    Auto fill failed

    Moved from here. I am having problems with the auto fill on my pool. It never shuts off and the pool level just remains so high that it is draining out the overflow drain. Been going on for a couple months now. I finally found the shut off to the autofill. We installed the autofill 5 years...

    New Skim-A-Round All in One Skimmer

    I have 3 skimmers and I put the Skim Around in 2 of them. I had to put a rock in them to keep them in the sealed position otherwise when the pump came back on the basket did not go down in place. They do take more of the debris out of the pool but they put so much strain on the pump that I...

    Pool doesn't prime

    I have all Pentair equipment and last week the pump stopped priming and the only way to get it going is to put a hose in the pump basket for awhile and then put the lid on and start the pump. Also when I try to drain the spa the pool just runs as normal. I think my valve actuator is bad...

    ScreenLogic problems turning on/off Polaris floor cleaner

    In September I changed the schedule for the Polaris floor sweeper and then the problem started. It was not turning or off with the schedule and when I tried to start it manually I would have to touch the button on 50 or more times before it would kick in and the same to turn it off. So I...

    Pentair Intellibrite 5g White LED replacement question

    I have 3 pool lights and 1 spa light and currently have one pool light not working and one that seems to be going out. I am wondering if the aftermarket kit works or would I be wasting my money. Changing the whole light looks like a serious project for the pros.

    Pool Automation change out

    All of the equipment is Pentair. We just put in a new Intelliflo VSP pump. The day of the pump change out is when the MobileTouch 2 went out. I changed the card in the Transceiver(looks like an antenna) about a year ago. In the end we really like the idea of controlling the pool with an app...

    Pool Automation change out

    My Intellitouch i7 is still working. There seems to be some different options for the Screen Logic 2 system. I can't run the wire so I need the wireless kit. It looks like I just need to buy Part 522104 which is the Screen Logic interface and the wireless connection kit. Am I correct?

    New Austin Build - We have a Pool!

    That's the Austin ground. Your contractor should have warned you of the possibility of hitting lots of rock. You can't dig more than 6 inches without a jackhammer around here.

    Pool Design Feedback

    I have an air blower on my pool but it is really noisy so we never use it. The jets give enough for us.
