    Hayward pump ticking/vibration noise

    Can someone help me identify where this noise might be coming from? Or possible things to check. The pumps only a few weeks old it was replaced under warranty, I’ve checked the impeller with my hand to make sure it was clean, also ran the hose in there. I’ve put pressure on different parts of...

    Hayward VSP won’t turn on

    I have a new power end assembly on its way, has anyone ever swapped one? It looks pretty straightforward, but I figured I’d ask.

    Swamp starting 😱

    I have a similar situation, I’m waiting on a pump. What I did and it seemed to work well was to drop my sump pump in the deep end without the hose on it. I put it about 18” down and slowly poured the chlorine over the water the pump was pushing up followed by brushing. I let that run for...

    Hayward VSP won’t turn on

    The pool company is coming to take a look this week to hopefully confirm what’s going on, my next issue is I’m starting to get a good amount of Algea. Any reason I can’t add some chlorine and mix it using my sump pump, or am I better off just dealing with it when I get the pump issue fixed?

    Hayward VSP won’t turn on

    No automation, man that’s not good. Pump was installed October 2019 but not used used until May 2020, you’d expect it to last longer then that.

    Hayward VSP won’t turn on

    The pump will not run at all, I open the cover to the digital screen and it’s blank. So I have no way of starting the pump. How would I check that? Also I searched but could not find, do these pumps have any fuses that could go bad?

    Hayward VSP won’t turn on

    The end of last swim season the digital display on my Hayward pump wouldn’t turn on my electrician verified I have power going to the pump so I figured it was the display that went bad. I ordered a new display just plugged it in and I’m having the same problem, has anyone dealt with this...

    Algae and FC question?

    Yes, I’ve tried it a bunch of different ways. Definitely frustrating since I’m pretty sure I overshot my CYA with my testing procedures.

    Algae and FC question?

    That’s exactly what I did, just confused now the line is always very visible no matter what I try with the 50 ppm standard. I’ll try again

    Algae and FC question?

    Pool is still looking good, I just received my 50ppm standard and now I’m concerned my CYA may be a lot higher then I thought. I was under the impression the test was over when the dot just barely disappears? I mixed the solution poured to 50 ppm line and can’t under any conditions make that dot...

    Algae and FC question?

    So I may have found my problem, should have not been lazy last time. Just pulled the trim ring off the lights and can see visible algae, not a ton. If I take those out and clean them by hand do you think a full slam is necessary?
