Well I ended up diving down and had no leak in the drain, which I am glad - also I do not have a hydrostatic valve so learned something. I found one small knick on the sidewall and patched it so will monitor now

Good to know, just had never seen that many and all in and around the drain was odd. Any idea on if hydrostatic valves are universal or how do you identify the kind you need, if this is the issue?

I have a very slow leak in my pool, that I have isolated to the drain and/or deep liner. My theory is I have a hydrostatic valve that is stuck open (pool is 9.5' deep so possible to have one in a vinyl?) because water is draining to a certain level and then immediately stopping (not dependent...

Hello - I recently had a snag in my cover that tore the webbing and exposed the rope and the rope now binds on the on deck track so the cover falls off the rail. If I could secure the rope in the webbing it would at least keep it on track. Curious if anyone knows or has tried a temporary fix...

I am not certain because all the literature and parts breakdowns I see do not look like the one I have. Part number on filter is 140210. I tried to put jb on it to slow it down but didn’t do much. Here is my top.

sorry it is a tr100 not sure why I said tr60

I do plan on getting a tf gauge I read on here to prevent the gauge from failing so quickly. Desperate times called for desperate measures and I got one at Lowe’s. Thing is already corroded only half a summer in from leak. Leak is very mild so will be fine for a bit. Anyone changed an air...

I installed a new gauge on my newish tr100 and must have put too much Teflon on because it split the plastic air bleed assembly like nothing. I am going to replace it but what are tricks? Should I have skipped Teflon? The oem one had Teflon installed on it (I thought) Is there a brass/metal...

What kind of box do you mount that in? I assume a single gang but is it deep? Can’t find great pictures on it.

I have a cover pools controller with a key and the thing is wearing out. The key is broken off and it is becoming very hard to turn. I have taken the key to 3 key places and no one can make a key. One did make one that works but it a bit rough so don’t use it unless emergency. I got a price...

Water cleared up overnight. Fc down to 3 so back to 24. Tested cya again to verify and am not getting any.. very odd bc I added 10lbs a week or 2ago and it was reading 50 a few days ago.

Ok good to know. Also cc is .5

I have it but never used it. I think I am slightly colorblind and it is hard for me to tell color matching tests.. wife and I see 2 different colors. Will have to try it tomorrow in daylight

Ok I added way more to get over hump and added 8 bottles based off my made up math and am at 25 now so I guess I will see what it is in am and how much it clears. This pump moves some serious water and hoping this filter is huge upgrade. Oversized it as much as I could

Yes I tested my cya 3 days ago. My swg was not generating after I installed pump. They said it was phosphates or dirty cell. I cleaned cell (didn’t look scaled) but salt readings went from 3300 to 3600 so must have been some scale. I currently have swg off and adding liquid chlorine now...

Hello everyone - I installed a pentair vsf and a new pentair tr100 sand filter and while everything was down for the 3 unexpected days it took my pool went murky and now I can’t raise fc. I added 5 bottles of 10% and fc read 3 (previously zero). I added 8 more jugs a few hours later and now I...

unfortunately I had everything removed and every single pool store was out of them and pentair told me a standard male adapter works fine and the high temp fittings are not required. I guess it would be best to order and install these!

I have oatey great white. I assume that is type of sealant you are talking about? Was not sure if that was ok to use with motor housing thank you

Installed new intelliflo and got small leak at the discharge thread. I used magic lube red on thread and hand tightened and it bottomed out right when it got tight. Wondering if my fitting is defective and short by a thread or do I need something else?

I plumbed in a new vsp and filter as well as new jandy valves. When I installed the jandy valve that connects to the pump via a union I guess I did not have the union connected so the valve is tilted ever so slightly which causes the union to be down 10 degrees. Luckily this all connects to abs...

Also it could be black poly pipe I am told but still need barb fittings but not sure how to tell if abs or black poly?

Hello - I am redoing my pool pad with new equipment and plumbing. While I am doing that I am upgrading to 2” pipe. I under stand you need a barb fitting with hose clamps to transition from abs to pvc but I am having a heck of a time finding this fitting to even order it. Any one have ideas or...
