    I do not have an intelliflo pump, I have a whisperflo. Nothing to look at.

    Ok I just went out and checked it and I don't know why, but I now have the voltage back. But my I can communicate with the screenlogic module (hardwired and new) but I cannot get any data from the easytouch. I was told that alot of rs485 chips sometimes blow.

    The circuit breakers look fine. It doesn't look like I can reset them

    J20 Com

    I seem to have no power on my easytouch j20 com connectors. I should have 15vdc across the red and black correct? My screenlogic does not power up and I show no voltage on the small board in the back and also on the j20 on the main board. LCD powers on and I can manually control any of the...

    CYA is missing

    Drained most of my pool at the beginning of the year. Added about 8lbs of stabilizer over the course about a week. Pool store said I had a reading of about 60. Had to wait to get my new test kit, but when I tested myself, I am only getting about 20. I've tried the test a few times and I am still...

    Low pressure reading on DE Filter

    I did that and at first I did not get anything but a trickle of water out of the top. Turn the filter off and on a few times and then water came out much better. Reinstalled the gauge and still just 1 psi. I also tried turning the value before the pump from all drain and then to all skimmer...

    Low pressure reading on DE Filter

    I am also going to check the check value which is right after the pump. It may be disintegrating.

    Low pressure reading on DE Filter

    Ok thanks for the suggestions. I did notice last year that there was constant water sitting on top of the multiport valve around the black handle. That's why I thought maybe there was an O ring problem or gasket issue.

    Low pressure reading on DE Filter

    So for whatever reason I am only reading 1 psi on my filter gauge. I replaced the gauge because I thought it was defective. Still reading 1 psi on the gauge. I have flow from the drain and the skimmer and flow to the return jets. I have noticed that it is not that strong. I have a pentair 2hp...

    Borates and Birds

    I'm thinking about adding borates\borax to my pool sometime this season. However, we have small barn swallow birds that during the course of the day drink the water. They swoop down and grab a small amount of water as they fly over the pool. Will 50ppm of Borates hurt the birds?

    Fire Company Fill - Acceptable Iron

    The solution now is: My hose bib gets softened water from my water softener, plus I am using an eco one filter on the end of my garden hose.

    Fire Company Fill - Acceptable Iron

    So I had the water tested and the pool store is stating that there is about 3ppm of iron in the water.

    Fire Company Fill - Acceptable Iron

    That's exactly what they told me. I am going to get a water sample from them before giving the fire company the green light to come. I was going to take the sample to my local pool store to just see what the level is.
