    New pool (home) owner: Questions on spa, solar power heater, and switches

    Just an update. I found the other end of the airline. But not sure what to do with it. As far as testing the motor that is hooked to the air switch, this may be more challenging to do it safely. It's 240 V so I need to figure how to get 240 to it. Either I can hook it up to the power terminals...

    New pool (home) owner: Questions on spa, solar power heater, and switches

    The 4 way air switch is pretty accessible. However, before I do that, i want to confirm that the pump it is connected to is working. The blower that it is connected is working. Both the vendor and the shop owner said replacing the air switch would be close to $400. Replacing that pump would be...

    Thanks for checking back in. I have not gone back through that area to look for the other end of the airline. I've had other updates though. I was having trouble with the T104R timer turning on my pump so I purchased a new tripper from Home Depot. The person there also mentioned a good pool...

    Here is a picture of the air line - but one problem, I can't find the other end. Maybe I just need to look more carefully. https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/111954427563253073716/albums/6051152093551704593/6053023839095091234?pid=6053023839095091234&oid=111954427563253073716

    New pool (home) owner: Questions on spa, solar power heater, and switches

    Thank you all for replying. On the spa pump, I don't have a way to turn it on since it is controlled by the air switch. The technician who came out blew into it (yuckky) and then said it was broken. So it is DIY? i'll see since I am overwhelmed with projects these days, and I'd rather work on...

    New pool (home) owner: Questions on spa, solar power heater, and switches

    We recently purchased a house (in South Florida) that has a pool, spa, heater, and solar power heater. I have no experience with pools, though I am an engineer and am good at fixing things, especially electrical. I do have a pool maintenance person coming on once a week, and a pool heater person...
