FWIW, my Taylo K-1766 drop test indicates the salt level is 3600 ppm. If I run the pump at 3000 rpm, the RJ45 reports salt level as 3000 ppm. If I...

    Mounting pump on a riser?

    Thanks, all. Concrete paver was my first thought, but all the ones I looked at were too thick (1.5" or more). Looking more closely today, I do see a few that are 1.25".

    How to disconnect booster pump?

    I have a Polaris PB4 booster pump that's not working. I am able to manually rotate the shaft and have replaced the capacitor, but it still only hums when I try to turn it on. I would like to bring it into the shop to get it checked out. Problem is, I'm not sure how to disconnect it. While my...

    Pls help me before I screw something up :)
