Hello All: I am in need of a new pool liner. After 14 years mine has faded and several patches. I got a quote for 27mil and 20mil, both Merlin. The 27mil was a little over $1,000 more. My question is does it it worth the extra $$? Also, they mentioned GLI vinyl pool as an option. Any thoughts...

Hello! I have a jandy 3 way valve that is leaking-I've replaced all seals and lid and its still leaks. It appears it is leaking from a "dent" in the housing (looks like it was from a screwdriver). Anyway the bottom half of the housing it buried in concrete and I don't want to rip up the concrete...

Hello all! I recently replaced two pool jandy leds lights with sunseekers led lights. Install was easy and they look great. I primarily use the Iaqualink app from my phone. Any suggestions how to operate these lights using the iaqualink app? I understand the colors dont match up with any of the...

Hello-I found a puddle of water under my pool heater. I took the top off and found that the header gaskets are leaking. Looks like this is a cheap repair and parts are available (part R0050800 but before I take the rest apart do I need/should replace anything else when I take the heat exchange...

Hi everybody: I just did a complete rebuild on my Polaris. Gears, bearings, belts, seals, wheels, etc and a new backup valve. Now, the cleaner gets stuck behind the ladder (10 years before rebuild and it never got stuck) and it seems to be focusing in the deep end of the pool. Ive messed with...

Hi TFP- Late last fall I added the iAqualink system to my pool. After the installation, my pool lights are not synchronized. One light may be red while the other is green or blue. Also, on the app, the light options do not match either of the pool lights or single spa light. If I choose...

Hi Guys: I attempted to hook up the 4 wire plug to the Jandy I-Aqualink panel to see if the Iaqualink will recognize it but I dont believe it does. Any advise on this? Can the two communicate so I can control the Salt output with the Iaqualink? Thank you! Bob

Hi Guys: I just switched over to the Iaqualink from my older PDA setup. I switch the board out and replaced all the wires in the same places. However, my solar sensor does not appear to be working. The Solar turns on when I activate it but stays on in the colder weather when it should be...

Hi All: My 9 year old PDA stopped working after I accidently left my it outside for a few weeks in the rain and sun. I put new batteries in and it wont turn on. It blinked a few times and went dead. Im thinking of replacing with the iaqualink and using my cell/ipad rather than a new pda. Looks...

Hi All: A few days ago I noticed my 3 way valve was not open to allow for flow to my solar panels. It was plenty hot out and they should have been on. A few questions. What is the best way to test the solar temp sensor? Also is there anything else that could be preventing it from opening? I...

Hi All: I installed my new aquarite last night and I wired as a 120v (jumpers moved to 1&2 and 3&4 and load 1 on 4 and load 2 on 1). I turned on the system and experienced a load pop! The breaker popped for the filter pump. I realized what I did and rewired it correctly and everything seems to...

Hi All: I have a Jandy PDA system and the backlight on my PDA stop working. Any idea how to fix this? I dont see a way to take this apart. Will Jandy fix it if I sent to them? Thank you!

Hi: I install last season a set of 10 aquatherm soloar panels on my roof. I installed the hold down straps and and clamps as instructed but both bottoms ripped of this winter. Also, the hold down strap coating ripped off. I didnt think I lived in a high wind zone but I guess I do! I used...

Hi All: I just noticed I have a dark brown/rust spot on the side of my pool wall. In fact it looks like whatever it is burned a hole in my liner. Its just one spot and a few days ago I noticed it. At first it looked kind of fuzzy and I brushed it now its stained and there is a little tear in...

Hi All: Is the Solar Sensor wire just a standard 18/2 wire that I can pick up at Lowes? I belive these wire are commonly used in security systems. I have enough wire I bght from the local solar dealer to run on the roof and about halfway to my pump but I need some more. I'll solder everything...

Hi All: I just opened my pool and learned that my polaris pb4 booster pump is leaking at both the supply port and return port. There appears to be some sort of rubber in there that looks like it has dry rotted? I am not sure how to correct this. Do I need to cut the pipes and re-glue everything...
