    Pool automation - System update question

    I can check tonight. I assume the firmware version is what appears on the PDA remote when you turn it on, correct?

    Pool automation - System update question

    I get distracted and keep forgetting to come check on my own threads. That is great info. I knew it would not be cheap, its in the ballpark of what I had in mind.

    Thanks for the quick reply! Thanks for the quick reply! I had no idea about Cloromax, will go to Walmart and look for PECL! What happens if I were to go above FC20? is it harmful or am I just wasting chlorine? I will look up the SLAM process, the link just takes me to a blog page with...

    Pool automation - System update question

    I have a pool that is about 11 years old and I would like to update the automation side of things. I do not even know what I have, lol, but I will post pictures at the bottom of the post. I know my system is all Jandy. I have the Handy PDA remote, a variable speed pump, a CS200 filter...

    Hi guys, I have been a member for a few years and have been maintaining my pool for over 10 years with no problems until now. Long story short, left for a summer vacation to Canada and my wife broke her arm (humerus) while mountain biking. A two week vacation turned into 4 weeks away from home...

    LED pool and spa light recommendation

    I’d say some colors are brighter and some are not. The blue and white are brighter, the red is not. I really never use red, so I’d say for the colors I use these are better. The changing colors will give you a seizure … they change so fast. Again, I think if they last a year plus, this was...

    All fixed and synchronized. Basically turn them off, wait 20 seconds or more and then turn on and off a bunch of times. They will sync up eventually.

    LED pool and spa light recommendation

    Spent the best part of today changing the lights. Fishing the wire through was something I never want to do again. I soaked the pipes with dishwashing soap yesterday but it was still a royal pain. I tried with pulling line first but ended up buying fishing tape, the plastic one. The last one...
