Why?

For the past month or so I've kept my Truclear at 30% output. Yesterday we had kids over for the first time so I bumped up the out put to 100%. After a minute or so got the message that low temperature or low salt displaying on my power pack. I tested my salt and the reading was right at about...

I’ve never seen my CH lower than 400 and it’s been as high as 500. But recently it’s been about 450. I’ll recheck ph tomm and add acid to lower it. I’m just shocked at how quickly the cell was full of calcium 🤷‍♂️

My CH hovers around 450. I’ve never had to add calcium. No bird cage. Full sun from 11-7 No other chems are added. kool deck

What would cause the calcium to build up on the salt cell so quickly? I literally just cleaned the cell last Wednesday and I only had 2 or 3 plates that had calcium built up. Today I went to go look at the salt cell and the calcium buildup was a lot worse. All my Chem levels are within the...

I too have the TruClear and im not understanding how you can run your pump At 1200 RPMs and still produce chlorine? My cell kicks on at 1725

Out of the two hours they were at my house this is the only truth I got from them unfortunately.

I just had two Jandy reps at my house yesterday. I specifically asked them about the output and time etc. they told me their TruClear cell puts out chlorine the entire time that the cell is on. He put the cell in a bucket of pool Water and set the control panel at 10%, it fizzed a little, then...

My water has been hovering around 90 deg. I even have a sunshade that covers about 1/3-1/2 of the pool.

I just dumped 4 gallons of 12.5% in the pool and brushed it really well. All out of options at this point. Been out for the past 18 months!

I dont have a pool cage. Why does your CYA degrade rapidly?

Everything is good on the salt end Ive passend the OCLT test with colors.. Done it a few times over the last week or so just to make sure. As far as any warranty work goes, I believe Jandy is done with me along with my builder. No one seems to GAS about customer service anymore. Heres a thread...

Salt is 3400. Ill chk the cya tomorrow and bring it up to 80 Pool was installed 2 years ago.

Jandy TruClear. Puts out 6.7 of FC in 24 hours at 100%

Alright Central FL folks... What are you keeping your CYA at for your pool? Ive been hovering around 60 ish, but with this freaking heat lately, I am strongly considering bumping that up. I feel the heat is sucking up the chlorine which I try to keep around 4-5. Tested the water the other day...

I am just north of you in Ocala. Looks like your cell produces about 3ppm of FC more than mine. WOW, cant believe you loose 7ppm during the summer Not sure what the life expectancy is my cell. How much are you supplementing your pool with chlorine? What is your FC target?

Finally warm weather. Pump was ran last night from 2030-0830 today. FC last night was 6. This morning it was 9.5. So the swg is putting out the correct chlorine it’s rated for.

Just went to test the water and the swg box said low temp 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. It’s about 58deg now. Not sure how long the swg was not producing chlorine over night for. Anyways, the FC reading was at 7.5 after “running” for 12 hours. Guess I need to run the test again tonight

Im at 5.5 of FC again. Pump is on, and cell is pushing 100%. Ill check it tomorrow morning at 7:30. If my math is correct, I should be at 8.5-9 ppm of FC..

will do!

Yes, the cell was off last night. I had the pump come on this morning for an hour to circulate the water before I tested it at 7:30. The RPM was low enough to not trigger the cell switch. Ill check the FC again after sundown. You mention put the cell at 100%. Does it need to be at 100% or can I...

OCLT is 5.5

The whole Dang thing needs replacement at under 3 years 🤦‍♂️

Just did a OCLT. Currently at 5.5 for FC. I’ll test it again tomorrow morning before sunrise and report back. I’ve had my wife confirm my CYA black dot readings and she has been on par with what I’ve seen.

Since I live in Fl I’m looking to get some feed back from other Floridians who have a SWG on their pool. My gunite pool is 16500 gallons. It gets direct sunlight for about 7-8 hours a day. During the summer last year I had to run my pump for 18 hours and my swg at 90% just to maintain around...

I have to run my cell at 80% for 20 hours a day. This maintains around 5 ppm of FC. Pool is 16k gallons.

Salt cell has been off since yesterday morning. I went from 12 PPM FC on Wed night to now a solid 6 PPM FC :whoot: Ill turn the cell on tomorrow and figure out what % I need to be at to maintain my 5-6 ppm.. Thanks Marty!

Ok I’ll do that ?

I’m adjusting to get my FC down to 5-6.. I just don’t know how a test kit can be off by 6ppm for last 11 months.

FC this morning was 11 FC tonight was 12 Salt cell was set at 70%. Pump on for 12 hours (6am -8pm) ?‍♂️ Just bumped cell to 50% and we shall see what happens tomorrow.
