About three feet up, as I recall? Check. Just checked that they both still float. Check. Anything else I should be looking at? Thanks for responding! Mike

Hello! I have an older two-wheel model that, back in the day, would climb the walls when the filter was clean. Now, with a clean filter, plenty of hose to reach the far end of the shallow end, and having just gone through a rebuild with the tune-up kit, I never see it out of the deep end...

Wow. Some years ago I was so impressed with the help available from this community I became a Lifetime member. It's sad that everyone with any knowledge or desire to help others have either quit or died. RIP

For the love of God, can anyone help me?

Thanks for the bump sir! I sure could use some help with this issue. Please!

Well, I'm stumped. After no problems for years, my solar controller won't auto engage the pump. In fact, it only works when I put it on "manual test." Even then, both the cooling and heating lights are on simultaneously. Confirmed that the nocturnal cooling jumper is in the disable position...

All-in.

I need to have my light fixture replaced (Hayward), as it is corroded and leaking beyond repair. Can somebody give me a very general, ballpark range of what I should expect to pay to have it replaced? Thanks, Mike

Is there any way to colorize this material, like concrete dye?

Yep, that is what the Compu Pool support tech told me today, too.

It stops producing gas and says "No Output."

Mmmm....I've never seen mine while "off." It appears to be running all the time, even when I set the output to 10%. My FC is 8.0 and I can't get that to budge, no matter what % output I set.

Hi everybody: Is the output % a percentage of time (as in cuts on for two minutes out of ten, if set at 20%)? Or, is it on all the time and just the actual output is controlled by the output setting? Thanks, Mike

Yep, I believe y'all are correct. I just measured the resistance of the water sensor, and the conversion says that there is about a five degree lower temperature than the actual temp of the pool water. I'm surprised a sensor can go bad. Thanks for the push!

Water temp sensor, not the collector sensor, I presume?
