    Hayward Omnilogic Firmware Update

    Hayward replied: "It looks like the update process has stalled. Turn the equipment off and reset the breaker for 2-3 minutes, then try it again. Check to ensure the update file is on the root of the drive." I followed Hayward's advice and the update was processed successfully.

    Solar Check Valves

    Jason - Why do the panels need to drain down when not in use? Should I replace my existing 3 way valve for a "leaky" 3 way valve?

    Solar Check Valves

    Jason - Are flapper type check valves the preferred type to use for supply and return? Is the reason for a "leaky" valve and the draining capability for freezing conditions and off-season? The flow arrow should be down for the return check valve and up for the supply check valve, correct? The...

    Solar Check Valves

    Is the reason for the two check valves to keep the water in the vertical solar supply/returns line from draining?

    Solar Check Valves

    Take a look at the pix: Should there be a check valve in the supply line below the 3 way valve and a check valve in the return line above the shutoff valve?

    Solar Pipes Hammer & Shake

    The "groups" perform different functions/settings over a 5 hour period; really there are only 3 "groups". For example, one group does spillover w/o solar, one group does pool only with solar, etc...I'll try your idea of leaving a 3 minute interval of "off" time between groups. Thanx.

    Solar Pipes Hammer & Shake

    When the Hayward automation system (pro-logic) switches from one group to another group, the pump shuts off for 30 seconds and the solar valve closes; 30 seconds later the pool pump turns on and the solar valve valve opens. At that moment the vertical pipes going from the pool pad to the roof...

    HELP!!!! Installing a Hayward Ecostar SP 3400vsp

    1. Wire the Ecostar directly to your pump breakers, not the pump relays. 2. The Ecostar will operate as a variable speed pump; the communication wire will handle the integration between the Goldline controller and the Ecostar pump. 3. No other functions of the Ecostar pump will be disabled...

    Pool Test Kits In Europe - What I learned so far

    Been using the Palin Pooltest 9 for a couple years and it's outstanding; spot on. No guesswork as to what shade of color a test is and no dealing with the black dot/no black dot for CYA testing; all digital testing: FC, pH, CYA, TA, takes about 10 minutes.

    I Have a leak, I need help finding it.

    Where does the water leak out to? Is there a pipe that the valve connects to? What would cause outside water pressure to be higher than inside water pressure?

    Really confusing me though is the reference to ORP

    I've been using the Hayward Sense & Dispense system for a few years now, using ORP, and I have not had any issues. It did take a while to dial things in, but so far so good. My pool is clear and clean, chemical readings are on the money and chemical maintenance has been relatively easy.

    Pool testing device - digital preferred - advice needed

    I've been using the Palin Pooltest 9 for a few years and I am very pleased. The other test kits were too subjective for me and especially measuring CYA.

    Does anyone have suggestions on how to remove the lip/ridge of red plastic from the seat of the black body of the check valves?

    Jandy Check Valve Melting

    MA is injected about 4 feet before the check valves; there are two Jandy Neverlube 3-way valves before the check valves and before the MA injection point; the 3-way valves are just fine. As a side note, the Jandy 3-way valve is almost always closed (opens for spa and fountain) which does not...

    Jandy Check Valve Melting

    I have a Jandy check valve with the clear cover that about 1.5 years old. The spa was leaking into the pool so I took the cover off of the check valve and the red flapper is discolored and peeling but more importantly part of the red flapper seems to have melted onto the black body. There is a...
