    Pentair 5G Color LED light Replacement

    I was able to get a 4-point tire iron behind the light and pulled hard enough and it came loose. Pulling it out the rest of the way was easy. Installation was easy. I left enough slack cable behind the light to make it easier next time.

    Pentair 5G Color LED light Replacement

    I bought a light with a longer cable. I suspect that is why the junction box is so low. I guess it's about a 100' run. I don't know if I took pictures of that while it was being built. At the time, I didn't know what it was. No pool people I called wants to touch it, since I already bought a...

    Pentair 5G Color LED light Replacement

    The large LED light went out. I have a replacement and I'm having trouble changing it out. My pool builder only left me with about 6" of slack behind the light. I disconnected the wires at the junction box and tied a pull string to the old harness to pull out the old light from the pool side. I...

    3 day deep freeze, how to protect the pool

    I am in OKC too. The freeze protection of the alternating the spa and pool wasn't keeping up and the pool was freezing up. I turned the heater on and set it to 40 degrees with the pool running 24/7. So far no problems.

    Adding a Pool Slide

    Is there a way to temporarily connect it to a return while it is being used, then disconnect it?

    Is it a major project to add a pool slide to an existing inground gunite pool with concrete decking?

    Air leak driving me crazy

    If you getting air bubbles, your leak is on the suction side of the pump. Like you said you have to change all the seals. Don't forget the seals in your actuators. There are 2 small O-rings and a larger cover seal in each one.

    Skim-Around Skimmer Baskets?

    Does anyone use those Skim-Around skimmer baskets that are suppose to increase the surface water cleaning? Do they work? I have a dog that loves to swim, and gets hair in the pool.

    Spa Blower Quit Working After In-Law House Sitting

    I've had two pool technicians called in and neither one could figure out how the original pool builder programmed the down arrow to work as the air blower function. Luckily I don't use the cleaner button any more, because I have a robotic cleaner. We changed the cleaner button to the air blower...

    Spa Blower Quit Working After In-Law House Sitting

    I've been out of town this past week. What is Aux X? I have a heater, but no heat pump. I didn't see where to get to the NO option.

    Spa Blower Quit Working After In-Law House Sitting

    The button works, because that same button is the down button when scrolling through the menu. The air blower on the control panel doesn't work in auto either, but when put into service mode that button on the control panel will get the air blower to work. In service mode the spa does not come...

    Spa Blower Quit Working After In-Law House Sitting

    I have a Pentair Water Pool and Spa Automation unit with 4 function remote. The in-laws stayed while we were away on Spring break and now the spa blower doesn't work. I can get the blower to work in Service Mode, but it will not work in Auto Mode. I think they turned a function or something on...
