How long do you have to keep the pool recirculating and keep stirring it from the bottom? 1 day, 2 days?

They suggest 2 days, but in my case it did not work. I had to replace the skimmer. There was a big leak and it cost me $1500 to fixed it, but it had to be done. I was loosing precious water here in California.

Whatever it reads when you start for the very first time would be optimal. As it filters it will build PSI and the flow will decrease. Once the PSI is 5, or 10 at most, PSI higher than it was day one, backwash and the PSI should drop back down. Depending on pool size and the amount of debris the time between backwashes will vary.

If you let the reserve tank actually drain, it takes about 2 hours to fill again. The only time we drain, is when the filters are changed.

Just buy the chlorine tabs and chlorine holder that floats in the pool. You can adjust the bottom for more or less, and you just let it float around, no worries!

Use one of each of the packets that come in your kit; in other words, use 1/2 of the kit.Your shock should take 12 hours, followed by the 2nd chemical that will allow suspended particles to fall to the bottom of your pool for easier vaccuum cleaning.Thanks.

Lol, it runs on a programmed timer. Large, small pool. As for how long it takes to fill up the bags? Depends on how dirty your pool is.

you should be fine with 6 to 8 hours. too much more than that and you start to get an algae problem.

You need chlorine tabs, chlorine shocker and test strips. Without it, your pool will start to smell in 3 days.

When I had algae on the bottom of pool, I stirred it up by brushing first (which made pool water cloudy and nasty) while pool was running, then I poured the Pool First Aid into the pool. Then let pool ran for more than 10 hours for 3 days before seeing sparkling water in the pool.

I think it run about $10 a day if you got it cranked wide open. The up side is, I and bring temp up between 8 to 10 degrees in a day. It's a 33,000 pool(20'+40') . I you were just trying to maintain a temp a $1 or 2 at best. It the best way to go. The heater is very good, it lets you know the in-coming water and the out going water temps. I would recommend putting a valve in on the in let side to chock the water down. I got that tip from the factory. Gary

Instructions say simmer 1 hr. It'll vary based upon altitude, water quality, and additions. I've never tried to rush it, and prefer to simmer longer for flavor blending.

I agree with the other answers. Mine runs for approx 20 secs on a timer. There is only a top highwater float and not a "shut off float" at the bottom. Your pit is decent sized so there is a lot of water in it circumference-wise to empty in 20 seconds. It should not matter whether there is still water in the pit and indeed you don't want the pump to be running part of the time as dry. I'd rather have a little extra water than not enough such that part of the 20 second run time is dry. 4 inches in the bottom seems just fine. When it fills again the pump will turn on again.

I have you used my air compressor and am very careful not to overinflate the pool. The air compressor fills the pool in just a few minutes.

You can set this timer to water every 6 or 12 hrs - or - every 1 day, every 2 days, every 3 days.... etc...to every 7 days. You cannot set a beginning date and ending date of one, two or three months. Because you can set how long the water runs... like 5 min or 20 min and combined with every day, or every other day - etc. I have been successful in using it to maintain my pool water level without the expense of a pool filling device that uses a float. I hope this helps you with your question. :-)

Hi, Georgia, do not worry for regular use in pool. that time is an estimated time for continuous under certain depth. you won't have an issue even using for 4 hours in the pool.

J. This is Steve over at aqua Products. This unit does have a 2-3 hour timer and like all units it has a built in program that advances the cleaner back and forth about the pool. Note: The distance it travels forward and backward is affected by the small or large pool setting on the power supply. If you have further question please feel free to call us at 1-800-845-4856

I put one in the skimmer or floater with the chlorine tablets ratio of 2 chlorine to 1 clear balance and replace evenly. MINE LASTS AT LEAST 1-2 WEEKS
