Thank you. I left it there as well. I will update this thread if I hear otherwise from Polaris support.

Thank you! I will target these numbers and add to pool math logs with testing results. This has been a great learning experience and I really appreciate your feedback and guidance in general.

No. I was hesitant to go to Leslie’s as I felt they are not reliable source of information. I called Polaris the agent said he never heard of that thing but said will call me back once he talk to his technical team.

So, couple of incidents happened after my previous reporting. On 04/20 salt was added and salt cell was turned on to 100%PB guys also added chlorine tabs inside the skimmer basket. That led chlorine to jump to 17. I kept my calm and stopped the salt cell and removed chlorine tabs. It took...

Thanks! I will wait and report back with results after couple of days.

Thanks! I added to poolmath. Should I still wait to normalize CH and TA?

Ok. I think it happened because of pool returns are half closed. Not sure how it happened but I see that the pool returns are half to 3/4 closed. Someone messed up with it. I added liquid chlorine and muriatic acid based on effects of adding calculation in pool math app. After a day, I didn’t...

Hello all, I purchased Polaris VRX IQ+ today from Leslie’s as Polaris days sale is ongoing currently in my area. I unboxed it and tried the smart cycle. It’s an impressive unit. Throughly impressed with its cleaning ability, wall, waterline cleaning. I think I found the robot I need but we will...

Good evening everyone! So, PB added salt yesterday. Salinity was around 4 after they added and I didn’t turn on the salt sell yet. However, the chemical readings have changed after they added salt with salt cell running at 0%. Not really sure what’s going on. FC - 6 TC - 6 PH - 7 TA - 40 CH...

Thank you so much for helping through this. So, here are today’s results. It rained whole day yesterday along with spillover might have increased pH. For a new pool, do I need to constantly maintain it to be under 8? I am not so worried about chlorine as it’s cloudy seems to be holding up well...

Probably I do not have any reason. I will do this test tomorrow and let you know. Thanks a lot for your guidance and help.

Thanks! I find that particular test cumbersome :). I will do that tomorrow and report the results.

Thank you all for helping with this stuff. Below are the results. So chlorine is probably at 4ppm after adding 64oz of 10% liquid chlorine. On Taylor kit, it was definitely above 3 but not too dark as 5. Probably I added little too much or my pool is not really 16k gallon pool. It is 15x30...
