    SWG Salt Level High 9,900ppm

    TFT can't ship to Canada (I checked today) but I can ship to an address in the US (friend) and get it that way. Likely what I'll be doing. :)

    SWG Salt Level High 9,900ppm

    Update: took a water sample into Fox Pools first thing this morning to have it retested as I ran a chlorine/ph test again at home this morning at 5:30am (Rainbow Pentair Drop Test) and it was early so still dark outside so I had to read it inside under artificial light and it was tough to tell...

    SWG Salt Level High 9,900ppm

    Thanks again for all the replies. Our pool builder came by Saturday to reset the system amd see if that did anything. The salt reading went from 9,900ppm to 7,300ppm ... He also took the cell our and cleaned it. Again, this is a brand new aystem that has been running only 1 month. The SWG has...

    SWG Salt Level High 9,900ppm

    Fox Pools runs a complete analysis for everything for us. My main concern here is that I damaged the cell as perhaps a higher concentration of the salt was sucked into the skimmer and is causing the high reading, but possibly caused damage to the SWG. Although the reading was 2,800-2,850 for...

    SWG Salt Level High 9,900ppm

    Thanks Dom. Thats exactly what I thought-there is no way adding that amount would increase the salt level by 7,000ppm. And yes, that is the reading coming from the Intellichlor Diagnostics through the EadyTouch remote. The Intellichlor itself has a flashing green light indicating high salt.

    SWG Salt Level High 9,900ppm

    Hi. Completely a newbie as we just completed our pool install recently. Tested our water yesterday at Fox Pools. Needed to add Oxy Shock, Stabalizer and salt. Salt was at 3,000ppm as tested at Fox and reading on Intellichlor was 2,800ppm. Added 1/2 bag (10kg or 22lbs) as I was told to at around...

    Skimmer Cut In Wrong Spot - Can you patch Fiberglass? Intaller says yes

    Would love to leave it there but there is a tanning ledge going in that exact spot! The installer said its his fault he forgot to have the hole moved by viking and his guys proceeded to finish the cut and installed the skimmer. According to him Viking cuts 3 sides and they finish the 4th cut...

    Skimmer Cut In Wrong Spot - Can you patch Fiberglass? Intaller says yes

    Thanks Woodyp. The patch is concerning us as we worry the overal integrity of the pool has been compromised and if there is a leak down the road it won't be warrantied and we'll be on the hook to repair it but we are not responsible for the error. The builder says it will be fine and we won't...

    Skimmer Cut In Wrong Spot - Can you patch Fiberglass? Intaller says yes

    Hi everyone. We are in the process of having a Viking fiberglass pool installed. Pool was delivered today. At the end of the day after the installers had left I went out to check things out and noticed they had cut and installed the skimmer in the wrong spot. I contacted the installer...
