Ok, thanks. Yeah, sounds like an older model. Seems like the latest model is not as deep...I just don't know if it will actually fit. Might have to just stick with the Hayward to play it safe.

Thanks for the info. Based on that image, I definitely would have no choice but to stick with the Hayward...but I found different dimensions for it on a few retail sites selling them. Several sites are showing this: According to one of the sites, the specs above are for: "Pentair...

Hi all, I have Hayward ColorLogic 12v lights in my pool (model number LPCUS11100) but would like to replace them with Pentair IntelliBrite lights, as I have Pentair EasyTouch and when I switched to Pentair the installer misadvised me when I asked him if I would lose any functionality as far as...

Yeah, I have that feeling too...it's just a bummer because we barely use the lights...we probably use them like twice a year...my wife wants me to just leave it be and not replace it since the other lights are working and it's like $1,000 for a new light...I'm sure I'll end up buying it though...

Hi all, I have a Hayward ColorLogic 12v LED light in my pool that has stopped turning on. It was blinking a few days ago and now it just won't turn on. I have two other lights (originating from the same circuit) and they are working fine. I checked the GFCI and the circuit, and neither are...

Yeah, I'm going to drain...going to try draining at least half of the water as I'm nervous to empty the entire pool with how much rain we've been getting (avoiding the pool popping out of the ground). I've continued shocking the past couple of days and am going through a lot of chlorine and...

Thanks for the links. Based on what's being said in there, it looks like I need to SLAM until the FC and CC start to get into normal range, right? My current levels are: FC: 0 CC: 14 (it's elevated because I was SLAMing to get rid of the algae I mentioned) CYA: 35 (I know this is low for a...

Hi all, I had a stain that I couldn't remove from my pool wall, and after doing a Jack's Magic Stain ID test I determined that a Jack's Magic "O2 Safe Shock & Stain Solution #2 Treatment" should work. I went ahead and did the treatment about 10 weeks ago. Oh boy am I regretting it! The...

Nope. I'm at 11 weeks and I'm still not getting normal FC readings. I last reached out to Jack's Magic a couple of weeks ago and they said I should keep waiting. They sort of had an attitude and asked why I even care about not getting FC readings and that getting the TC should be good enough...

I figured it out - one of the Jandy Valve Actuators isn't working. It's stuck on spa mode. I have a feeling it's related to the IntelliFlo installation, as they wired it incorrectly at first. I have a feeling they messed something else up int he EasyTouch and that the valve actuator isn't...

Hi Marty, I do like the spa spillover. Thanks for the info regarding it. My concern is just whether I should increase the IntelliFlo RPM setting if I am not feeling flow from the pool returns (despite having good flow from the spa returns and the spillover).

Hi all, I recently had an IntelliFlo installed. The installer set the pump to run at 2500 RPM when the system is in pool mode. In that mode, the spa's spillway is active and flows the water from the spa to the pool. However, I cannot feel any water flow coming from the pool returns. I can...

Update: The service manager came today and saw that the tech that installed the pump wired it wrong. He fixed the wiring and everything is working now.

Hi Jim, Thanks again for all your detailed information! I reached out to the company that installed it and the owner was embarrassed (as he should be). He couldn't believe his tech told me that they don't handle the automation aspect, and that the tech didn't correctly fix other issues. He...
