We aren't using an extension cord that you would use for Christmas trees. It's an outdoor one. My pool is good size . We have a fence and then a small cement walkway to our patio. The outlet is on the house. So the extension cord is only on the patio. That's enough to have the control box much...

Hmm it may have. We weren't sure why it died although it had started to act wonky with how it cleaned. We still used an extension cord. We aren't using a regular one that you would use for Christmas trees or anything.

I just had to replace my previous Dolphin which was a good boy but passed away after almost 3 years. I came here and settled on a Pentair Prowler 920 through Marina pools, spa and patio. They were awesome btw!! So we have to use an extension cord. My pool is out in the yard( where it should be)...

I don’t think it has one

That's a great idea. I did email Maytronics. I did't even think of that. I will check for a reset. I didn't see one, but I could have missed it

I have a Dolphin Triton PS that was recommended on here. I have had it for 4.5 years. It started stopping mid vacuum and now it won't work at all. So I need a replacement. I believe I got it from Doheny's. Is this still one of the most recommended vacuums? I cannot locate it on the website, so...

We ended up having it replaced since it went caput. We aren't knowledgeable with this kind of thing and had to unfortunately pay the pool company to put a new one in. Im so annoyed we had to buy another pump after two years. They left us the old motor and we can see how corroded it is around...

If I find a leak what do I do with that? Tell the pool company? Do I need another type of seal?

My husband was looking for a leak but didn’t see anything . Maybe he missed it. No the area was never submerged. Do I just have the pool company put in another motor? I’m not sure what to do.

I don’t know what unions are but will yell my husband. So we should keep the pump inside?

I don't know about the 15 or 20 amp circuit. The pump motor is pretty close to the control panel

We have not seen any evidence of a leak at all

Hi, We have a 20 x 40 in ground rectangular pool with a salt system and vinyl liner. Last year we put in a new salt system per the helpful people on here , so I am back to ask for advice. In May of 2019, our pool pump( Hayward) started making a lot of noise and burnt out. We had our pool...

You’re saying before I turn on the system get my levels correct? My only problem always seemed to be no chlorine or low chlorine. All my levels were always good. I have the correct kit and Tested often because I was always doing the chlorine tests

I do follow the Slam process. I do the overnight and it passes. Then It just comes back . I have done it so many times that I am pouring hush’s and jugs of chlorine and running it 24/7. Thy is what I meant

I have performed many . .. so if you ever need help one day, I am your girl ?. All joking aside.. thank you! I’m excited to get the correct swg system and like my pool again.

Oh yes when I was trying to beat the algae into submission, I did read about this. We open in April and close after Labor Day. Trust me, I could open it in feb and have a green swamp. We pour jugs of chlorine in and run the Dang thing 24hrs. We finally think we won and a week later womp it’s...

I cant tell you guys how happy this makes me. I am glad someone here pointed out to me that my swg system wasn't going to cut it. I am here every year fighting the algae and going through SLAM after SLAM. We had to keep our current swg on boost all the time because my chlorine levels would just...

Where it the best place to get it? From it's own website?

The RJ series requires less salt? Ok will check it out. So I probably should go with the 60. He is pretty handy. Is there any particular one that I should get? I know everyone here tends to like Circupool. I looked at the table and it seems the. Circupool has a good rating.. so I think I am...

Ohhh that's good to know! Im telling you... we hate our pool ! It is constant SLAMing and maintenance. I have the salt test kit and the big one through here. I use it so often , I could probably do it in my sleep. Is PureLine a brand?

I do have an electrician that is a good guy.. so maybe I could ask him if my husband gets wonky about doing it. We have to run the Dang thing all day and we still battle algae! It's awful

Hey TFP... I have a 20 X 40 rectangle pool. It has a 6 foot deep end and 3 foot shallow end. It is a liner. I have a Hayward filter and we just replaced our pump last year. This will be my 7th year with the pool. We open an extremely green pool every year and fight to keep the algae out. I have...

JoyfulNoise.... how hard is it to DIY? We are thinking of replacing next year. I looked at Circupools as you suggested. There is one for max if 35,000 gallons. Would that be something to consider?

Ya it is what it is right now with the swg system. I can’t upgrade at this time. So basically I’m going to have to add chlorine all the time? I’ve been battling algae so been slamming it. My manual recommends 1-3 ppm of chlorine. It in the past has held that?

I have a Breeze 320 swg. I have recently downloaded the manual after questioning my system. It seems we always have to dose our pool and even in boost, it doesn’t seem to keep up. I found out my swg requires 4000-4500ppm of salt. I have always had it at 2800 per the pool store. They were...

?. I switched pool stores because the other one always wanted to tell me I was doing it wrong. So I switched to this one. The blue jugs are very convenient . The are the typical blue jugs you find in pool stores without a label so wasn’t sure if they were pretty standard.

They told me 70% . Ok I guess I will assume 10%? He also told me to dump the whole five gallons in at once and that should take care of everything.
