    How can I power off and then restart Hayward H400FD heater?

    Thanks, that worked! I was looking to do that the other day, but didnt see a breaker for the heater. The panel is labeled, but nothing mentioned for the heater. Turns out it is connected to one labeled as "filter pump".

    Has anybody used an Artificial Ivy Privacy Fence to hide equipment ?

    I have seen something online, and this seems like an interesting option to hide pool equipment. I see that Lowes and Home Depot sell it, but online only.
