It is also outdoors through out the season if that matters

I am looking to replace my 20+ year old pump. Currently 1/2 hp. I have 1 floor drain. 1 skimmer. 2 return lines one has a pool skim. No bells and whistles. Currently run 8hrs a day . Was thinking about http://www.poolsuppliessuperstore.com/poolsupplies/Blue-Line-In-Ground-Pump-1-5-HP.html...

I had the grackle problem last year . I tried all kinds of things . The fishing string going across the pool worked for about a day until they figured that out . This year I set my home made fountain out of the return line to shoot across the pool. Ran it for about 8 to 8 the water and noise...

I appreciate all the help!!! Just check pump no water or evidence of leak . It does run warm. Was able to make out a little from the manf tag with a flashlight it's Dayton 1/2 horse capacitor start motor

It's not the plg unit I copy and pasted the wrong one . 240v model I tried to check my amperage upon startup with a clamp on amp meter . It looks like each leg hits 12amps tough to get a good read. I can throw the breaker and it will hold but it trips every time the timer turns on . Still...

I don't know the ratings of the pump it's from late 80s no info still on it

It's made to run on the same circuit .you tie them bolth into the load side if the timer so the swg comes on at the same time as the pump

The unit is 240v . U can purchase hard wire 240 or plugin 120 . I went with 240 due to my pump being 240. The wire feeding from panel to timer is 12awg . Was hoping to just upgrade breaker not wire cause the draw on startup is higher than the draw on run.

So this weekend I installed my new Jandy APURE35PLG AquaPure Ei Water Chlorinator. Now when I turn my system my breaker trips. I can turn on my salt water system then plug in my pump 240v twist lock plug and it works. My breaker is a dual 15 amp gfci in basement wich trips any time I turn on...

Perfectly clear and passed oclt

Hi everyone, I am thinking of getting a SWG. I'm looking for one that runs on 120v. My pump and filter are original jacuzzi brand late 80s I believe. Pool is 21k gallons vinyl lined. I'm just looking for an easy use one not all the bells and whistles just something to replace me from adding...

So my 1 month old blue diamond died last week, got it from sam's .So it went back no hassle. Now they are no longer selling it . I'm looking for a online pool store with a good return policy. The aquabot 4wd post got me interested. I'm in CT vinyl liner. Any suggestion are appreciated Thanks Paul

Would I have to drain and refill multiple times due to the fact that you can't drain to less than 2ft in sallow end? My low end is only 3 ft deep 8ft long then slopes 14ft to 8ft deep 8 ft long end

No copper pipe no heater nothing but BBB from me Now the previous owner I don't know what he did other than a Container of tabs left in the garage . If I do jacks blue I will have to keep using it all season?
