Brilliant idea. I checked with a regular magnet, and it didn’t grab hold. I’ll pick up some rare earth magnets and check with those too.

We have a spot that continually is growing on our wall. Daily, this blob shows up, we brush it off and it’s brown underneath it, and by the next day, the blob is back. My gut says it’s rust, but I’m hoping one of y’all will tell me it’s something different.

Thanks for this! I finally got the others in but haven’t installed them yet. I might use one of these instead.

I’m still waiting on the Jandy check valves for the blower. I should probably cancel the order and get them from another source at this point. In the meantime I removed the blower and capped off the line and my electrician came out and re-wired where the damage was and he put a GFCI breaker at...

I shot some videos this morning to help explain everything. We aren't working with copper on this and I'm pretty handy. Here's the pool from the top showing where the auto-filler float valve (toilet type) is and the locations of the photos I took yesterday: Here are more details from below...

It goes into the pump baskets I think. I don't have any other debris baskets. :oops:

Thanks for the additional info on the IFCS. I was thinking that the valve controlled the water to the system, not that it was suction but now that you've pointed it out, it makes sense. I'll check the pipes i the back. Interestingly though, now that everything is working property with the...
