    PSV valve O rings - lube or no lube

    Hayward PSV3S2 3-way diverter valve - I am replacing the O rings - PSXVZ2A - lube or no lube on the new rings? I used to put lube on my pump cover when cleaning - my pool guy said not to bother - cleaning it with water works just fine for that one. I see one YouTube video about PSV valves...

    Hayward Tristar VS pumps low temperature questions

    Tnx, service mode is a good idea. So, the pump has an option to enable or disable "low temperature operation" - like step 13 at this link...

    Hayward Tristar VS pumps low temperature questions

    I can't find the answers in the manual or on the web: What is the pump counter counting in "low temperature operation, press resume to cancel" It went into high-speed mode and displayed 7:21, 7:20 one day. It was displaying 4:20 on the second day. It started around 10pm on both days when it got...

    TCell15 Goldline 2024 automation question

    Ty, Yes, my initial plan is to keep the old controller. I am just deciding on whether to get something generic for 500-600, or Hayward for 900. If that board poops out in the middle of cell warranty, I want to be able to get a new board and still use up whatever is left of the new cell.

    Old Hayward GLX-PCB-PRO - anyone knows what is going on here?

    Old GLX-PCB-PRO (old, really old 10-20 years) - resuscitated it couple of years ago by resoldering that high amp connection that fails. T-Cell-15 - the thermistor is reading 6.6 kOhm with temp in 90s - seems reasonable. Washed, re-washed, may have used too much acid - possible that cell's...
