    Lost 10 psi on filter overnight...what to check?

    So since the pool was built (2017) and the first start up, our filter/pump has always had high psi. It runs around 28-29 psi. I asked the PB about it and he said that it was fine and that some pools run high psi and some run lower. We have a pretty big pool and I'm sure the plumbing lines are on...

    Heat Pump VS Solar Heating

    For what it's worth, I live in Indiana so climate is a little different, however I'll just add this here. We just opened over the weekend. Pool temp was 52 when I turned the pump and heater on. It was upper 60's during the day and dropped to around mid 50's sunday night. The past 2 days our...

    I live in Brazil and have a cyclone. If you want to give that a try, by all means shoot me a message and I'll be gladly to let you use it.

    Light Wire not long enough

    All of my lights (5) are ran to a junction box located right next to our pool cover motor. From there they are all connected together then ran to the panel. I'd imagine that you could do the same thing.

    Pool and spa lights not working

    I end up just replacing with the same light. The ones that have went out are the older serial numbers that hayward has updated since. I'm hoping these new batches of lights are longer lasting. Also, I'm not sure I can run other lights since I'm using the Omnilogic for automation.

    Pool and spa lights not working

    I have 5 small LED lights (hayward colorlogic) in my pool. 3 of the 5 have already had to be replaced after 3 yrs. I've come to the conclusion that Hayward lights suck.

    Hayward Omnilogic Lighting

    If you downloaded the files in Internet explorer to the USB, you have to delete the .txt at the end of the file. It will be visible after that on the main display. I went nuts on this trying to figure it out but noticed on one of the instruction pages, it says at the very bottom to use...

    Number of lights in pool

    We have a 20x44 rectangle pool. We put in 5 (1.5 inch) colorlogic led lights. 3 on one side, 2 on the other. It lights the pool up amazingly. I only wish we would have done 1 more to equal out both side.

    Can I blow out lines through sand filter?

    2 years closing and both years blew lines on filter mode. No problems with filter on the following opening. We have our equipment in a pool house so draining is a no no for us.

    Hayward OmniLogic and networked ColorLogic Lighting, is finally here

    I have my lights on the Main relay on my OmniLogic. I updated the firmware but nothing indicates/shows that I have the option for more colors/shows. I heard that you have to have the current generation of lights in order for it to work, but I still don't see any changes in the options on the...

    Omnilogic relays failing after update of firmware

    Is it just the files that aren't visible when trying to update it? I did this last night. I got to the option of upgrading the MSP and MP. Once I hit the MP, it gave me a USB/ but none of the files were showing up and they did previously on the MSP. If you downloaded the files in Internet...

    OmniLogic owners inside please......latest firmware (R3.1.0)???

    Couple of questions for you owners running an OmniLogic. I received an email I think last week stating new firmware was released for Omni products. The firmware on their website was released on 5/20/2019 for MSP (Main System Processor). I followed the directions to upload the file into my...

    Wasps, soap, salt, questions......

    This right here. We have not had wasp issues at all this year after hanging up 3-4 of these in random places around the pool and patio. Give it a shot.

    OmniLogic Network Trouble

    I was having the same issue with mine at the beginning of this year. What I found was that the Omnilogic device was picking up a 5 GHz channel (which is good for speed, but not for distance). I forced the signal to a 2.4 GHz (good for distance, but not speed) band and haven't had any...
