25.01.2022 Pool Temperature Update Positive news - since a parameter adjustment we made Friday, there has been an increase in the temperature trend-lines for both pools.

The red heated water symbol in the middle of the pools in the 1st photo is what we like to see! Thanks for your patience - The Swirl Team
