Recently my SWCG stopped producing chlorine. It’s less than a year old so I thought maybe it was dirty so I cleaned it although it looked very clean. I put it back in the system and it still didn't work. I then decided to clean it with an mild acid wash. Still no change. At that point I...

Well, with all the problems I’ve had with my Hayward AquaPlus controller I now have a problem I created. I was opening up the box to look at an onboard fuse I plan to replace with a lower amp circuit breaker (another issue) I accidentally touched the bottom of the board with a screwdriver. No...

I have a wire that came loose from the connector on the plug that plugs into my main circuit board at position J8. I cleared the remnants of the insulation etc but I can't get the wire to stay in the connector and make a good connection. Does anyone know what type of plug this is? I'd like to...

I was having trouble with my SWCG. I replaced it and found that it still didn't work but it had a different issue. The issue had to do with the relay in the K1 position on the pcb. I re-soldered the relay and the SWGC is working like a champ. However, when I turned the power on to check the...

I need to replace my chlorine generator but I need to verify the model number of the one I need to purchase. I have sent an email to Hayward but haven't heard back yet. My current one shows to be a t-cell-5 via the aqua plus control panel. The firmware revision on the controller is 3.00...

When my pool was installed a few years ago the pressure gauge on the filter read somewhere around 20. I was told to clean the filters after a rise of about 10 from the current baseline. I have down this but noticed that my pressure never really falls back to where it was the last time the...

I need to repair a small gash (3" x 1/2") in my plaster from a chair that was blown into the pool. Does anyone have any ideas on the best product or repair kit to use? Any bad or good experiences with any products?

I need to repair a small gash in my plaster where a chair was blown into the pool. I will need to drain water below the level of the skimmers and I’m not exactly sure how to accomplish this. I see that some folks use a submersible pump to do this. However, I’d like to use the pool pump if...

I'm concerned about my pool water for the first time in the almost 3 years we have had the pool. It's a 9300 gallon concrete pool. It has a salt water generator. After about 6 inches of rain yesterday in a 2 hour period I noticed this morning that the pool water was a light green and slightly...

:wave: My pool was completed in September of last year. Since that time I have had a high consumption of Muriatic Acid. I understand that this is normal early on but was curious when I can expect consumption to subside some? I use about 2 to 3 quarts each week. If this is normal that's...

I purchased a solar cover last September and I have not used it and it looks like I won't so I thought I would sell it. It is still wrapped up as it was shipped to me so it's in new condition. I really don't want to ship it so this would be for pickup locally only. I live in Sugar Land...

Ok. I know most peoples opinion on this cleaner but this is the one I have at the moment. I had to replace the Wall Quick Connect because the original one cracked. However, I can't get the connector inserted in the Universal Wall Fitting. It goes in the fitting but will not let me turn it...

Ok. After many months of questioning and debating if we should get a pool or not we finally decided to it. Here are a few of the construction pics so far. If you are bored and want to see more of the pics you can take a look on photobucket. http://s957.photobucket.com/albums/ae55/mpride63/

We have finally decided to purchase an in-ground gunite pool. The problem is that I have several trees in the area where the pool will be built. The pool company would of like to cut down one of the trees to give us more room. However, I'm very reluctant to do that. The trees are as follows...
