The most cost effective option was Duda Diesel. 55lb of granules was $119 after shipping, came in 3 days, worked like a charm!

A little bit of both. Kids splashing around + waterfall + slide (I'm not a small dude, I make a big splash...) raise pH quite a bit. Hoping borates help! The boss/wife told me I was wasting money on boric acid since it was already crystal clear, but then also said the water is so sparkly that...

Sorry! You're right, I owe a photo update :) Bonus Dolphin shot included! There are a few spots where the liner has been stained/lightened, primarily in the deep end and along the edges in spots. Guessing this was due to previous owner neglect and maybe the swamp debris sitting for over a year.

Overdue update: this pool is SPARKLING and we are loving it. I used MA to bring the TA down to 70. CYA is at 70. CH is at 110. I'll keep FC between 5 and 10, and pH between 7.6 and 7.8. I added ~48lbs of boric acid to bring borates up to 50ppm and saw an immediate difference. Thanks all for...

However, I left the SWCG on overnight and it definitely generated. Will keep trying to get it dialed in and report back with any other issues. Thanks!

I hadn't run it for an extended period so I'm not putting any weight into it; my pool was a swamp prior to the SLAM. I believe it was around 1600.

It was just a test since 50% gave me inspect cell/check salt errors. I'm not planning to do 100% long term once I get things dialed in. Average is up to 3000 now that it has been running and generating for a while. I shut the pump off and confirmed "No Flow" illuminates.

Hey all. I am working on getting my SWCG up and running so I can start enjoying my pool season. Disclaimer: I recently bought this house and it was a heavily-neglected foreclosure, most of the pools equipment seems in good shape but I can't verify the age or use of the salt cell. Before trying...

Assuming everything else is setup correctly and functional, if I put the X10 switch back in and push the tiny button on the right side of it, is it possible my pool lights would turn on? If there is a chance of that happening, I'll probably put the X10 back in and try it out.

Unfortunately did not see this before I swapped out the X10 "switch". The back of the X10 switch matches this layout, with the two wires in the neutral slots: https://www.x10.com/cdn/shop/products/xps4-back_1_68956b27-fa38-42f3-8d17-2f9ab329a942_1100x.jpg?v=1619593259 I installed a decorator...
