I had to replace 2 lights in my pool recently. At first, they would not budge out of conduit. I thought maybe conduit had collapsed. I bought a cheap cable winch come along from Harbor Freight. I attached this to a tree across the pool from the stuck light and attached and ran rope to the...

Hayward has the Salt & Swim 3c and Jandy/Zodiac has the AquaPure Ei series. Both of these are fairly new priced considerably less than their previous models. Also replacement cells are way less as well. I've always thought the prices on SWGs to be way overpriced. If Intex can sell a unit for...

There has been a troubleshooting guide posted before called "AquaPure and PureLink Troubleshooting Manual". I tried to repost, but it is too large. Power off the unit and back on and watch the display on unit. After 3-4 minutes it will flash the fault codes. If you got 7 years of life from...

I recently did have to replace one of the swivels on the hose, but other than that it looks in good shape.

I think I have what you are looking for. Is it item R0403900? If so, I have one new in package and would be willing o sell for fair price.

My Polaris 380 is 9-10 years old. I was planning on doing spring tuneup because the gears/wheel are often getting stuck. I've had to do this about every 3 years. Well the other day it was stuck and I manually rotated wheels then toss it back in pool. The blue top frame cracked into 20...

Thought I would post a follow up and retract the kudos I gave Jandy. They sent a replacement board only it was the board for the old style power center. I emailed back and had to take pictures of the new so they would know what to send. They said they would ship new board out. 2 weeks and no...

OK emailed Jandy - Zodiac this morning. Received a response same day. Gotta say I'm impressed with their customer service. At first they offered to send new sensor. I commented that the sensor was working fine with old control panel, so not sure that was the issue. So, now they are sending...

I think only the 1400 can be controlled via Jandy controls system. The Ei series does not tie into Jandy controls - stand alone only.

I have Jandy CL580 cartridge filter system. I cleaned about 6 weeks ago and went ahead and cleaned again this morning. Surprised how dirty they were after only 6 weeks. My pressure gauge on filter had stopped working and I replaced while cleaning this morning. With clean filters, on low pump...

Pool is 25,000 gallon. I run my pump only on low for 10 hours a day. When old SWG was working at 10 hours a day and during summer, chlorine production was set at 35% - scaled back as temps dropped. I replaced 1 speed pump with 2 speed model about a year ago and I'm saving about $15/month on...

OK, went to check it this morning and saw a code 145 - too high of Salt. After first installing, it gave me a 3800 salt reading, but after a few hours it was at 3600. My pool is at 3300-3400 on salt. My old system always read a little low - I generally added about 200 to whatever reading was...

I have no error codes and old system worked fine with pump on low speed. Perhaps new system and sensor type requires a higher flow rate? Looks like I will need to contact Jandy/Zodiac on Monday.

Yes, sensor is plugged in. I will check the connection, but that connector fits on the panel connector pretty securely. Old system was when the sensor was installed in separate T connector via threaded connection. New system has sensor built into cell installed via Oring/compression...

My old Jandy SWG reached the end of cell life, so I decided to replace everything - control panel, cell, sensor. I'm getting "no flow" messages intermittently when my pump is on low speed. If I change pump to high, system stays on. My pump is a Jandy PHPM 152 (1.5HP) pump that I installed...
