    Hayward heat pump - right for me?

    15500gal With prior one we’d keep it at a decent temp and then warm it up for weekends. Just a pool, no spa. Basically this is replacing what we had before (albeit likely a better brand and model). I think propane might be an option

    Hayward heat pump - right for me?

    Hayward W3HP21404T HeatPro 140,000 BTU Pool Heat Pump for In-Ground Pools Is this right for me? Do I need all those BTU? Or should I go with the 110K BTU? Live in warm climate. Likely to use it about 4-5 months per year.

    Heater just went.. need recommendations for new

    Sorry. What’s the difference? I have the Aquacal… pretty sure it’s a heat pump. Turn it on 24hrs before use and it heats the pool to the desired temp.

    Heater issues! Please help

    So... Update - the guy came out. The error code was FLO. Apparently there is a little tube that water doesn't flow through, but just provides pressure and it was clogged which he cleared out. Then the heater still wasn't working and it needed a new Relay. The tube is cleared, new relay is in...

    Heater issues! Please help

    Thanks for the info, how long do these systems typically last? I don't have a video, but basically it turns on and quickly goes to the error message seen above in the photo. Hard to tell if it says "FLO", or "CFO" due to the screen panel issue.

    First time replacing filter - does brand matter (much)?

    I was told to replace the filters about every 1-2 years. I try to rinse them with a hose about every 3-4 months. How do you know when a replacement is needed?

    I completely agree, but I know in life there are some things that you need good quality items and it's worth every penny and some places you can save a couple bucks with similar outcomes.
