I bought one from lowes that picked up quite a bit. But I didn't like the charging hook up. Actually I couldn't hook up the charger. I'll try somethin else. The pump has been running for two hours and the sand hasn't moved. So I can try again.

Yes it moves . I would prefer to not have it end up in the filter. I’m going to buy a handheld vac to supplement the robot.

Another newbie question I had my pavers power washed and sanded sealed witj polymetric sand And there is sand in the bottom of the pool that my robot can't pick up. Does that sand get sucked into the main drain and into the filter?

hi My test says to fill with pool water at the 7.5 line. So I then I would fill to 15 with tap water shake and pour water out to the 7.5 line and test normally. I assume we have different test kits? I have the Taylor 100 Pro salt Stan

Thanks for all the replies. You guys are very helpful. I sent the photos to the pool company get their take. The pool is 10 years old so I know the liner will need replacing sooner than later . I was hoping to get this summer out of it though We are having the heater replaced and I was...

I have no clue if I have liner lock. I’ll take a look tomorrow

I guess I shouldn't use my pool robot in wall mode or brush where that tear is. Would pool liner tape work to slow down/protect the tear at least? The other issues I guess I will deal with when it's time. Hopefully it will last through the summer

Oh Crud. I just bought this home with this pool. I'm a first time pool owner and am now wishing I didn't have one before even swimming in it. Thanks for the reply

Here's the other 3. What should they be seaaled with?

Another newbie question. Should this shown in the photo be sealed? The other 3 corners seem to be sealed with a white substance. Thanks.

I finally found muranic acid. I'm going to add today based the pool math app. I assume I will be adding over the course of the next few days not all in one day. I read that it takes about 30min to lower PH. Should I add more than one dosage a day? This is what I bought.

Yes 80 and 120 after multiplying the tube result by 2 Good to hear. I have been going nuts with this test and have used on bottle of the agent the past day. Thank You!

Another rookie mistake I tested the CYA inside standing under a kitchen light as it was cloudy outside when I got the 90 reading twice I tested this morning in bright sunlight and using the 50% pool and 50% tap water listed above and got a reading of 120 I kept the sample inside for about 2...

I did the CYA test with 50% pool water and 50% tap and still got 90 I 'm an idiot . I didn't see the paper with the salt test info in my kit. I was following the laminated card. So I tested the salt and got 3400- 3600. It's a bit tricky to get an exact color match. Pool math shows based on...

Thanks for the reply. I will turn off the SWG and add muriatic acid. If the water temp was higher would the pool be safe to swim in with the current numbers?

As a follow up to my original post I recived the TF-100 pro salt today without the salt strips which are on back order. Here are my results Water temp 48 degress. SGW has run at 100% the past 3 days along the pump. Both ran for 36Hrs after openeing FC-19 CC-0 Calcium Harness 150 Total...

Hi Total newbie who inherited a pool with my home purchase. My pool was opened Thursday and attached is a report of what was added. The pool company insisted I shock my pool weekly as did the prior owner which is contrary to what I have read here. Thoughts on what they added to the water...

Thanks for the reply We just purchased this house and it seems the prior owner did very little to maintain anything. My gut tells me to replace the heater since it's near the end of it life cycle. So I plan to go that route.

I put mine in the pool for the first time. I used floor only and it cleaned up everything but one leaf near a sloped wall. I assumed it would have gotten the leaf if I used auto mode Tomorrow I'll try auto mode to see how it does. It picked up a lot of fine sandy particles Over all it did a...

Greetings Newbie here My pool was opened yesterday and my heater in the subject line is not working. The pool tech said we needed the following: Bezel& keypad Display Board Intergrated Control board. Total cost 965 The prior owner had the water pressure switch replaced in 2019 Or a new...

I just received my TF-100 Pro Salt. My pool is being opened May 9th. Being a first time pool owner I will have many questions in the upcoming days about my pool once it's opened. Todays dumb question. The Pro salt comes with a weight for the speed stir. I watched the video's and the weight is...

OK Thanks. I will update my siganture with pool type. The pool waas closed when I took ownership and will know more once it's opened.

Hi New pool owner here. My pool is being opened May 9 weather permitting. Quesions: How soon after opening should I test the water. I purchased a Pro-Salt test kit. How long should I run the pump after opening? When should I turn my SWG on? Is it OK to run the heater right after opening? Thx

Hi all. I'm trying to add my salt cell to the pool math app. The label on my Hayward cell shows TurboCell-9. Pool math only shows Hayward T-9 not Turbo-9 so I'm not sure what to choose.
