Hey TFP...
I have a 20 X 40 rectangle pool. It has a 6 foot deep end and 3 foot shallow end. It is a liner. I have a Hayward filter and we just replaced our pump last year. This will be my 7th year with the pool. We open an extremely green pool every year and fight to keep the algae out. I have to add liquid chlorine to our pool all the time. My neighbors have pools and don't have the same algae problems as we do. We thought it might be because we have the mesh cover. But so do my neighbors. They always open to a fairly clear pool and when they have an algae issue , it's able to be taken care of. We alway have our pool at it's highest setting to produce chlorine. We have a Breeze 320.
So last year I was on these boards and someone mentioned to me that my swg system is to small for my pool. It was like a lightbulb moment. My husband always thought this since no one else has to put as much chlorine in their pool. We have come to hate the darn thing because we are always fighting the algae.
So I am purchasing the new swg system now. Someone mentioned to me Circupool 60k? Is this still a good suggestion? My husband is very handy and can do most things but I worry about doing it ourselves. We definitely we need to hire an electrician since my husband can hook up a ceiling fan or a chandelier but isn't comfortable with more intricate electrical work.
Where do I buy this? I see it on discountsaltpool.com. They have an upgrade sale so I could get SJ55 for under $1000. Is this big enough for my pool? Is there another system I should consider? I saw people mention Hayward Aquarite?
How hard would this to diy? I don't necessarily want to go to the pool stores because I think they will give me a hard time about buying such a big system lol Any advice would be appreciated although not to technical because I have no idea what I am doing. I understand the SLAM process and having the test kits .... that's about it LOL
