Do not use silicone or anything else, it's made to seal with the rubber gasket, just make sure the light housing and glass is clean where the gasket goes

Okay, broke down and called Pentair and got it set up the way I wanted, programmed the remote to run at the speed and the time length I wanted, programmed one button for the remote and an aux button on the panel to run for 1 hour, don't even have to go into timeout mode or get near the equipment...

Usually I add chemicals at night then turn the pump on with the remote and set a timer on my phone, last night I tried to put it in timeout so I could just go to bed and it would turn itself off but that didn't work so I set an egg timer on the pump and did it that way but the timeout mode did...

I can put it in service mode and timeout mode but it does nothing, shouldn't I be able to turn the pump on and off when it's in service or timeout? Also before bed I put it in timeout and when I got up it was still in timeout and my program was not running, never reverted to auto, which kind of...

I did that, it won't work on any of them. Pulling my hair out. The only way to do it is with the remote if I want to run it manually.

I have a new intelliflo VSF, Intellitouch panel and wireless remote. The problem I'm having is I can run the pump on the timer and turn it on with the remote but cannot put it in manual or timeout and turn the pump on with the panel filter button. What gives? Thanks

A&B epoxy works great. Used it for may years.

I'm getting an in floor cleaner in mine for under $4,000, it's guaranteed for life. After repairing pools for 30 years I like them and they've come a long way, if all you get is dirt and small debris they work great. I have no deciduous trees in my yard so it will work fine without tons of...

I just started filling mine, brand new 12 x 24 x 54, after being veeeerrrry careful with it there is a pinhole leak about three feet up on the side and I know I didn't do it!!!!!!!!! This is the second one!!!!:grrrr::grrrr::grrrr::brickwall::brickwall::brickwall:ARRRRRRRRRGH!!!!!!!! NEVER...

I'm thinking you should get pavers as wide or wider than the support legs, I saw a thread where the center piece of the support wrapped around the paver and bent from all the weight. Looks good.

Get some pvc glue and while it's running keep swabbing it on, if the air leak stops you'll know that's where the air is coming from. That valve should be replaced. You could try epoxy too as a temporary fix.but it probably won't work. I've had luck with epoxy or glue but just in emergencies...

A & B epoxy.

AAAAARRRRGH! I had that happen to my first one, it sucks! Not a lot I could do, took it back and got a new one but that one lasted almost 8 years, took it down and just ordered a new one after the top of the liner started fraying from the sun. But yep, check your fittings if the water is that...

Mine did that, I used a floor jack and a 2 X 4 to SLOWLY lift it while it was full and put a brick under a couple of the legs. If you lift it with a jack it doesn't lift the whole pool, just kind of rolls the water to the other side. I had mine up for 7 or 8 years.

Wow, that is some bad rust! I had ours up for 7 years and no rust.
