    Managing Hayward Ecostar Pump and Aqualink

    I decided to buy a couple jandy relay modules to keep things consistent. I wonder if that 2 speed relay is from an prior pump or if it's related to the Jandy Stealth Booster pump but unused. Thanks again.

    I ran wires this afternoon between the aqualink board and the pump. I will wire up that one extra relay tonight or tomorrow. Is there any way to use the two speed relay that's in there and unused? Or am I best just buying another 3 R0658100 modules? Thanks again!

    Thank you, Jim. The more I learn about all this, the more questions I have as to why the original builder did certain things (like the mix of hayward and jandy with the aqualink sytem). It appears to be a Waterway Plastics twist on lid check valve. I'll open it up later today or tomorrow...

    Thanks for confirming. Given how tight those connections are, any thoughts on how to modify? Or, I guess I'm just stuck with it.

    Thanks for the response and I follow everything. I'll try to be a little clearer. The one issue more specifically is that when that manual valve cuts off the spillover, it's also cutting off the pool wall eye circulation nozzles. Seems odd to me that I can't cut the spillover without also...

    Spillover Plumbing

    In conjunction with trying to figure out how to make use out of my variable speed pump (post here), I enabled the spillover dip switch on my Aqualink and now have that functional. In looking to run the pump longer hours at lower speed, I'm trying to minimize the time the spillover is active...

    Yes, the pump is being powered off with the relay. The other wire connections on the filter pump relay appear to be the heater and swg. After trying a few different settings, looks like the swg still generates with the pump down to 1000 rpm. Haven't tested below that yet.

    Managing Hayward Ecostar Pump and Aqualink

    I just realized that my main pump (Hayward Ecostar SP3400VSP) runs only a single speed shown on the pump display as 85.5%. This strikes me as higher and louder than necessary, and I'd like to figure out how to run the system more energy efficiently and more quietly. From my reading on here, it...

    Restarting SWG after a Few Years

    A few years back, my pool service company switched my pool over to chlorine tablets instead of telling me I needed to replace the cell. Without getting into unnecessary details, we've let it stay that way. The company is now winding down and I will interview a few referrals next week. It seems...
