    Leak Diagnosis

    I sealed up the skimmer entrance area with 3M 5200 Marine Adhesive and used two-part epoxy on the stair crack and skimmer area crack. Seems to be holding

    Leak Diagnosis

    Bumping this thread as I try to fix this again this year. Unsuccessful last year in trying to figure it out. So this past week I've been letting the level drop to find the leak point. I was sure it was the skimmer, but now I have some new data. At the stairs today, there is a steady stream...

    Leak Diagnosis

    So the pool has settled out and stopped leaking at its currently level, basically at the bare minimum for the skimmer to operate. How would you address this skimmer to search for leaks?

    Leak Diagnosis

    Hello all, 16000 GAL inground pool in MD. So we went on vacation for 8 days and came back to a number of problems, including a leak at about 150 GAL/day. While we were gone, it rained A LOT and must have brought the water level too high. When I opened up the skimmer, the basket was empty and...

    New ET and IC40. No lights. Com Link Error

    I am really struggling with this new Easy Touch install and now the IC40 startup. I can't get the SWG lights to come on in any mode (service or auto). If I power down all the breakers and turn back on the Easytouch SWG diagnostic will come back OK for a few minutes but then eventually will...

    Bonding

    Thank you. I am leaving the connection and will check continuity when I get the pool open. Pool School somewhat addresses this but I just wanted to be sure. Pool School - Bonding vs Grounding "The bonding system and the grounding system are often connected together, especially in Canada...

    Bonding

    I've read countless threads and articles, but I can't seem to find a clear, definitive answer: 1. I am redo'ing my complete pad (Easy Touch + Intelliflo + Cartridge + SCG IC40). 2. I am connecting all these metal items with 8 AWG copper to the bonding lugs and split bolts where needed. 3. A...
