    New Jandy Versatemp heat pump, pressure went up to 26 PSI

    I’m fuming right now. Had the heat pump added on Monday. Noticed today the filter pressure is at 26 psi on max 3400 RPM and the pump is struggling to prime and get all air out. I have new unicel filters installed last month. For my own sanity, I took filter apart and cartridges were clean. No...

    Problem finding quality cartridge for Jandy CV340 filter

    Yeah, I saw this one. I stay away from small shops selling on amazon platform directly. If anything happens, amazon won’t have your back.

    Problem finding quality cartridge for Jandy CV340 filter

    does anyone know if production of parts for this Jandy filter has been discontinued? I can’t find pleatco or unicel from reputable stores. Amazon has third party stores selling the same Chinese made filter under different names with questionable reviews.

    Water heater installation

    I’m handy. Not every house project is worth my time. I have I agree. I own a business and after working with people I learned how to read their BS between the lines. Just outreached to a company further out. Will see. I do have a quote for $5.5k plus whatever electrical line would cost...

    Water heater installation

    Nothing unusual and everything wide open. The pool is 5 years old, so the plumbing and electrical is pretty straight forward.

    Water heater installation

    I do have the breaker at the pool equipment. Cost of heat pump is about 5-6k. According to the estimate I got, he wants 8k for install.

    Water heater installation

    I won’t do the plumbing. As I said, the only one I was able to find wants me to hire an electrician to run the electrical line and hookup. My hvac company doesn’t deal with anything pool related.

    Water heater installation

    Good morning! I live in Charlotte and shockingly can’t find a contractor to install a water heater for my 18k pool. Found one but he wants me to hire an electrician. I preferred to have one company do it all to avoid finger pointing in case of a warranty issue or whatever. The second contractor...

    Cracked ball valve replacement

    Hi all, There is a hairline crack along the ball valve housing. I’m contemplating if I should replaced this valve myself or hire a pool company. There isn’t much pipe clearance and I’m afraid this might be a bigger project. Any suggestions? Should I replumb the whole assembly as the rest of...

    AquaPure Ei low salt or temp. New cell or new SWG?

    Very informative, thank you. Nonetheless, should replace the system that’s already discontinued or continue buying the cells? If this system is know for having problems then I don’t mind changing it out altogether.
