Why the FlowVis Flow Meter is the Best Investment you can Make for Your Swimming Pool

The FlowVis Flow Meter is a revolutionary flow meter for your swimming pool. A flow meter is a device used to measure the amount of water passing through your pools filtration system, usually measured in Gallons Per Minute GPM) here in the US and Liters Per Minute (LPM) in other parts of the world. Knowing you pool's exact flow rate is important if you want to maximize your energy savings and set your pool to run less each day.



Basically you need to get one cycle of water through your pool's filtration system each day. This is all of the water in the pool passing through the pool filter and then back out into the pool again. This will ensure that any bacteria or viruses are filtered out and this also makes sure the pool water stays clear and balanced. Running your pool less than one cycle per day could mean cloudy water and possibly unsafe swimming conditions. Running your pool longer than needed will result in wasted energy and a higher electric bill every month. So setting your pool to run just one cycle each day is optimal. Without a flow meter you are just guessing and estimating your pool's run time. With a flow meter you will get an exact number which in turn will allow you to save money each month and have a safe to swim pool everyday.

The FlowVis Flow Meter is an ideal product if you have a variable speed pump and want to maximize your energy savings. The FlowVis will give you the exact flow rate of your pool water so that you can set your Variable Speed Pump (VS Pump) RPM to the desired run time to get one cycle of water through your filter and back into your pool each day. Because the different RPM settings will allow more or less water to flow through the filter depending on the setting, it is really very difficult to just estimate the amount of flow at each RPM accurately. So the FlowVis Flow Meter will take the guess work out of setting your VS Pump.

The FlowVis is fairly easy to install and does not require any particular length of straight pipe in front or behind it. It can be installed anywhere on your equipment plumbing except directly in front of an In-Line 3” Tablet Chlorinator. So finding the perfect spot for the FlowVis on your pool equipment is very easy – you can pretty much install it wherever you have the space. They also sell a Retro-Fit kit that will screw right in the where your existing Jandy, Hayward or Praher Check Valve sits. Simply remove the screws and the Check Valve face and insert the FlowVis Retro-Fit right into that spot. It couldn't be easier and the FlowVis will act in the exact same way as the Check Valve you removed. It is designed as dual purpose product, it checks the pool flow and will close just like a Check Valve when the pool turns off.

Can I Use Clorox Bleach in my Pool?

Image
Regular Unscented Bleach I started doing pool service when I was 16 years old back in 1988. I took a break from the industry and did some Real Estate Investing and ran a small business for awhile. But I always loved working outdoors and so I decided to do pool service again. So I have about 15 years of practical experience in the field. My specialty has always been water chemistry as I was formally trained by an experts in the field. So I am well versed in most of the chemicals that are on the market today and I have used and tested a lot of different products. So when you hear those in the industry discourage and even slander anyone who uses bleach in their pool, you may think that it is not a product that you should use. In fact as you read this article you will find that using bleach and only bleach is a safe and smart choice. There is a lot of ignorance surrounding household bleach and the use of bleach in a swimming pool. Here is a video I made that goes in more detail on usin

Mr. Pen Non-contact Voltage Meter - Don't Get Electrocuted!

Image
One of the biggest issues you will run into with anything connected to an AC power is if that device or equipment is receiving power. In the pool service industry, this often is the case when you find that a pool pump won’t turn on. Or if a pool timer doesn't on, is it receiving power? Also for repairs with so many breakers being unmarked, how do you know you turned off the right breaker. Bottom line, a non-contact detector like the Mr. Pen is an easy way to see if power is going to the equipment/device and the line is active. A non-contact voltage detector is just that. You don’t need to make contact with the line like with a Multimeter. Plus you don’t need to adjust any settings or knobs to get a voltage reading. Simply hold the Mr. Pen over a cord or wire whip and if there is AC power a red light will turn on and an audible beep will come out of the device. A very easy way to tell if power or a current is present.  To order: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092LFYTG5?&_encoding=UT
