    Tight strainer lid .. any advice?

    Any pool or plumbers silicone based lube would be appropriate. Source from a big box, hardware or pool store. You want to stay away from anything petroleum based as it will degrade the rubber.

    Multiport valve leaking from the top handle stem

    I had that problem as it was the O ring. Replaced it using a bit of silicone lube on anything rubber to help it seal. Did you lube that O ring when you replaced it? You might want to take it apart and have an exploded diagram printed out or pulled up so you know you have the parts in the right...

    Hayward Spa Side Remote - Dead

    Guinness, are you talking about reply #18 where that person mentions putting it in the freezer? The part about using the $20-30 EW11 sounds almost too good to be true. Is that really just as simple as mounting the device and connecting four wires and then setting it up on your phone? That would...

    Hayward Spa Side Remote - Dead

    I'd have to say it's hard for me to justify spending the $$$ on a replacement remote when there is so much other stuff after hurricane Ian that needs repair or replacement. The convenience of having the remote is nice as the alternative has me going out on the lanai, through the screen door and...

    Hayward Spa Side Remote - Dead

    I bought the house a year ago but it's 15 years old so it's likely the original one, 15 yrs old. As above AQL2-SS-RF GEN 2 RADIO Is there a way to tell the mfg date from the serial number? Will read through the above link on the timer. BUT since the remotes indicator light isn't functioning I...

    Hayward Spa Side Remote - Dead

    Have a remote that just quit working. Thought it was the batteries so swapped them out with a fresh pair, still nothing. The indicator light at the bottom of the remote doesn't flash as it used to and all the buttons are no longer in control of any of their functions. Before I make a $400 order...

    What did you do to your pool today?

    <---here is before Hurricane Ian. And below is after Ian. Tore the roof of the Tiki hut apart and blew out one side of the pool screen enclosure, bent the other side. Wished I hadn't had it rescreened last year as then the screens might have given way instead of the cage structure. With no power...

    Backwash line location

    On that pipe sticking up out of the ground you might try using a shop vac to suck air by taping the hose to the pipe and then see where you might get a sucking sound. Move the multi-port valve through it's different positions and also one at a time try the different valves returning them to the...
