Dang, I still haven't been able to get in touch with them. Did you do anything special to facilitate that call back?

I've been calling at various times for the better part of two weeks. I've also left a couple of messages and an email. No luck in getting in touch with them so far. Anyone have an alternative to Marina?

Those joints are called swivels and you can buy replacements. Here is one that is available on Amazon.

Re: iAqualink aux 4 thru 7 lights showing "on" on the in house panel Thanks for the great pic. I'm considering upgrading to iAqualink and have an inside controller that I'd like to keep using.

We built a SWG pool that we had for 7 years before moving to our current house in which we use chlorine. In the current pool, I added a Stenner pump with a 30-gallon tank. We have limestone as the coping and as the pool decking, so a SWG was not an option. My observations: * The SWG is...

I change my tube every year, too. In addition, I added a flow indicator so that I can easily tell if there is an issue.

We had Pebbletec in our last pool. It was great in many ways, but it tended to tear up my feet.

Where did you purchase?

Last year we added an SR Smith Cyclone (in the Sandstone color) to our existing pool. It's very sturdy and a lot of fun. We were able to tie into the existing pool plumbing.

I agree about connecting the slide water source to the pump. We were able to connect ours to the 'water feature' plumbing, which makes it very convenient to turn on only when needed. We were able to do the install mostly ourselves (we had our stone mason build a platform for the rear / steps...

When we looked at stone in Austin, the price per pound was just about equal for Colorado and Oklahoma flagstone. Here's a link to a pricelist from the Dallas area that shows them to be exactly equal: http://www.martinstone.net/categories.php?cat=10 Here's a link to a pricelist from the Fort...

This is the exact pump that I ordered from US Water Systems- Stenner 45MPHP22 Single Head Fixed Output High Pressure Pump 1/4" UV Black Tubing 120V 60Hz 30 Gallon UV Gray (Includes Rain Roof) I use this outdoor timer that I bought from Amazon to run it. I used the injection point from the...

Sorry that I'm late to this thread. We did ISR with our twins when they were 9-months old and again a year later (refresher course). It absolutely worked for them. Even at 9 months, they could fall in fully clothed, flip over and cry until help came. Even better, by the end of their...

I've had my share of problems with my Jandy LXi. When it finally dies, I'll be replacing with another brand.

I had some of the same symptoms as you with my 7-yr-old Polaris 280. I purchased a rebuild kit and a new backup valve. It still wasn't working like it used to. I noticed that I had a lot of water coming out of the pressure relief valve in the hose and read that someone had luck replacing the...
