So I think I figured out my problem. I am losing water through my heat exchanger, when my pool water circulates through the heater is going bad so most of my water is fouling out the heat return line that heats the exchanger

Yea will plug everything let it sit and go from there. thanks. I just would think so much water loss would be visible somewhere unless It is going into the ground?

So I have skimmers at the far end of the pool surface skimmers along the back its an older pool. I think due to my daily water loss the skimmers are sucking in air and causing the returns to foam up? All my connections on the suction side seem air tight went through them. Now how do I figure...

I have a in ground 32,000 gallon SWG play pool indoor. Salinity 3215 FCL 3.45 TCL 4.25 CYA 30 PH 7.6 CH 300. I have lots of white foamy scum coming through the filter return jets and it collects on top of the pool surface.( pics will follow). This happens on and off and I am certain the...

I read back on previous thread for this and saw there was not much opinion on them? Does anybody know if most of the SWG plumbing unions are usually the same size? I previously used circupool si series cells but was not satisfied with the chlorine production and the life of the cells.

You need to acid wash your salt cell every few months to break down build up or the cell wont last

Ok well I am going to replace the hydrostatic valve just to be sure its working correctly because it is letting in a good amount of water and we need to stay dry to resurface.

I have to just let it relieve water and cant plug it becuase the pool could pop? We just had a week of rain !

So it is normal to have to seal shut the hydrostatic valve when drained, I am assuming that water does not flow up from the valve much when pool is filled?

Hello All, I just got 40 year old indoor pool drained out as I am helping with a remodel project. The pool has recently had issues with fluctuation in water level. Some days the level will drop a full couple of inches, and other days it will keep a consistent water level. There is nothing...

I am not putting algaecide in the pool. I think it could be a lot of waste that is not oxidized. Thinking of maybe adding MPS shock after high use?

CYA 10, It is indoor pool

I have a 35K play pool running SWG circupool. Filter is a triton sand filter with multiport valve. FAC 3.2 TAC 4.4 PH 7.5 ALK 115. Every now and then I will have a problem with what looks like to be foamy scum on the pool surface. It happens usually every other week and I think the filter...

Yea figured, thanks. Looks like the shaft seal is the issue

I have a Pentair Intelliflo 3hp vs pump. The pump recently started leaking where the the wet side meets the motor, so I have a rebuild kit coming to fix it. It just started making a louder higher pitch sound than normal when running but is moving water as normal. Is it ok to run the pump like...

Thanks for the info, I like have used the TF-100 and personally like it but the current facility is commercial use and multiple bodies of water must be tested many times a day. As for the chlorine problem I shocked with 6 gallons of bleach overnight and it finally started holding chlorine...

I am testing with Lamotte color q, I realize this test kit is not very accurate but have not decided on which test kit I am going to switch over to.

So I have a 35,000 Gal indoor play pool running a SWG and a stenner pump liquid chlorine feeder. The SWG is currently down (awaiting cell replacement) so I have been using my liquichlor chemical feeder pump which was working fine the last week. Yesterday my FC/TC levels just dropped and will...

I just installed a new air relief valve on a sand filter because of a pinhole leak in the old one. For some reason when I open the new air relief valve to bleed out some air water shoots out and when I shut the valve water is still coming out. Then I shut off the pumps close the valve and...

I think that would work, Thanks for the find!

I have a pool with four surface skimmers at the far end. The covers are 2"X4" and mounted by a screw on each side. I have one that cracked on me and am trying to see if I can buy replacements anywhere. If not I will try to fabricate the part myself, which I am not wanting to do. I have...

No industrial filter sand

Yes this issue started when i switched over the sand and valve. The valve I used is plumbed exactly the same and is the same multiport valve as before, it was replaced due to a pinhole leak in the side. I am thinking the sand is not going to work or it needs more rinsing as mentioned above. FC...

So I am still not getting the clarity of water from the filter into the pool return I am used too. The pool is clear and chemically balanced and when the filter runs water back to the return it turns a little cloudy. Also when the pump stops and restarts a white cloud of water pushes through...

I will give it a try, thanks

Anyone have input on a good product or scrubber to deep clean circular blue fiberglass hot tubs with? It has been a while and looking for any suggestions/experience. Thanks:D
