My pool had been neglected for about 6 months due to various equipment and pool company issues. Trying to turn it around now. After shocking , the water has cleared a bit and I see stuff at the bottom, leaves and dead algae etc. whats the best way to remove that? I dont own a pool vacuum. I have...

Thanks. Its $30 on the tftestkit website. I have the tf100 test kit. Does it include the FAS/DPD? Or do I hAve to order that separately?

Can you send a link to speedstir. No idea what that is

I have the same question. I live in Austin, Tx. Have a 15k gallons salt pool. Any places where i can get that high strength shock that pool companies use?

Thanks for the responses, yes I have ordered that pentair manifold on amazon for $75. And I discovered a way to run the pump and polaris cleaner while the filter is open. I turned the valve to circulate mode.

I understand that you cannot give me legal advice. I am thinking of not paying him the $275. Because he did not follow the proper procedure to turn around a pool. He shocked it with out circulating the water, he should have cleaned and installed the new manifold in the filter before starting the...

He dropped 15 pounds of shock on a Wednesday and then came back 5 days later and dropped another 5 pounds and brushed. The pool turned from dark green to aquamarine, still very cloudy. it stayed aquamarine only for half a day, next day it went to a light green. His written estimate was $95 for...

Thanks for your response Texas Splash. DIY is best way to avoid these incompetent scam sters. Unfortunately not everybody has the time for managing pool on thier own. I just like to hear from others here if a pool turnaround (aka shock SLAM) can even be done without running the pump. I am...

My pool was very green. And I did not have the time to turn it into blue, hence hired a pool company. Agreed to an estimate of $275 to turn-around the pool and $95 for DE filter clean. The guy showed up when nobody was home, went ahead and dropped 15 pounds of shock in the pool and cleaned the...

Thanks James. I trust you. I just placed an order for the omron relay using the link you shared from Amazon. I will call Jandy when they open tomorrow to find out which upgrade kit to use for the circuit board, because the current one is several years old and those buttons stick sometimes. Also...

I opened the box this morning. I see four relays in there, looks like they are all being used. I see wires on input and output of each relay. Looks like i need to purchase a new relay. Also, couldn’t locate a part number for the entire controller board. I will have to remove one of the relays...

Thanks for the part number of the relay and the link to the video. Very helpful. If i have to upgrade the system, so i can program/control my pump, heater, spa through a smartphone, what should i do? If i replace the motherboard with this Zodiac R0468501 Bezel Upgrade Replacement Kit for Zodiac...

I think this is a Jandy RS8, I cannot see a model or part number for it.

I cannot turn off the pump after going into service mode. The pump continues to run. The only way I can turn it off is by flipping the breaker switches to OFF.

I am trying to diagnose a problem. My pool filter pump is continuously running. I suspect the relay might need replacing. In order to find the compatible relay, i need to determine the part number of my jandy controller, see picture attached. I have a pool, spa , light, blower and propane heater...

Its not an easy pad to understand from pics....I inherited this from previous owner of home

Thanks for the responses. Posting pics so u can get a better idea

Yes, the spa is circulated/chlorinated with the pool. The water flows out of the spa and drops into pool

I have a salt pool with DE filter. I run the filter everyday for 7 hours pool is clear, but lots of green algae in the spa. Its been around for 3 weeks now, brushing and running filter pump is not clearing the spa. Some of the algae stuck to the bottom of spa turned black, i suspect it is due to...

I was under the impression salt level varies. My swg states if salt level drops below 3000 then it stops generating chlorine. Hence i am trying to find a way to see what the swg shows in its display inside without having to go outside to my pool equipment pad

I got a new aquarite goldline SWG kit installed. But i dont see the salt level shown on the controller unit inside my house. It shows temp fine. How to make it show salt level , so i dont have to go see it on the outside SWG display. Below is a picture of my indoor controller

Thanks for all the responses. I am all set now.

Its not a rental, I live here. The heater is out in the open in the side yard, providing easy access to kids walking by, i have two and my neighbor has 4 kids all under the age of 10. How do i make this a 3 wire setup, i think i have 3 wire coming from the controller, the installer chose to use...

I was able to set different temps for pool and spa from the inside unit and the heater worked well. Thank you. However, the buttons on the heater unit still worked though i had the main controller in 'Auto' mode ?? Is there a way to disable the temp high low buttons on the heater unit ? I want...
