Hi JamesW Turns out there are 3 breakers for the pool, not the two I thought. I caught that the third breaker wasn't reset. Everything is up and running!!! I am so pumped right now. Thank you for helping.

@JamesW Thank you for your assistance. 1. I flipped around the fuse and got the power to continue. 2. I checked w/ my multimeter the volts at the pump connection and it says 4? 3. I checked w/ my multimeter (the red/black screws) at the mechanical timer and it also said 4 What is the next...

That is a bit embarrassing. We now have power running to the pump but no green power light.

ey Guys, I have been on a journey to replace my pool pump. I have the new pump installed now but my power is stopping at this fuse box thing on the right side of the picture below. Is there some way I reset or replace a fuse on this? It basically just has this plastic handle w/ some metal...

Hi Everybody, My pool pump no longer works. It has been making some louder squealing noises for quite some time and it now will not turn on and I found a bunch of water on the ground around the pump. So I have been expecting this day. I just am not sure how much pump I need for my pool. 8000...

Water is clearing up. Needs vacuumed and will do it tomorrow. ph 7.5 FC 3 TA 100 CH 250-500? Salt 800-1000? When testing these am I looking for the first color change? For example CH starts turning color at 10 drops (250) but was a darker all blue closer to 20. Salt gave a red splash with...

Thanks guys for the recommendation! The skimmer line is closest to the beachfront I would have to find a way to anchor the hose on the direct opposite side of the pool and limit the length that way.

Phew seeing my fresh fill all cloudy was a heartbreaker! Glad to hear we will be okay.

Filled water from the hose yes and we do have a high CH. Washed the SWG last night and got it set back up. I'm an idiot that then turned the pump on. The return lines started sending dirt and junk into the pool, was dark and I didn't see until a minute or two later. I should have...

Turns out my pool is not anywhere close to 12,000 gallons. More like 8,000. It took ~21 hours to fill, and I measured the hose to output 384 gallons per hour. Tons of white chunks inside of the SWG. Watching a youtube video on cleaning the swg now and will get that out of the way. After...

We bought a house last summer and enjoyed the pool through the season. I had very high CH levels all season long and decided come spring I wanted to drain and refill so that I had a fresh start. Drained the pool over this past weekend and it will finish filling by time I am out of work. I...

Hello all, I currently have an mx-8 that I purchased as a newbie pool owner. We have a beachfront entrance pool and this robot crawls up out of the water until it sucks air. I mostly just clean the pool by hand and turn on the robot when I am around to keep an eye on it. Would be nice to...

Does anybody know what level my SWG should be on, 1-5?
