    Hayward Heater Smoking and Smelling, but working..

    I leave mine uncovered over the winter. Moisture will build up under a cover even in cold weather.

    Hayward Heater Smoking and Smelling, but working..

    Tarping your heater traps moisture and most likely contributed to the corrosion.

    Filling with cover still on

    The only down side to filling with the cover still on, is that the rainwater on top of the cover will not settle in the middle to be pumped off. The rainwater will be spread out on top of the cover. Removing a cover with dirty rainwater is not something anyone wants to do for fear of spilling it...

    Aquapure 1400 Code 120

    How old is the cell? How are you testing the salt level(just relying on the display?)? Have you cleaned the flow sensor?

    Unsure about my salt testing

    I don't understand why someone in Canada can't find a salt test, IN CANADA. Doesn't the country of Canada need to test salt levels? Maybe it is cheaper for you to send a sample of your water to someone in the US to test the salt. :oops:

    Unsure about my salt testing

    You need the K-1766 Salt Test from Taylor. It is the only one I trust. I actually recalibrate my SWCG to match that salt test. It's probably the most expensive test, but it's worth it to me.

    Pool cover anchor question

    They will "blacken" over time. They are made of brass to hold up to the weather. You'll get used to them and eventually will blend in.

    Aquapure 1400 Error

    6 seasons is a win for you:party:!! Consider yourself lucky and that the cell is a consumable and will always need to be replaced in the future.

    Aren't pools always green when they are opened?

    I also believe that a solid cover is the key. But, it must be properly sealed to the deck or pool so it limits what gets in, whether that be an anchored spring loaded cover or proper water bags .

    Wanted: Dolphin Active30 Weight

    Really? a $1.99 part. Their customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Something seems fishy though, in the description it says it weighs 4oz.

    Seauto crab

    It is a battery powered robot. Looks like the app will be available sometime in May. In the meantime, let us know how you like it, and what the battery life is like.

    Wanted: Dolphin Active30 Weight

    I would contact Maytronics and show them that picture. Hopefully, you registered it, and even though it may be out of warranty, they should make it right and send you a set free. You have me worried now, as I have the same robot about the same age as yours. I guess your anode is not doing its...

    Ciblanc Stirrer eating batteries--fixed

    Is it possible you left your stirrer on and didn't realize it? Without the magnetic pill and the light in the off position, you would never know it was spinning.
