@yubbie2 if you want to pay for shipping that's fine. I'll post some dimensions here when I'm at home. I had hoped someone would just take it away but it didn't go as quickly as I hoped.

It's not too late. The member who previously expressed interest has ghosted me. PM me and we can work something out.

I took this working unit out of my equipment area a few years ago when I upgraded to a ProLogic controller that operated the salt cell directly. I replaced a capacitor on the control board that had burned out and used it for a couple of years before it was made redundant. To use this you would...

I'm sure the connecting wires can be repaired, the control board is definitely toast though. The ribbon cable that connects to the display is chewed up and definitely a resistor or capacitor has scorch marks around it. From doing a little research online 12 years seems like a pretty...

I've got a 14 year old natural gas 400k BTU Hayward heater that I think has finally bit the dust. The control panel has been damaged due to rats as well as insulation chewed up and various other wires chewed. I've got bait stations outside and every time I open it to clean out a nest or a dead...

I've seen numerous threads about the lifespan of individual cartridges, but what is the general lifespan of fiberglass housing the cartridge filters? I've got a 14 year old pool, been at the house for 6 years. There are some small cracks at the base where some water is bypassing the filters...

Thanks for the info. I didn't realize that. I have a T-CELL-15 (for up to 40kGal pools) which is the largest cell size available.

That's a good point. When I was adding up everything on the circuit it came to 20A and the sustained load shouldn't be greater than 80% of the breaker's rating so I sized it up. Not that the heater and cleaner would be on at once and I didn't even end up connecting the blower. It's my...

I just upgraded my pool automation system to a ProLogic that now controls the Turbo Cell directly. If anyone wants my old Aqua Rite then they are welcome to it. I would prefer pickup in the DFW area, but if you will cover shipping I can do that. It's pretty heavy so I assume shipping won't be...

Thanks for the pics everybody. I thought I'd share mine from the finished job. There are some peculiarities that wouldn't be there if I were doing this job from scratch and I'll explain below. I'm happy with the end result. Removal of the old and installation of the new was done in one day...

@clandry4 you rock. This is very similar to what I was planning. Are those 20A breakers for each of the motors?

@macmini thanks this is great info. I was going to put everything on it's own breaker and I was trying to figure out how to do that with only 8 slots, especially with each motor taking up 2 slots. It seemed like overkill to put a 6 amp load on a 20 A breaker. In your picture there's one 240 V...

The wiring to the breakers (underneath that black cover) is the part that I want to see.

Nice. Open that panel up. I want to see inside!

My reasons for Hayward over Pentair 1) The Pentair was expensive, at least based on MSRP alone. The ProLogic was cheaper on MSRP and I ended up finding prices much lower than MSRP. 2) Pro Logic wireless controllers were cheaper and I figure if I lose or break a piece it's going to be the...

I looked very seriously into a PS-4 but the difference in cost was $400 for the main unit. The macros sound nice, but not quite worth that much. Just having a new unit is going to be a big advance from the old controller I have now. If money was not a factor I'd totally have the PS-16 with...

From my understanding from the manual the heater is controlled through a low voltage connection that does not use one of the relays. Is this not the case?

Got the new sensor and the temperature readout is still all out of whack. It'll say air temp is 114 when it's in the 60's. I've tried different combinations of unplugging each sensor and plugging the new one into the water and air inputs. I think it's time to give up on this controller. It...

I'm upgrading my Hayward 2100 control to a ProLogic PL-P-4. The control is ordered and I'm doing all my reading to get ready for the installation. It's pretty basic pool/spa setup: main pump, cleaner pump, heater, lights and blower. Does anybody have a wiring job that they are particularly...

Hayward tech support got back to me and said that on the 2100 series controller (PSC2104 = wired model PSC2106 = wireless model) the temperature sensors can be replaced with the current GLX-PC-12-KIT replacement sensor. This was quite the relief since I was going down the road of replacing the...

I have a 12 year old Hayward 2100 pool/spa control that won't give me proper temperature sensors. It started with the water temperature reading really high. We're having an ice storm and it said the water was 98 degrees. The air temp was reading correctly and as the temperature dropped it...
