Corrosion can present a problem below 7.0. As the pH falls below 7.2, chlorine become increasingly more aggressive and irritating. Depending upon the type of pool vinyl lined or masonry - corrosive low pH conditions can cause surface etching, liner wrinkling and equipment damage. A pH of 7.2-7.6, helps assure bather comfort, allows effective sanitizing and helps avoid corrosion.
What else can I help you with?
How do you flush out a laars xe pool heater if you don't seem to be getting a good flow through the heater?
The problem is not the heater. When was the last time that you cleaned the pool filter? Low or no water flow - no heat. Low flow = dirty filter or plugged pump or skimmer baskets. Ken
Would low r22 gas in Maxtemp model 36 pool heater cause heater to quit?
yes it will shut down. the low pressure switch will shut it down.
How can I ensure my swimming pool is protected from freezing temperatures with a pool freeze protection system?
To protect your swimming pool from freezing temperatures, you can install a pool freeze protection system. This system typically includes a sensor that detects low temperatures and activates a heater to keep the water temperature above freezing. This helps prevent damage to the pool and its equipment during cold weather.
Is a 7' ceiling too low for a pool table?
no as long as you don't have extremely pool playing friends
Does a low car battery affect the heater?
I disagree. I was having issues with my heater taking a long time to heat up. I had to have my battery replaced and my heater functioned normally after that.
How much does an electric pool heater run?
Pool electric heat pump prices differ according to the size of the heat pump and the services offered. Pool heat pump prices range between $2500 at the low end, and $4800 on the high end.
What could be the problem if a aqua-cal pool heater does not heat?
If an Aqua-Cal pool heater is not heating, it could be due to several issues. Common problems include a malfunctioning thermostat, clogged filters, or low water flow, which can prevent the heater from operating effectively. Additionally, check for any error codes on the control panel, as these can indicate specific issues. Lastly, ensure that the heater is receiving power and that the electrical connections are secure.
Natural gas pool heater and am converting pool to salt What components do you need to add to the heater to make it salt resistant?
You don't need to add anything. The corrosive effects of chlorine are worse then that of salt anyway. so all you are doing is adding a very low concentration of salt to to the chlorine that would have been there anyway.
Will your deck support your above ground pool?
it depends on how big it is,if you have anything else on the deck,hoe low it is to the ground,how long you have had the deck, and how big the pool is!hope this helped!
What causes your swimming pool slats to turn green?
Do you mean the elements inside the filter tank? Your problem is most likely found in the way in which you treat the pool water. My guess is that you are constantly in an acedic condition meaning that you are adding way too much pool acid to the pool. Your pH and Total Alkalinity are way out of specs. You should probably consult a pool service to correct the situation and advise you as to proper chemical maintenance. Under these conditions your heater will be short lived and you can expect to have to replace the heater in the not distant future. With a low pH you can expect a short life from your pool and it's equipment.
Will normal chlorine levels in a swimming pool damage copper piping in a pool heater?
Low pH causes more damage than chlorine on copper plumbing. Nonetheless, high chlorine levels, sulfur compounds, metal scavengers and the high salt levels from the spent chemicals are all erosive to copper piping. Flow velocity is also a key factor in determining the rate of erosion. At 7gpm expect no more than 10 years life for 1" type K (very heavy) copper, 5 years or less for type M (typical low budget) copper. Copper pipe is not recommended for pool plumbing. Cupronickel alloys that do not contan zinc or tin are corrosion resistant in pool water, as are 300 and 400 series stainless steels, some more so than others.
2000 Malibu overheats but no heat from heater?
You are probably very low on coolant. If so you have a leak somewhere. Have it check by a mechanic now before you damage the engine if you haven't already.
