG. I am looking for something that prevents algae growth without requiring me to add chlorine every day (I currently add pool chlorine...

I am in Fremont. I will also keep the probe at its current calibration, but maybe revisit in a few weeks based on how often the freeze protection triggers. Thanks

Awesome. Will keep an eye out for that. Thank you all for the help!

Will keep an eye out again to see when it turns on. Here is the screenshot from the PC app.

Oh Ok. Thanks. I don't have that.

Not sure what that is. It does say spa side remote enabled. Same thing?

Looking at the history, here is what I see. Is this because of freeze protection?

Thanks all. I just got this installed 2 weeks ago, so is in warranty. I am talking to the pool builder too. I have screen logic. I am not sure how to get to the first screen with all the circuits. I am using the screenlogic connect app. Here is a screenshot of the schedule from my pc app. I am...

Hi All, I just got my pentair easy touch system installed. On a number of days, it has turned on all circuits (Pool pump, spa pump, spa jets, waterfall, pool lights, patio lights) on its own. The only way to turn it off is to change the mode from Auto to Service (cannot turn off on the app, or...

Reviving an old topic, but we are also considering Freska limestone. Did you get it installed? How is it working out?

Hi, We have a leak in our ~40 year old pool. There is a crack that runs down the pool under the skimmer. We are in the process of replastering (actually replacing plaster with quartzite), and have gotten different advice on how to fix the leak. Our current pool builder is suggesting he will put...

Got some more clarity on the fiberglass recommendation. We have a crack in the pool and the pool builder thinks it might be structural due to settling on one side of the pool. Apparently fiberglass is more flexible in case the pool continues to settle, so will prevent against a future leak for...

Thank you all for the suggestions. Very helpful.

Thank you. We got a quote from Adams Pool. Will reach out to California's Gunite and Burkett too. Thanks

Same issue here and looking to replaster in the bay area. Please share any recommendations.

Hi all, Looking for some advice on replastering my pool. My plaster is very old at this point (probably more than 20 years). I also have a leak in the pool. Got a pool builder today who suggested fiberglass instead of plaster. He said that fiberglass has more give, so better for leaks. They...

I too am in the east bay (Fremont) and am looking for recommendations. Thanks

This is what I meant. A+B Epoxy Putty - Rezolin, LLC

Thanks for the quick response. I have someone coming again tomorrow. Which should they use, putty or marine epoxy?
