    Pentair GloBrite Problems/Questions

    Thanks for your feed back. I am willing to create another version if you can give me feed back on a better design. I can typically get a prototype within 2 weeks and a production version within a month. If you used the silicone adapter I definitely want feedback.

    Intellibrite 5G burned out?

    12v as the transformer is external. when you switch from 120 to 12 it generates heat. external vents to atmosphere, internal gets trapped inside light and runs hot which makes board fail faster.

    Repairing a crack in Hayward filter

    the tank body is probably fibreglass. you are better off replacing that part as any glue or epoxy would be temporary at best. Use a fibreglass rated glue (fibreglass resin) from your local hardware store. It has to chemically bond/melt to the filter in order to work.

    Ultra temp 140,000 BTU with Chiller keeps turning on and off

    Since you are obviously at the higher end of the scale, 88+ degrees, turn the heat option off. See if in chiller mode only it works correctly.

    Do solar cover reels work?

    I started with a solar blanket. Then rigged up 200+ ft of black hose fed with a small pump. A small solar panel powered the pump. 90+% of heat is lost at night, so put the cover back on before bed.

    Need help with old Hayward AstroLight

    There is zero difference between 12 and 120 volt light housings. Same Edison style E26 screw base. 120V systems are illegal in many parts of the country for a reason. If you already have 12v stick with it. Do the disconnect the ground wire test first.
