Thanks for the info, very much appreciated.

Hi All, I'm looking to upgrade our Aqualink RS8 to the iAqualink setup. The indoor control panel is dead so I can't use the diagnostics to get any info. The pool-side PCB info is: PCB: 6474-G Chip: JI6520 Rev I Photo of PCB is attached. I'm pretty sure I need to get the iAquaLink 3.0 Upgrade...

Hello, recently my SwimPure Plus has randomly changed the salt cell size on its own. Has happened three times in the past 4 weeks. I've got a t-15 and it's changed that to smaller cell sizes. That led to it registering the salt level as too high and then ceasing chlorine generation as a...

Thanks for all the info. I checked out Discount Salt Pool and they had the Hayward but was a few bucks more expensive so I ended up buying it (and a booster pump) from Pool Supply World. And I did get $20 off with a coupon! The cell I'm replacing lasted about 9 years so figured I would stick...

Hi, Need to replace my Hayward T15 cell. Amazon has the Hayward Goldline T-Cell-15 TurboCell and price looks pretty similar to other sellers. There's a lot of reviews on there from people who had issues with their cell and said it was a nightmare getting support from Hayward even though...

mounting plate was seated and all three screws were secure. Nothing visibly that seemed out of order and there was no debris stuck in the impeller. I added a pic of the current diffuser showing the corrosion on the metal ring that goes around the end of the impeller and also a stock pic of...

Yes rub marks are only on one side. Diffuser doesn't really have any marks. It's got a metal ring on the inside of the opening. There's some scaling or corrosion on the metal but doesn't appear to have raised the surface at all. Can add a photo of that in morning. I probably didn't need to...

I've got a 2HP Pac Fab Challenger. Pump stopped working yesterday. When I was troubleshooting it, it was making loud humming sound but not moving. Opened it up and discovered that the impeller is rubbing against the metal ring inside the diffuser. I replaced the diffuser, impeller and shaft...

Wanted to post a quick follow up to close the loop on this issue. First off, thanks for the tips. Very helpful info. In the end, I decided to just get a new actuator rather then put any more money into the old one. Turned out to be a good move. Jandy's new model is the 2444. It's...

Thanks Mike, our spa does overflow into our pool and it sounds like you and I have the same setup. I was incorrectly assuming that prior to fixing the stripped gear, the actuator was going to a third position for spa drain but it must have been going back to position#1 for pool/spa split return...
