Units 7 years old and replaced the cell 1 year ago. Not sure whether it’s the cell or the cable that went bad first. Any way to test the cell for some kind of short. Obviously the cable is now bad. Any experiences with this? If it’s the cell….I’ll likely purchase a new unit with warranty of...

So...my back yard was originally tree lot and a little below grade, although the township says the swale was to the right through other owners yards to the woods. In reality, I had a small wooded pond when it rained. I had a topographic survey performed. The neighbors were irascible by my pool...

Im in central NJ and recently went through the pool/contractor experience and learned quite a few things. Everybody has a story of problems and encounters, so I won't bore you with my tribulations, but I had to laugh when my contractor (with a Century of experience) tells me he will not clean...
