    Proline/Goldline Valve Actuator GVA-24 Voltage

    Houston Pool Build

    After battling with the 22.5ft power line rule for a few months and finding this site later in the process, we finally started our build on the 14th. This site has been great for getting more info on the more controversial topics. We decided to go with salt despite the many warnings from some...
