I found that it only happens after a rain storm. i think from repeated opening of the panel that the seal is weakening and moisture is getting in. I simply taped a piece of plastic over the front portion of the heater overhanging the edge. Has not happened since so I will fabricate something a...

Yesterday I turned on the filter early morning and off to work I go. I generally leave the spa on overflow. I got home and usually venture out back, but it was so hot I decided to stay inside. later on around 7, I went out and could hear the pool heater going. I went over to look (Hayward) and...

update on issue Heater is fine and has been working since i turned this internal knob. Last weekend was at the pool store where we bought and service the pool to check my water. I happened to run into the owner and we talked a bit and then I mentioned this issue. I wanted to know if they...

Have a Hayward heater and decided to use the spa last week. The heater fan would start and you could hear the ignitor working but it would not start up. gas line outside the heater was open..... I was hoping it wouldn't be one of the boards and got a I F indication on the readout.... I called...

We have now had our pool with spill over spa for 6 years now. I pay the company that built it to open and close the pool each year. Since day 1 the spa return (the opening that puts water into the spa) had the jet taken out as it could not allow enough water into the spa to allow the system to...

What brand of test kit can I get in the Toronto area and who sells it. The current one I have does not seem to be able to give me numbers like I see posted here. Thanks

I will do a full reading tomorrow....been using the strips lately

my pool got cloudy 2 weeks ago and I am struggling to clear it. I cant seem to kill the algae although i have been back washing daily and scrubbing the liner. All my levels were in the OK range today except ph was low so I added ph plus. I keep the auto vacuum going 24/7 but tonight the water...

No it is manual...I wonder, I had one of the boards replaced last spring, maybe it is acting up again or some kid hopped the fence and turned it on.

Came home today and went out back and could hear the pool heater running. No one claims to have turned it on it is a hayward. Anyone ever here this happening before?

I had this issue last year but the heater still worked and it would go away after a few seconds. Now it sits in CE mode and either wont work at all and sits in stanby, or it will fire up and then go to stanby and continue running normally with no way of turning it off short of shutting the...

this year have had 3 dead mice so far. 3 weeks ago I come home from work and look out to the pool and see bubbles flying out of the return. Concerned that my water level was to low I raced outside to kill the filter, but found a bushy tail hanging out of the skimmer. My heart sank thinking it...

I originally thought it was the eraser but why would the line be only 1.25" and not effect below or above that area....now this line \i speak of is now about 6 feet wide and in several other areas of the pool....just strange

We have had our pool for 3 years...vinyl in ground. About a month ago I was cleaning the liner above the water line as I swam around, using a mr clean magic erase. I was not being overly aggressive and was just getting pollen and what looked like scum buildup off. Then I noticed the actual...

When we ordered our spill over spa it showed up with a light, although we had not ordered it that way, the contractor decided to hook it up for us although they were not thrilled about it My wife loved the light with the different coloured lenses, but it only lasted a few months before it...

Re: cloudy water camequick and took about 5 days to clear? w OK I see the kit and yes it sure looks a lot more extensive than anything I have seen available anywhere. I am in Canada and would like to have it shipped via us post office as if we use fed ex I am pretty sure I get hit up with...

Re: cloudy water camequick and took about 5 days to clear? w this test kit you speak of...are they just the regular test kit you buy at the poolstore or are they better and where can i get one? You speak of pollen and we have had an enormous amount of it this year so that may have been what I...

I was pretty sure I had my water in good condition and tested daily with the those paper strips you just dip in and wait 15 seconds. I know its not the best way to really know but gives me enough info as far as clorine and ph are concerned. Last weekend which was hot but not rediculously hot...

Our pool was opened last week and the filter ran for 2.5 days as we circulatated the heavy chemical dump. It is currently about 2 degrees celcius out and wonder how long do I have to run the filter each day in this type of weather if at all.

Ihad the same issue and then I did the old put the end of the hose on the jet and run water in it to force the air out , then take it out of the water and put my palm over the opening and then jam it into the skimmer opening. Sometimes I still get some air and if it lasts a little to long I...

OK now that you have my attention, tell me my alternatives? I have only owned a pool for 1.5 years. I just bought 12 packs for about $90.00..... I know I can buy a different brand at Lowes for about 3.90 but I felt it did not work as well.

This may not be the right category for this question, but it looked correct to me. Just out of curiosity how much should those small bags of shock cost?

I hd the same issue until someone on here wrote to put the end of the hose up to the jets and let the jet force all the air out, then I put my hand over the opening and then plug it into the skimmer with very little air getting in.

I am currently reading The Devils Punchbowl, by Greg Iles. Good book so far and its over 700 pages....good value lol

I always get it on my foot and it can be a real nuisanc. 3 weeks ago I got one in my thigh while tryin g to manoeuver out of a floating chair.... that was the worst!!! it took me a good 2 or 3 minutes to make the pain subside. I then got it again that night in the other thigh while sleeping...

everything looks fine with my tests although my alkalinity always seems on the high side. I dumped a pail of baking soda or what ever it is they seel at pool stores last week, but I stillget the high alkalinity readings.
