Yellow is not good on the main burner but it’s pretty normal for the pilot, right?

Thanks. The pilot flame is wide and yellow. I assumed the previous assembly broke down from being overheated and corrosion. The main burner flames and performance seem ok.

I’ve got a cursed raypak 407. I was so excited to get a simple atmospheric heater with no complications when I bought it but I’ve had a variety issues with animals getting in, leaking sensors causing corrosion etc. Now I’ve got it all cleaned out, everything seems to be ok, but it consumed a...

Here’s my attempt

I went ahead and ordered a new board as there was a deal comparatively at $200 shipped. I had a couple ideas to protect the new board and wanted your thoughts. As you know the solder side of the board is like 1/4” away from the steel enclosure. I though about putting some foam rubber in...

This is about one year from replacing it. First was a lizard, this time it was a frog. They are probably trying to escape the cold and something on this end of the board must be warm until it gets tingly. Anyways is it feasible to try to repair the traces on the board just for a science project?

Yes tried resetting, switching to wifi, etc. Ebay is my usual path and keeping an eye on it. They used to be alot cheaper than no. In parallel i am making an Aqualinkd interface but I am having to stretch my brain with RS485 and linux. The One touch pad would give me back up support capability...

No. I can use my Aqualink RS all button indoor control but that has limited capabilities other than on / off etc. The Antenna is dead. It has happened before and I would replace.

Its an aqualink RS. It has the B00088 blue box iaqualink wifi antenna but I always ran it wired for stability.

Its an R. I have lost my J-box(Iaqualink interface) several times to power surges likely. I know the technician generally just plugs in a onetouch to program stuff and I think that might be a good plan until I get aqualinkd or another interface for a reasonable price.

I am working on troubleshooting my Iaqualink and now left without a good way to program, adjust speeds, and schedules. It used to be easy to find odds and ends on Ebay. Now new stuff is 2-3x what I recall and used stuff is hard to come by. Does anyone know where a good place to hunt would be?

Thanks for the tip. Here is what I was thinkimg About. It’s designed to control processes or buildings but it can be mapped to do anything.

It’s disappointing how expensive these systems are and they are all home grown with clunky add ins. There’s not much more to them than is present in a irrigation controller and definitely something I could use a building automation controller to do and they are built to last 20 years or more.

I’ve got a jandy aqualink rs. I upgraded to the iaqualink but it’s a little fussy and I think lighting got the j-box and possibly the control board. My system is pool/spa goldline chlorinator Intelliflo pump Whisperflo booster Polaris pressure side Raypak digital heater 4 JVAs Is there...

RIGHT RUDDER!

I was cold and wet in the dark and didn’t have the return o ring seated. I think I resolved it. It’s leaking a little from the main o ring even with silicone but I’ve had that work itself out on its own in the past.

I suspected something was wrong with my filtration and found my manifold (Jandy 580 cartridge) was cracked. The old one was like this and replaced WIth this: I have 2 returns and 2 skimmers running and flow is normal but the pressure is sub 5 PSI which isn't right. GIven its flowing...

I've got a 406a digital nat gas heater. Its 3 years old. All of a sudden it will not come on. I pulled the panel, checked the ground, and it goes through an ignition sequence. The pilot comes on, lights, and it appears the pilot flame sensor is not relaying. After a period, the display shows...

When it stops communicating you can manually push a button to start / stop set a speed. when it’s connected I forget the message but the buttons on the pump are inactive.

4 year old 011018 it’s been mostly trouble free aside from this quirk.

For the past few months every other day or so my pump stops communicating with the Iaqualink which will keep it from running. It'll wake back up randomly. Sometimes it'll be hours but always within a day or two with no intervention. If I manually set a speed on the pump to make it run, it'll...

So after some effort I believe the Pentair spalight is incompatible with the Hayward duraniche. No real info or cross reference that I have found. A bit frustrating but I made the ASSumption they were compatible.

Ever think the hard parts done only to have the simplest thing kick you? Anyways I went to put the new lights in the niche which are the plastic Hayward buckets. On the spa, It appears I am going to have to dremel the bolt off about 1/2" as its hitting the niche. They all use a different screw...

Mine weren’t epoxied in. It’s only a leak if the pipe develops one. I only add water to the pool once or twice a year. If I have some leakage I will do that first. The installation was low drama aside from having to recruit wife/ children to assist in pulling cable while it’s cold and rainy...
