I used to change my pH all the time and finally read here let it find its happy space. Mine goes up to about 7.8 and really doesn’t climb anymore so yours may want to stay around 8.0. Mine still climbs above 7.8 but takes several weeks and still never goes that high. But for the new surface...

I also get a ton of leafs and like my 360. I had a robot for 3 years until it died, it was great for getting up the small dirt but can't justify the cost for something that may break after 3 years. Plus it didn't do any better with leaf's. I was lucky and found a " used" 360 online and it looks...

Haven't been on the forum for a while. Came here hoping to erad " wow they finally made a water proof robot" but sounds like not much has changed. My Polaris is still chugging alone, doesn't get the fine dust but good enough and its repairable ;)

Mine has this adapter.

I wondered that also, only model shows the hose screwed directly into the body..I tried that and it isn't leaking so maybe I will just stay with that :)

Mine still sprays out some but in my experience the more water I can force through the insides the better it works.. I have a huge pump and have even tried cranking the pressure up but didn't help a lot. Over all I am happy, it cleans good and I can fix it if needed.. I liked the Dolphin but...

It had a 90 degree elbow and I can't get the water hose to seal..Tried a new water hose gasket and it seems to keep getting worse. Has anybody else had a similar issue or know if it requires a special washer?

Sorry have been dealing with a family emergency the last few weeks I don't run my pump at a higher RPM but divert water returns from thje spa and pool to the spa and cleaner. For me it seems to be more about volume. Mine has a built in " cleaner" fitting in the pool so was an easy installation...

You will be shocked at the junk that comes out. I use the wide spread spray and keep it moving. Also helps to have a wall to lean against. I tried it with my gas one once and it kept knocking it over :)

If you have a low power pressure washer it will get the stuck on junk out. The " don't try this at home" part is you need it to be low power and a wide spray and spray down. It can damage your filter so use it on a old spare. I bought a small electric ( $49 amazon open box deal over the winter )...

It’s a very easy installation. Also a good time to “ redo” and plumbing you don’t like. you won’t regret it, it’s not only easier then hauling jugs of bleach around but the water feels smoother

Also you usually get it cheaper if you buy over 4 if I remember. I would buy a couple extra bags also

If your pump is energy efficient just run it at the same speed longer. We have a spill over spa also and I run mine 24/7. Energy cost with newer pumps isn’t bad and I enjoy a clean pool. If you want to reduce the speed you may be able to partially close your other returns. I pull from the pool...

I was the same way at first trying to save my cell. But like others have said use it and enjoy the benefits.

Might be surprised, I won a bet showing our county water had more chlorine then my pool :)

Cell's are usually very easy to swap.

Our Walmart always shows it's in stock but never has it also. Big reason I will never do without a SWG

I agree, if I run mine at a lower speed it has an air pocket also.

I I am in Atlanta and my pool isn’t in full sun so 60 to 70 works great.

Homedepot will usually deliver for around $35 which isn’t bad because you maybe need 10 to 15 bags

How are you testing salt? Get a taylor 1766 is don’t already have one and add salt little at a time to make sure you do t get too high. Usually 24 hours is enough to mix it good and retest. You will love it once up and running, takes a few weeks to get it stable at the desired FC ( aim higher...

If you need a lot of salt for a new setup Homedepot will deliver it for $35 ( or did for me. I ordered 18 bags and drive a Honda civic so worth it. Also walmart will deliver salt if you’re a walmart + member but only get Morton not Clorox.

On the question when I would do it now so any bugs ( hopefully none ) can be worked out and ready for next year. You won’t regret getting one, imagine checking your chlorine on Monday and it’s 7.0 and going out of town for a week and coming back and it’s still 7.0

And the warranty is only good if the company backs it up and I had issues getting my Edge Cell replaced when it died early. What I have learned here is some similar systems had issues with high salt and even if they fixed it when they " make a similar" system I don't let my salt get above 3200...

I installed this one a couple months ago and so far its great. Also one of the most affordable systems offered https://www.inyopools.com/Products/44401374084372.htm

Interesting it skims off

I have seen worse stains form salt but still concerning. Our Walmart has Morton in the spring so will have to get a few bags to keep around. Those shopping carts don't push very well with 120 pds of salt in them :)

I do like how it looks like table salt and pours and dissolves fast

I tried a couple bags a couple months back since Walmart will deliver it with Walmart plus and had no issues. So thought great lets get more since we had a ton of rain and mine is low again but this time I got stains :( I have the inyo which looks a lot like the hayward so keep it close to 3000...
