    Compupool water fault

    I did send the picture to them. The ribbon cable is attached to the display board and requires a special tool to remove it. So, they are shipping a Display Board with ribbon cable on Monday. The ribbon cable got fried by the coil on the Power Board. I'll be sure to make sure the cable does not...

    Compupool water fault

    Took apart the unit to replace the PCB and it is obvious I need a ribbon cable too. It burned up.

    Compupool water fault

    CompuPool changed their mind on what was needed to fix this issue. Power Board instead of Display Board. Will post results in case it helps the "next guy".

    Compupool water fault

    Called CompuPool and they said I needed to replace the Display Board. They let me know I am out of warranty, but could purchase the part for $130 from an online pool store. I asked, "what if that doesn't fix it?" They replied, "my symptoms are text book for bad Display Board". So, I am going to...

    Compupool water fault

    Dang it! Mine is doing the same thing. Noticed the water looked a little off. Water fault light on and "no water" on LCD. Removed, cleaned and replaced the cell. Same. Salt is 2800ppm. Water temp is 90. Removed/Reinstalled Cell connection to head unit. Same. Argh.

    Noisy Pentair Whisperflo. Even after I changed the bearings.

    Talked with a couple of support folks at Pentair. Wow, do they hate their jobs. One Rep said it sounds completely normal. The other Rep said 2-3 years lifespan is not completely out of the ordinary. Then reminded me the warranty is 1 year. Hahah. I didn't want a free replacement. Just wanted to...

    Noisy Pentair Whisperflo. Even after I changed the bearings.

    I tried isolating the pump on a rubber mat, noise remained. Bummer. Pathetic life span on this particular pump. It's not even out in the elements and I took good care of it. I HATE buying things I already bought. ;-) Not even 3 short seasons. Lame.

    Noisy Pentair Whisperflo. Even after I changed the bearings.

    Near the end of last year pool season (3rd season of pool) my Pentair Whisperflo started to get noisy. I researched and it seemed like the resolution would be to replace the bearings. Welp, I just replaced the bearings today and the noise remains. I took a video hoping someone else may have...

    New Compupool Install - Bad water temp and salt ppm readings

    Re: New Compupool Install - Bad water temp and salt ppm read Good luck with the warranty. I purchased a new CPSC48 and it showed up dead. After over a month I got a replacement control unit sent to me. The thing looked like it was used and mounted outside for at least a year. The grounding...

    Compupool CPSC48 cell install

    Same run around from CompuPool. They claim parts still on back order. Every week they say, "next week for sure". Welp, swimming season is almost over here in the NorthEast. Argh..

    Compupool CPSC48 cell install

    August 2nd and still no replacement sent from CompuPool. They said another week before they anticipate the backorder for my parts to fill. Waaaaaaaaaaaayyy too long for replacements parts for a unit that showed up broken. ....and the place I bought it told me they have none as they are...

    CompuPool CPSC discontinued

    With the existing CompuPool CPSC series discontinued, I'm interested if anyone has any info on the replacement model. CompuPool said they are available or will be shortly to their Distributors/Installers only and not to general public yet. If anyone has info....care to share?

    Frustration with contractors

    $10k for a new liner, coping and deck pour seems very reasonable to me. How big is the deck?
