    In-Floor Cleaning now blowing air

    I got lazy and decided to let my daughter's friend's mother's company start maintaining my pool. They came out the other day to clean the cartridges filters, and ever since then, nothing seems to be working right anymore. Mostly notably, the in-floor popup cleaners are now blowing air like...

    Jandy Colors Light Problem...

    So, I finally got around to pulling it out. Apparently it's not the LED version of the light, it's the halogen version. It appears at least one of my bulbs is out, which would explain why it would go dark at certain times. What is still a mystery to me, however, is why the light continues to...

    Jandy Colors Light Problem...

    Re: Jandy LED Light Problem... So, now that it's dark, I tried out some of the things you all recommended. First, I tried setting the system to SAM/SAL and Colorlogic, but to no avail. The system seemed to try and cycle through the lights, but every time it came on, they were always white. I...

    Jandy Colors Light Problem...

    Re: Jandy LED Light Problem... I'm not certain, no, but it looks like literally everything in this setup is Jandy, so I'm leaning toward yes. The color options I have on my AquaLink are the same color options I see in the Jandy manual. I can go try turning it on an off 3 times real quick to...

    Jandy Colors Light Problem...

    Re: Jandy LED Light Problem... I do not know, unfortunately. As I mentioned, I bought the house last year and all this stuff was previously installed. Is there a way I can check that easily? Also, do you know of any way to do a full reset on the light?

    Jandy Colors Light Problem...

    I have an in-ground pool equipped with a Jandy LED color-changing light. The pool equipment is all linked up to the remote control system. When I try to turn on the pool light, it never works correctly. I'll select Pool Light on the remote, and it gives a long list of colors I can choose...

    Jandy/Laars LX service help

    I was wondering if there were any experienced people on here nice enough to help me with a question in regard to my heater. I turned it on for the first time this year to get the hot tub fired up. About an hour into heating, I noticed the temperature stopped going up. I checked the display on...

    In-Floor Cleaning System Repair

    Hello all, I've been having some recent problems with my in-floor cleaning system. I have a general understanding of how they work, but I'm no expert by any means. That said, I noticed that when my in-floor system turns on, all of them are up at the same time. It's a 6-valve system, so from...

    In-Deck Chorinator with Ozone Etching Problems

    I've had some time to really study my pool and the system, so I feel comfortable posting this. The way that deck chlorinator works is at the bottom of that compartment, there is an inlet that pumps in water. The flow erodes the tablets and fills the compartment with water. That pipe you see...

    In-Deck Chorinator with Ozone Etching Problems

    Re: In-Deck Chorinator Etching Problems I'm not having problems with the ozone. I hardly use any chlorine and I have no algae problems whatsoever. The cons of ozone are grossly exaggerated. I live in Phoenix, AZ where the summers here average over 110F. I have grass and trees all around my...

    In-Deck Chorinator with Ozone Etching Problems

    It's an outdoor pool. Here are a couple pics. It's just a compartment built into the deck where you drop chlorine tabs in. As they dissolve, the liquid chlorine is automatically dispensed into the pool through some sort of siphon it seems. I really don't know anything about it, myself.

    In-Deck Chorinator with Ozone Etching Problems

    Hey All, I recently had a pool built with an ozonator as my sanitation choice. As part of the package, the builder put in a in-deck auto-chlorinator. Just drop a tab or two in there and let the Ozone do the rest... Anyway, the pool is only about a month old, and already there is etching...

    Automatic Pool Cleaner Keeps Getting Stuck

    Hey all, I recent had a pool installed, and I went with an automatic pool cleaner over popups. I have owned several houses with pools and have used both options, and I've found that an automatic pool cleaner works almost just as well as popups (save the steps), so I went with the economic...

    Unsafe to swim in a new pool before treating it?

    I tested the water with a litmus strip, and it measures about 8 on the Ph level. Is that too high to be safe, even with the bleach?
