    Help Wiring A New SWG

    Don't know but that price is a bit high. I found the exact same model for under $40.

    Equipment Pad Ideas for SWG Install

    After 16 months you'd think you would have replaced those wood blocks by now. :P

    CircuPool RJ+60 10 PSI limit?

    The SWCG should be the last item of the pool equipment going to the returns. So in this pic it would be placed where the tablet feeder is.

    Jandy Truclear Not Producing Enough Chlorine

    I guess it would be time to contact the manufacturer or where ever you got the true clear. I'm out of ideas.

    Jandy Truclear Not Producing Enough Chlorine

    Then I would imagine that your PPM should remain constant at 5 PPM if running at 80% of max output. Obviously dependent on bather load and other stuff in the pool. Did you perform an OCLT?

    Jandy Truclear Not Producing Enough Chlorine

    Is the SWCG running 24/7 as well?

    Jandy Truclear Not Producing Enough Chlorine

    I believe the true clear produces 420 g for a 32k gallon pool per 24 hours. That would be 3.18 PPM if running 100% for 24 hours. Your pool is ~ half the size of 32k gallons so the most I would say you would get would be 6.36 PPM if running for 24 hours @ 100%. Running at 80% is ~ 5 PPM though...

    Chlorine pucks or Salt water chlorine generators?

    JJ_Tex comment was to entice you to update your signature to add your pool equipment and SWCG....hence the link he provided explaining how to do that.

    Opening with new system rj30+ conversion from chlorine

    Hook up the SWCG into a timer and place into your system. Many continue to run the pump 24/7, albeit at a lower RPM...just enough so the flow is high enough for the SWCG, and you set the timer to run the SWCG during a period of time depending on how much chlorine it produces and how long it...

    Connected TRUCLEAR to iAquaLink because PB didn't

    Absolutely zero thing wrong with CAT5e cable. It's not stranded so should be more than sufficient.

    Opening with new system rj30+ conversion from chlorine

    Yes you're close to having an algae breakout so get that FC level up and hold until you complete the SLAM.

    Circupool RJ 30 SWG Replacment cell vs new system

    You state your pool volume to be 21k gallons. It is recommended that cell capacity be at least twice pool volume. This does two things. Reduces the amount of output required by the cell, increasing the life of the cell, and decreases pump run times.

    Circupool RJ 30 SWG Replacment cell vs new system

    That cell is too small for the size of pool in your sig. You should have one that is at least twice the size of the pool.

    SWCG decrease life of pool surface

    Actually, external links posted on here have the "nofollow" attribute in the link so search engines won't follow it and it doesn't raise their ranking. I've been a web developer for the past 15 years as a hobby and as a way to make "play" money but I digress. ;)...

    Swg on above ground pool

    24' round pools are about 14000 gallons depending on depth (diameter x diameter x depth x 6).

    SWCG decrease life of pool surface

    Ah good 'ole facebook. A company showed up in my feed on facecrack as a "sponsored ad" called "Waters Choice" claiming their $400/gallon of "enzymes" would reduce the need for chlorine and save money to the home owner due to less need to purchase chemicals. I read everything from "As a...

    Cold weather first!

    They're probably in hibernation mode. Should "thaw" out and return back to normal when the temperatures rise.

    Whoops forgot to change the settings in the app to SWG. Mea culpa

    Pretty sure that's what pool math told me.

    Where to set SWG at

    You need to state how long you run your pump. The jandy you have produces 18 grams of chlorine per hour at 100%. If you run your pump for 6 hours and set the jandy to 100% you will generate 108 grams. You should also state what your CYA is at, it should be around 70 - 80 for having a SWG...

    Flu/Sick = Green pool = Installing SWG this week. Any advice welcome

    There are pros and cons with everything. The flow switch is a secondary fail safe. No flow, no chlorine.

    Flu/Sick = Green pool = Installing SWG this week. Any advice welcome

    I believe the industry standard is to have the pump direct wired to electricity and using the intermatic to power the SWCG. The way you have it isn't necessarily "wrong" or "bad". I don't have a SWCG yet but do have my pump running 24/7. 2100 rpm for 8 hours and 1100 rpm for 16. Our electric...

    Flu/Sick = Green pool = Installing SWG this week. Any advice welcome

    If you hard wire your pump so it has direct electricity you can use the controller in it to tell it to come on at a certain time and off at a certain time. Then connect the SWG into the intermatic to come on an hour, or whatever, after the pump comes on and turn off and hour, or whatever...

    Where to place an swcg

    Never got around to doing it. Still using liquid and probably will for the near future.
