So I'll run the pump around 12 hours - longer if the kids plan on using it that day - which is often if the weather is half decent. So 7pm - 7am. Considering the VS pump because quite a few threads as well as my dealer claim that they make up the difference in as little as the first season. If...

Hey guys, I know this gets asked a million times but wanted to get some thoughts as it pertains specifically to my pool habits. So I'm looking to replace my Pentair OptiFlo OPT-N1-1 / 227T 1HP pump - here's some stats that I found on it: Model: OPT-N1-1 / 227T 1HP PN: 357282 RPM: 3450 Volts...

Hey guys, I've decided I think I'm going to try and at least replace the bearings myself on the above pool pump. Anyone know what parts I would need/should replace while I'm in there? I'm in Ontario, Canada so any Canadian website recommendations to order parts from would be helpful as well...

Someone posted this question and answered it today so it jumped back up the list and I got my answers there. hayward super pump replacement uhh, thanks!

Wow, not even a vendor response? :)

Hi guys, Just looking for recommendations to replace my 8 year old Hayward 227T 1HP above ground pump. It squeals like crazy for about 5-10 minutes on start up and I'm concerned about the noise and increasing chance of failure. So I have an above ground 18x33 pool with a Raypack 266 heater...

Haha, will do!

Hey guys, so my pool is currently about half full - wasn't my intention but long story short it is what is. Anyway what can/should I do with this? Will it pop out if I just fill it up? Is it anything to be concerned about?

Actually the place that installed my pool advised to just use the leaf cover in the winter. Been doing that now for 7 seasons and its great. The rain/snow just melts through it but it keeps out all the big debris. Best part is come spring you just hook the return back up and top off the pool and...

Casey - with the pool empty would it not be enough to dig under each buttress individually and raise it a couple of inches? I'd like to avoid having to completely disassembly the liner if at all possible but I admit I'm struggling with how I can jack the buttress in a manner that will allow me...

Does anyone have experience doing this with my type of pool posts?

Haha, no certainly wasn't going to do that. We're getting into early fall up here so my thinking is after I drain it for the season I'll make my adjustments there when there's only a couple inches of water in the bottom.

Hi guys, Looking for advice on how to lift my sinking posts. We're coming close to the end of our season up here (Northern Ontario - Canada) and I'd like to fix this once the pool is drained for the winter. The type of pool is Atlantic - its an 18x33' I'm guessing I need to dig down to the...

Hey guys, I've stumbled upon this site a few times while investigating issues with my pool so thought I would register and ask everyone a question! :) I'm thinking about taking advantage of the remote control functionality on our Raypack 266 heater and was wondering what system(s) are out...
