Hello all. I haven't had any issues during winter months with algae. Now as the pool temp has gone up, 81 degrees, I noticed a couple of yellow spots today. I have kept the FC at 10 to make sure algae didn't pop up. I went on a trip and brought it up to SLAM levels and today FC is at 18. I was...

I am having water leak from the crew cap off one of my spa jets. I took it off and inspected the cap and the gasket, looked fine. I exchanged the cap on the other jet and it still leaked so the cap was not the issue. Problem started a few weeks back and don't know what may have caused it. Any...

I did a SLAM about 2 months ago and have been letting chlorine levels taper off. This morning I was doing my daily ph and chlorine test, chlorine was dark yellow and noticed some yellow spots on the corner of the steps. I brushed it and came right off. I then did the DPD test and was at 12...

I had a large bather load yesterday. Before the swim, I brought FC from 8.5 to 9. I added another 25oz afterwards to raise it another 1ppm per pool math. This morning I noticed it was cloudy and smelled funny, don't know if was ammonia or not. FC was at 7.5. I just checked CYA and it was at 50...

I was having no-flow issues with my SWG (under warranty) and the pool installers put in a Zodiac sensor indicator module, a 3x5 inch grey box beneath the control panel. Can anyone shed some knowledge on what exactly it's supposed to do? Thanks.

Hey all, need some help figuring out how much ppm chlorine my SWG produces. I have it set at 40% for 18 hours a day, Jandy 1400 producing 1.25 pounds of chlorine in a 24 hour period. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I ordered the borate test strips from tftestkits and test showed 15%. I want to add borax to my pool as recommended in other posts, 30-50. Does the baking soda add borax? If not, why did test show borates?

Hello all. Noticed pool water was getting cloudy after heavy swim load and did the overnight test last night. Last night's test was FC3, this morning FC1 turning the SWG off. Decided to start the SLAM this morning. After SLAM results: FC 30, added too much bleach initially. TA 100 PH 7.2 CYA 70...

Is it normal to get a no flow reading on the SWG every now and again, then goes to flow?

Quick question for the experts. Will I have to add bleach while using a SWG or will it produce enough to keep levels up? Water Temp: 88 Sun on pool most of the day

Hello all- I have been trying to set my percentage on the SWG so I don't have to keep raising and lowering it. All chem levels are ok, FC 4 and CYA 70. I have the SWG running at 40% for 20 hours and it might seem like a lot, I have sun on the pool for most of the day. At that rate I've...

Hello everyone, new to the forum. I've been noticing very low to no chlorine levels in my pool for a couple of weeks. Taken water samples to a couple of pool stores, CYA levels at 60 at one store, next day took to another it was at 0. Don't worry, ordered the TFT100 yesterday and will check it...

Hello everyone, new to the forum. I have a 13000 gallon pool recently built with a Jandy Aquapure 1400 SWG and a Jandy Epump 2HP pump. The pool company set it to have my pump run for 21 hours on low, 1750 and 3 hours on high, 2750. After reading through the forum, I'm thinking its excessive...
