So we have a cracked union with our salt cell. Where do I get a new one to replace it? Does it have to be specific to the Jandy PLC 1400? Just found it tonight, so shut down the pump. (Was running pump at night to cool pool off through solar, so will have to figure this out in the morning...

We opened our 8 year old inground pool today and unfortunately found algae and leave stains for the first time ever--on sun shelf and steps. After testing the water, we decided we needed to drain some as our calcium hardness was up to 550 (kept creeping up every year). So we are draining half...

We're having quite a dilemna with how our concrete turned out after sealing. We have colored concrete and our PB used diluted muriatic acid (he said it was diluted properly) before applying the DuraSeal. As you can see in these pictures it looks like something was spilled on the concrete...

Hi! I was wondering if others have this set up with the Intelliflow VS 3050 and Polaris ATV---at what speed are you running the Polaris? Thanks!

Hi! New pool owner here with question on pump and timer....our PB doesn't seem to use many of these pumps and is putting this combination together. Will this mechanical timer work with this pump? Kudos to this site and all you participate in it---you ROCK! Thank you for your time and...
