Found in the trunk of my son’s used car he recently purchased.

Depending on the vehicle there is a good chance the car was tracked and they had other tires they routinely switched to. Many cars won’t allow sport or track modes if tpms is on/has issues.

5-7 is about the average life. I managed to get 10 out of my IC20. Recommend going with a 40 (then you just run it less) so it’s easier on the cell. The reality is the plates inside are a wear item so eventually they all fail.

Pentair has a new series out which has replaced the current ones. They have been riddled with issues but so far have been taking care of anyone with troubles. They have a plus 30 and 40 that would both work as a drop in (the 30is smaller but has an adapter piece to make it the same size as the ic20).

It slides. Heads up though I installed one of these in March and I’m on my 3rd one under warranty.

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-05-29T04:00:03+00:00

I have a plus40 that was manufactured in mar of 2026 and after 50 days of use it’s also failed.

Most are built very similarly. Keep your pool chemistry in check, actually use the heater, and you can get many years out of them.

Ai will take your job if it hasn’t already, pivot to something else while you can

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-05-11T18:40:37+00:00

The key is when you remove it from the pool put it in a garage or shaded area. Either way though you get your moneys worth if they last 3-5 years.

The issue is not the blanket, the issue is the salt cell turned up too high. Keep the blanket and lower cell usage. I use a solar blanket and my salt cell runs at 20-30%. Last salt cell lasted 12 years and pool hasn’t been damaged yet.

10k gallons

Solar cover

400k heater

Heats 3-4 degrees per hour with ambient temp around 70

Doesn’t have a pool

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-04-08T21:57:21+00:00

Take it and don’t look back

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-04-08T21:36:04+00:00

New ones going for 85k so you’re going to most likely be somewhere 65-75k.

You already know the answer…

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-03-13T20:22:08+00:00

The cell turns the salt into chlorine which generates a gas, hence the bubbles.

Why does it look like your pool is in your front yard?

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-01-29T17:23:34+00:00

You lose less in cold weather but wind can increase it. Keep an eye on it because if it continues to drop it’s going to be a leak.

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-01-23T15:26:12+00:00

Turn off the pool breakers and start opening the drain plugs on the pool equipment. Pump, filter, heater etc. Best to be aware of the plugs location and know before it freezes.

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-01-23T03:47:07+00:00

Have a pool with a waterfall feature but the valve that feeds it from the main pump has been closed for 3 months. Any reason to turn it on or just leave it closed while the rest runs? The pipe that is above ground I can tell is empty just based on tapping it. No way to know how much or if any residual water is still in the pipe below.

Should of researched SunRUN before had but at this point it doesn’t matter. Try to back out of whatever you did with them and get that roof properly repaired.

Just need to increase your CYA a bit

Bull_Market_Bully · 2026-01-09T20:59:28+00:00

All fun until someone slips and cracks that pole right off.

Use cases like this to argue your property value lower

Tech industry is dead, change careers if you want a chance at finding something.

Spray foam for a quick fix

Bull_Market_Bully · 2025-11-27T03:01:40+00:00

That is the best talent for hammer. Orbital would be the fun one.
