    Thanks for the replies! I started w the easiest fix first which was back wash and cleaned the skimmers (pool has been neglected as it won’t stop raining) and that did the trick (flow issue)

    Is it necessary to keep the salt up in the winter?

    Here in Georgia we are about 15” OVER normal rainfall which would decrease salt levels noticeably. Also, in the Fall in the South when outside air is cold and pool water warm a lot of evaporation occurs especially if you run a spa like we do you can see the steam over the whole pool in the morning

    Losing more water in Cold Weather vs. Warm Weather

    Same thing happens here in Georgia-warmer water with much cooler temps causes evaporation. In fact, my pool this a.m. has an enormous amount of steam burning off now. I’ve noticed an increase in “leak” posts every Fall since I’ve been on TFP

    Great speaker - I just added one to my yard along with 2 AW-650's that were mounted on the pool house (have 2 JBL's) mounted too. I don't think the rock speaker is as good as mounted 650's but they are good

    It's the PS-8. It's not a light issue because pushing individual buttons does nothing so the whole display is dead

    Hayward Progic display panel issues

    Thanks guys- it was installed by previous owner (professionally done) but my guess is around 10 or so years old. I mistakenly put LED and I meant LCD display. The pumps still operate on the programmed schedule- it's just gone dark

    Hayward Progic display panel issues

    My display panel went "dark". I ran through the flow chart from Hayward and all appears fine so I assume the panel just died. Wondering if anyone else experienced this? Thx
