    Pump Replacement 2-speed to Variable Speed Pump & Panel Upgrade Advice

    Hi @Jimrahbe, I didn't think about upsizing the HPs, great idea! Yeah, I'd like to do the same. My electric bill is over $250/mo! To address your suggestion re: Easytouch. The pump fails to switch between Hi/Lo on the assigned schedule. I'm unable to activate the Low speed using the panel...

    Worst Fear Came True! Pool half empty, water near boiling!

    Hi Scott for the info, even as dire as it seems. There are no apparent leaks anywhere on/around the pump or any exposed piping. I guess I'll have to schedule a pressure test, thanks for the suggestion. When the pool was re-done, it did pass its pressure test, so I guess I didn't think it...

    Worst Fear Came True! Pool half empty, water near boiling!

    :cry: Please help! Today, after 3 yrs of successfully building, using, maintaining (BBB) my refinished pool and deck (blood, sweat and tears), I made a startling discovery. I heard my pump running as if it had been doing so without water. I looked in the pump basket and saw water, but when I...

    Wall whale

    I bought a WW about 2 yrs ago for use in my gunite Salt Water pool. Works great, but... The screws disintegrated in less than a year. :shock: Ended up having to go out and buy high quality replacement Stainless Steel versions. :roll: Then the main body fell apart. Takeaway: Won't last long...
