What kind of heater?

In case anyone finds this with a similar problem…we figured it out. There was air in our lines causing the noise. The new pump drain plugs were leaking. A little Teflon tape and the problem is solved.

Our aqua blue Pebblesheen is 3 months old and I’ve been diligent with taking care of it. This morning I found a brown rust looking stain in our deep end. I did add some calcium chloride yesterday add my CH level had dropped with the rain we’ve had. Could that have caused it? It won’t brush out...

The previous pump was about a month old. It was brand new and failed due to over current issue. The pump says “pentair 011056”

When I run it on a lower rpm, the noise goes away. Why would a second identical pump cause this problem? We ran the old one at 2800 for weeks with no problem (the previous pump did die after it was new for 3 weeks and we just replaced it under warranty….maybe the imminent death made it behave...

Both pumps are/were intelliflo vs pumps. Where would I find the mode number? We were running it at 2800 during the heat of the day.

Looking for help! We had to replace our Pentair vs pump yesterday. Since the new pump was installed, there’s been a terrible screeching from the Polaris return when the Polaris is not plugged in. If I remove the blue resistor disc, the sound goes away but the flow is so strong that it spills...

We have an automatic solar pool skimmer (we live in the woods) and we recently got our pool renovated with aqua blue pebblesheen. We’ve been diligent about taking care of the new surface. Although we have a swg, we’ve been using pucks (in a floater and inside the solar skimmer) and dichlor until...

We have a Solarbreeze automatic skimmer. Would it be safe to use that with a new pebble finish? I know we shouldn’t use our automatic cleaner for 30 days but the Solarbreeze only hits the tile. Thoughts?

4 Year old twins here too. My house is insane hahahaha

Is it fine to have the flow switch on when we don’t use the cell after opening next spring?

It won’t turn off with the power button. It just has an alert that the cell is missing and the power button is useless. Now I’m thinking I’ll have to plug the cell back in, hit power, then remove the cell...

We had a great first year with our RJ60+. We’re getting our pool remodeled in the spring and we won’t be able to use the SWG for the first 30 days. I bought a bypass valve for when we close. Do I need to disable the flow switch? Right now the salt console turns on with the pump. What’s the best...
