I guess I could ziptie the hose to the fitting flap to stop it from pulling out and call it a day.

My pool vac hose is pulling out of the pool vac lock wall fitting. I have made sure when I inserted the hose into the wall fitting, that the tab on the fitting door is seated onto the hose rib. For some reason, the vac keeps pulling the hose out. Are there other types of fittings that I can...

I have tried to find the Seal Plate and the Tank Body Assembly and NO ONE has any in stock that I have contacted. We have removed and replaced the oring, siliconed it, etc. and it still leaks. All we cna figure is either the seal plate or the tank body assembly is warped. No visible cracks...

Hello Group. I have the above pump and it has developed a leak where the metal band joins the 2 cases together. The parts that I need, I cannot find. I have searched high and low. I have already replaced the seals and orings. I just need the 2 cases. The seal plate and the tank body...

Jim, Tested the 2 outputs from the transformer and the reading was 31 volts. This is inline with the spec. So, it appears to be the IC board. So the hunt is on for a new board. Thank you Jim for your help. Steve

Thank you Jim. I spoke to Tech Support at Pentair, they seem to think it is the transformer. I have to pull out the 2 wire legs that go from the transformer to the breaker and the board and test them to see if I get 22 to 39 volts AC. If I do not get those readings, then the transformer is...

Hello. My found out today that my IC40 was dead, no lights. Opened panel and observed the circuit breaker was tripped. When I reset the circuit breaker, I hear a hum and then the breaker pops instantly. I unplugged the IC40 and tried to reset the breaker. Same results. I am thinking that the IC...
