I have had a Hayward ecostar for 4 years now and have had to have the drive replaced 5 times, all by Hayward, which has excellent customer service but I am getting tired of having to shock the pool because the pump is down. So I purchased a Pentair Intelliflo variable speed pump. I have it...

Thanks! I usually don't start pool maintenance this early in the season but our pump and robot both died late last season and I am wanting to get ahead of this green stuff before warmer weather arrives and gives it a chance to spread. Appreciate the help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks! I will give that a try. I'm guessing you took the door off to do this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Sometime in the past few months the foam in my weir door must have come off. The door now stays completely open even with the pump off. It is a waterway renegade Skimmer. Would any foam work or is it better to just replace the door. Also how does the door come out? Would hate to break another...

Yeah. They do pretty much everything now. I had it on a high dollar projector I purchased in the past. Lightning hit it. They had a person come inspect it within 3 days. 3 days later I had a check for the balance of the policy in hand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Correct. The maytronics warranty is void. It is from asurion. It covers it for a full 4 years. Free shipping to a warranty repair place and if it can't be fixed they pay out $800. I have used them in the past for other things and it is hassle free. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

It gave me the option to add it when I added the product to the cart. It was the 4 year lawn and garden protection plan. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks for all the help! After exhausting myself over all these models that are about the same I made a decision. I ended up going with the older 2016 triton plus that comes with the remote and caddy with the top loading cartridge. Found a smoking deal on amazon warehouse that had it in like new...

Thanks for the info Jim. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks or the reply's! Does anyone know anything about what the Triton describes as Advanced Anti-tangle Software? It kind of worries me that it doesn't have a swivel. I guess the Polaris 9300 I had just got on my last nerve because the darn cable would get literally tied in knots. No idea how...

So I am in the market for a new pool robot. I had a Polaris robot that had to be repaired 2 times, and now one of the wheels has fallen off which in the pool, no idea how or why but I am done with it. I got about 3 years out of it and it was a pain in my rear. So I am looking for another robot...

Don't mean to hijack the thread but just had a quick question. Can this robot stay in the water indefinitely since you said it has a weekly timer? I purchased a Polaris robot 4 years ago and had to have it repaired twice, now the wheel has fallen off. They advised it was not sealed good enough...

I have been in contact with John from Hayward about the issues with my pump. Without asking John offered to provide a replacement drive with me covering the cost of labor. Being out of warranty, this is without question above and beyond customer service. John, thank you and Hayward for taking...

Thanks Hayward. Pm replied to. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

So I go out on a rather warm January day the other day and notice the pump is not running. It says Drive error- pump has stalled. I check the skimmer and a huge batch of leaves got into the skimmer basket, no idea where they came from, it is January and no trees are on our property. So I imagine...
