Great- will get the parts and give it a go next weekend. I did use the new O ring from the new valve. I think one of my screws on the valve is slighlty stripped- where that leak is coming from. Now it only leaks when the booster pump is on- so that is good. Thanks again.

So i used the original valve cover- and it was doing the leaking then I put on the new valve cover that came with the new diverter. So anything caulk or a silicone sealant come to mind might work. When walking through your replumbing I thought of one that if i come out 2 inches more from the...

So the width is different and not the height- also it was from a new 3 way valve and i took out the diverter in the valve(did buy larger part and cannibalized). I was able to finally get the diverter valve to shut- but it has to be precise. So i took off the actuator and replaced the valve in...

I had yet to do the check and ball valve replacement and trying to buy parts. So in speaking to the pool supply guy and i was asking him about the vavle replacements. He thought the the check valve probably wasnt the issue as my pool equipment is some 3-4 feet above my spa and pool. He...

I have done some digging with the various issues i am having. What it looks and sounds like is my diverter valve is not closing entirely when put into spa mode and i can hear the water going down to the pool pipe. I recently replaced the diverter valve with what i was told would replace it...

Thank you!

So the ball valve does not close all the way either- this all came with the house i bought 10 years ago. So the ball valve closes off the spa- so the water only returns to pool. I have yet to use the ball valve in the 10 years i have had it but I feel i need to have one. It would be easier...

I was thinking it would be easier to keep everything 2 inch- but wasnt sure the size of 1.5 inch was there for a reason. when the pool return is open so water goes to both pool and spa as spa has waterfall feature into pool- i was thinking it may be because the design wanted more water diverted...

I have a leaking check valve that leaks back into my pool when i run the spa. I am new to the plumbing side but think I have the right areas to make the cuts and what i need to replace. Can someone take a look and see if this looks right. The pool return is on the left side and the spa return...

sorry i am new at this- but can i take the header off from detatching the inlet/outlet access pipes as well as the 8 bolts where it attaches to the heat exchanger and just pull it out? Or will i need to cut out some plumbing pipes? Will that give me access to repair and replace parts in the...

Thank you. Will give it a shot this weekend.

My 406A has had a rattling noise in the header. It shuts itself down and I suspect the Unitherm Governor or bypass or both is the problem. I can't get the square retainer bolt out. Any suggestions? It is not in that bad of shape but had Leslie's pool come and he had a simple crescent wrench...

Wanted to check one more thing and remove the burner tray and see what the technician has done with them- and if any of the burners look like the need to be replaced. But not sure what is the correct way to disconnect the gas valve. Here are 2 pics- one right on the outside of my heater then...

do Raypak warranty company B and B pools in the bay area. my technician just wants me to buy a new heater from them. maybe the right thing but would like to have someone I know is raypak qualified to look at the heater - any suggestions from anybody. In the east bay San francisco. Thanks...

Were you able to see a picture of the flame? hope that went through. I have a Robert Shaw 7000 DERHC gas valve. Can i just dial back the gas on that? Or is that getting above my paygrade? Thanks.

In late 2020 I had my technician pull out the burner tray and clean the burners. After that is when these various problems started on the cycling and overheating i guess. Yesterday after cleaning the pilot assembly that seemed to work but I had my cover open- so cool air and oxygen were...

So it looks like it works. My flames look high and yellow more than blue. My board LED looks weak which I think is due to heat but not s

So my Flame when on is 8. earlier today i did scrub with wire brush the mounting bracket as well as the fork on the pilot. I didn't remove the tube and take it out I left it in the heater and worked around it. I also cut the green ground wire to stripped to fresh wire and screwed that direct...

Thank you. I went through the fault history and have all Main Ingitition Failures and the 3rd one was No pilot sensed. all the rest1-10 were main ignition failures. Could insulating the High LImit switches help that? I would think it would give me an HLS fault. Do you know where i can get...

Adding a little more here. I took a wire brush and cleaned the pilot assembly- the walls of as was some rust in there. The heater fired and worked for 45 minutes- got the spa up to 101 and then it started cycling again. I think maybe it is the grounding now but not sure why it would stop...
