I am just planning my Hayward OmniLogic installation and have come up with an interesting problem. I would like to install the Hayward OmniLogic Pool Automation System on the brick wall in my pool shed that has a natural gas pipe running on it. The natural gas pipe feeds my BBQ. I would...

This is a brilliant solution. Thank you.

I don't have a metal ladder. We just have fiberglass steps into the shallow end. We have never felt anything in terms of tingling or anything like that. The only metal that's exposed is the niche for the pool lights underwater. I don't think that it's viable to run a bonding wire from the...

I am in the process of planning and starting to replace the AquaRite SWCG and the 1HP Single Speed Jacuzzi Magnum Force pump on my pool. I have bought the Hayward OmniLogic and Hayward SP2303VSP MaxFlo Variable Speed Pump. I decided to replace the AquaRite because it has had problems with the...

I really feel for you. The first summer we had our pool was extra cold and we only got to use it about a dozen times. There isn't much joy in swimming when it's 21 degrees Celsius and windy. The kids just get cold too quickly to enjoy it. Let's hope that the weather people are wrong and you...

Hang in there. Reading your posts about the challenges and joys of having a pool has made the Canadian winter a lot easier to bare. We have not had a bad winter but it's still cold. I am sure that your pool will be awesome when you are finally done with the skimmer, new filter and plumbing...

I like the speed stir because it obviously makes the stirring easier but also because of the built in LED light. I find that I have gotten more consistent results because of the consistent lighting.

I exchanged emails with my PB and he says that they will patch the cracks. I am hoping that it will reduce the flow of water to just minor seeping. I will post some post patch photos
