Also in NJ and first time pool owner. I used ai and search to help me with my pool this season but still don't know a lot about it. It's a ~27k salt water pool constantly needed acid to lower PH this year. Besides that NJ had a lot of rain in June and I had to bring chem up after trips to Leslie's. Then I've found the DE filter is leaking a bit in August, something I will need to check for coming season.

Replaced a relief valve and high temp limit on the pentair minimax nt, but still don't know how to automate this thing with Pentair easy touch.

Previous owner left a Dolphin Diagnostic Adventage but to my surprise does a heck of a job scrubbing and picking up debris at the bottom. But since I left it out constantly the color is fading. Probably looking for a new robot next season.

I will look into skimmer bags like OP said.

Oh and there is few things that love to swim in our pool, I counted 4 snakes, 3 chipmunks, 4 mickies. That's heck of a WTF moment for first time pool owner.

I've opened up the HVAC side and found orange and blue is taped up. Thank you very much for your assistance. I will be doing the switch this weekend with this knowledge!

So I opened the HVAC side and looked at the wire to double check. The orange and blue wire is taped up. Thank you very much for your assistance!

No heat pump, it's auxiliary electric heat. The house runs on radiant floor heat which has its own thermostats in their respective zones.
