    SWG for Pool in a desert climate

    Hi all - first post on TFP! We live in Tucson, Arizona, and are in the process of finalizing our pool-build agreement (in other words, nothing has been dug yet). We are first-time pool owners and have a lot to learn about owning/operating a pool. For context, we're planning to build a 12'x38'...

    RJ60+ Plumbing

    I bought a RJ60+ SWG and looking for the best placement. Any ideas would be appreciated. My understanding I need 20 inches of straight pipe or I could do vertical as I have a variable pump.

    Where to install SWG?

    I'm new to the forum, but have already learned so much. Been a pool owner for a few years now, but it wasn't until last year that we got fed up with the pool guy not doing a good enough job so this is our first fullbsummer taking things into our own hands. We just completed our first SLAM and...

    Not enough flow for SWG

    Looking to add SWG to my 32K GA inground pool - probably Circupool Universal 55. I've got a power limitation because everything is 110V. I can't support the required SWG amperage when my two-speed pump is on high. (Pulling new wires is not feasible either.) At low setting, I'm probably...

    New guy's first question

    Ok, I'm sort of lost. A lot of chem talk. A whole lot of good information to absorb. I'm posting some new guy thoughts and a few questions that perhaps should be different threads? I will start a SWG thread regarding one such question. If I am doing something procedurally wrong, please let...
