Thanks Jason. In that case, there should be no problem in removing the sight glass and plugging the hole which is what I had in mind to stop the mess. Never look at the sight glass anyway as it is in an extremely awkward position to get to.

Pentair HiFlow Valve Sight Glass 272550 with vacuum projector What does the vacuum projector, which I guess is just a thin round piece of rubber covering 3 holes in the end of the sight glass' do? The only thing I know it does is to leak water when valve is set to vacuum to waste or to rinse. I...

Got her fixed! The only thing I could find in my system that did not fit the recommendations on this site was that the control box was wired into the hot side of the time and not the pump side. Every thing else appeared to be right on. Rewired the control box to the pump side last week so that...

Yesterday's pumping cycle average salt readings (salt strip 3260): 7a=200 no generation - check salt, inspect cell on 8a=2100 no generation - check salt, inspect cell on 9a=2100 no generation - check salt, inspect cell on 10a=2100 no generation - check salt, inspect cell on Move control box to...

Two week old cell, cable connections good, salt strips 3260. The old cell simple shut down after 7 years so we replaced it with an oem. I thought I was having weird reading issues with this new cell until you clarified the readings for me. Once I kick start the cell, the control box will read...

I run the pump for 5 hours very day. The generator is set to 50%. I am having an issue with the generator turning on as the reading is anywhere from 200 to 2100. Power light, check salt light and inspect cell light is on. I can run the pump 24 hours and it never starts generating. I can force...

Color me dumb! Now I get what you are saying. Makes sense now. Will start looking at it differently now. Thanks Jason

Apologize for not making myself clear. All the above readings is with everything on. Apparently I can make the cell/controls work but when I let them turn off and back on by there self, the cell does not generate. Being that I am now the "pool guy" I check the readings just before the pump turns...

Pool guy retired and I need help! First posting and I apologize for the length but I had to make sure there really was a problem with the equipment and not with me. The cell quit generating plus it was 7 years old. I replaced the cell, rebooted the control box and calibrated the cell and made...
