    Very loud noises when lights are on

    So, I returned my Intermatic transformer under warranty and got the Pentair transformer instead. It solved the issue. The Pentair transformer is much quieter, there is still a faint buzz but nothing like what the Intermatic did.

    Very loud noises when lights are on

    Moved from here.. Very loud banging noises when lights turn on I'm having the same issues and adding felt pads to the cover eliminated the loud banging noise. I'm still uncertain about the transformer buzzing when the light is on. I find it loud and quite annoying since it can be heard from...

    CircuPool Fan runs even when not producing chlorine?

    same here with the RJ30+, I have it at 25% for now and doesn't get hot, there is a nice gap in the back as well. Hence the stupid fan doesn't really do anything for me, it runs all the time even when not producing chlorine. I'm tempted to disconnect the fan from the board but probably a bad idea...

    I just finished installing a RJ30+ and realized how noisy the fan is when I turned the system on. The unit is mounted to the back of the house, next to my daughter's bedroom and I can hear the humming noise from inside of her bedroom. Not good. I should have gotten the Edge instead if I had know...

    Sub Panel Safety Switch

    Most pool sub panel I've seen at my friends or neighbors have some kind of safety switch on the side of the panel that I think allows to shut off power in case of emergency without the need to open the panel. I haven't been able to spot one sub panel on the internet with that feature, is that a...

    Light replacement for an old pool

    I think the white is just the color of the glass. The led light bulb is what ultimately makes the color changing, but it is confusing indeed so I need to learn more about it. And the point of the IntelliBrite controller is for anyone who wishes to alter the colors directly without having to pull...

    Light replacement for an old pool

    looks nice but I think I need to replace the entire fixture, there is a lot of corrosion and will be better off having a plastic fixture instead that won't leach metal into the pool...
