    PVC Repair or Flex Seal (or other) to Deal with Small Drip?

    Ok. So you recommend cutting and gluing instead of trying to somehow seal that tiny crack between the 45 and the coupler.

    PVC Repair or Flex Seal (or other) to Deal with Small Drip?

    Here are the pics. Looking at the third picture on the right, the drip is coming from the very small gap on the right side of the 45-degree fitting and the coupler directly to the right of the 45-degree. The riser to the left of the 45-degree was in use with my original filter. That filter...

    PVC Repair or Flex Seal (or other) to Deal with Small Drip?

    I changed out our 22 year-old Clean and Clear Plus 520 cartridge filter housing a few weeks ago. I had to really fight to get the old housing inlet and outlet o-rings to release from the 2" inch plumbing. I did my best to stabilize the plumbing while I used a mallet on the old filter housing...

    Moving from 2-Speed to Variable Speed Motor?

    I was looking at the wiring a bit yesterday. Looks like I can disconnect all wires coming from the house main breaker box to into the timer box then join the two disconnected, hot blacks to the blacks running out of the timer box to the motor. Then I would do the same for the ground wire...

    Moving from 2-Speed to Variable Speed Motor?

    We just got back from a vacation and found our 22-year old Pentair CCP 520 had a crack in the lower housing that was leaking a small dribble. I found a craigslist seller that was filling in his pool (new homeowner who not want a pool) and selling the 4-year old equipment at a great price. We...

    Tension Control Clamp Bolt Stripped!

    I just wanted to second the success of the procedure that dclynds outlined above. My year 2000 Clean and Clear Plus 520 filter finally had the brass nut on the filter clamp fail. When I was tightening the clamp after a filter cleaning, the brass nut just started to spin in place instead of...

    Dosing Pump for Vacation Use: How Much Daily Chlorine?

    Back from vacation. I set up the dosing pump timer to run from 10 to 10:15 am and from 10 to 10:15 pm while we were away. My initial test of the pump showed it pumped 2.7 ounces per hour (see post above). So with two, 15-minute run sessions I was adding about 1.35 ounces of liquid chlorine...

    Dosing Pump for Vacation Use: How Much Daily Chlorine?

    Here is an old thread from another forum that inspired me to pursue this idea: Liquid chlorine (bleach) slow dispenser. The thread goes a bunch of different directions, but as you can read near the end, a few of the hot tub owners had purchased the same pump that I bought and using it for...

    Dosing Pump for Vacation Use: How Much Daily Chlorine?

    I bought this little pump to add liquid chlorine to my hot tub during times when I will be away from our house on vacation. https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/brs-2-part-doser-1-1-ml-per-minute-bundle.html We just bought a used fifth-wheel and will be taking trips of anywhere between one week...
