    Skippy's New Fountain

    I hear that. If I leave the solar cover on, pool gets up to 92–94 occasionally. Yikes.

    Active 20 acting like a Polaris

    I have to run in again when I’m back from vacation, it is working as normal. I ran it three times because I had a ton of debris, and good old ghost lights sucked up everything. It’s working and back in action. If anyone else has this very mysterious behavior, hopefully yours is covered under...

    I second that motion. I’d buy one.

    Active 20 acting like a Polaris

    Thanks for the bump Kim. After some digging, I realize that it was still covered under warranty. Sent it in and they replace the motor and the large wheel assembly. I ran it recently and it seems to be working, OK. I kept my pool solar cover on, and it wasn’t going across the whole underside of...

    Active 20 First Impression - MEH!

    My A20 also failed. Compared to the Maytronics S200 I previously had, this A20 sucks. I got two less than 2 seasons out of the A20; 4 with the S200. They say there’s not a big difference between some of these models, and the names are only difference, however, so far I will not buy an Active again.

    Active 20 acting like a Polaris

    I am so happy I switched to a Maytronics over 6–7 years ago. Love the things. My first may S200gave me 4 yr. 4/21 I purchased an active 20. And then months later, I purchased a new controller. Figured I’d get at least another four out of it. Fingers crossed we do. Anyhow, what’s currently...

    Pool equipment enclosure unit

    Got it. Thx. Unfortunately, my model does not have a door/cover to close over the digital display. Before my original post, I purchased an after-market pump cover. So, hopefully that can just snap on and give some protection. I don't think I would bother trying to paint the old fiberglass on...

    Pool equipment enclosure unit

    Hi you all. With dry rot getting worse, I really need to do something with the pool equipment enclosure unit I have. I have tried to make it last as long as possible, and it is still going. I have posted about this years back, but have made it last. Anyhow, I previously thought about trying to...

    DIY Solar Cover Roller

    When I did you my roller, I ended up doing what you stated (half it, then qtr.). I sandwiched the cover under the qtr pieces and secured it with galvanized screws. Worked good enough.
