I really just want to know what the two small black wires are for in the electrical box. They don’t appear to be wired to anything. Can they be removed or do they stay there when I connect the cable wires?

No it does not look used and there is no sealant in the threads. It’s a brand new pump assembly just looks different than the old broken one.

I had to replace my .75Hp Hayward super pump. I received a .85Hp Hayward super pump with a 10ft lift. I was not aware this was coming with the pump can I use this or should I return it for what I had before. Also in the electrical area there are two small black wires that were not on the old...

I checked my fill water (well water) and these are the results pH=8.0(or higher) TA=130. Any thoughts how this might affect the chemistry of my pool? Thanks!

The water is crystal clear. Ok thanks for the advice.

Hello I thought I would post my recent test results and what I did to adjust to make sure I am on the right track. I use the pool math calculator and it makes this very easy. Thanks! FC=3.5 added 25oz of 12.5% FC=6 CC=0.0 pH=8.0 added 22oz of dry acid pH=7.4 TA=120 CH=120 CYA=50 WATER TEMP 75

Ok I am assuming that because nobody is answering me that this is a stupid question. I should know that sodium bisulphate is dry acid and it is used to lower PH.

Is it ok to use sodium bisulphate to lower the Ph? I have 3 lbs left over from the previous owners. Thanks!

Thanks we will be swimming today finally getting warm enough here in VT.

Vacation is 2 weeks don't have an opaque cover. I think I have someone that can add bleach. This forum is great and thanks for the advice. I do have another question. Suds are forming when the kiddos are splashing around. I used an algaecide polyquat 60 when opening. The pool store said could...

Hi! I'm looking for some advice when it comes to chlorinating when going on vacation. I do not have an auto chlorinator and throwing pucks in the skimmer is going to drive my CYA up. I would rather not come home to a green lagoon. Thanks for any suggestions and advice!

I checked the FC first thing this morning and these are the results last night FC was 5.4. Should I be concerned with at 0.6 loss overnight? Thanks! FC=4.8 CC=0.2

Will do! Thanks woodyp

Not mean or green right now. The pool is crystal clear the green was from last year.

I am a fairly new pool owner bought home last year and never owned a pool before. I stumbled my was through the summer luckily only having one issue with algae. I was doing what everyone told me to throw a 3" puck in the skimmer and shock once a week and everything will be good. I had no idea...
