Thanks, I got this one but was hoping for a more detailed specifI ally for the manifold. l couldn’t find anything on YouTube either. May just have to start unbolting stuff piece by piece until I get to the manifold.

My Jandy JXi did survive the freeze. Looks like the manifold has cracked. Does anyone have any advice on repairing it? Is there a manual on breaking it down to replace the part? Or being 5 years old just replace the whole thing? I see there is a breakdown view with part numbers but no step by...

Several years ago I saw this thread. Just wondering how this Heat Exchanger concept is working for anyone who has tried it?

I did the same thing and replaced my water driven cleaner with a robot cleaner. My water was getting so warm in the summer that I built a water jet to cool the water somewhat at night. Seems to work

I have the iAquaLink system and use the WiFi app to control operations and it has been working without any issues. Controls spa, water feature, lights and swim jet have been easy to setup for routine operations with the iPad and spontaneous needs on/off with the iPhone. I have a Polaris iq9650...

Thanks, time to start removing the covers and find the actual leak.

Just noticed that my Hayward H400FDN pool/spa heater after 10 year was leaking water. It could be one of three things, the water tubes, manifold to the tubes or the gasket between. Question, has anyone changed out the gasket, manifold or water tubes before? Is it difficult or should I contact a...

Here in Houston, we have sweet gum trees with seed pods about an inch in diameter and in ground cleaners will not pick them up. Only a robot or water driven cleaner can suck them up.

Got another question. Along with cooling or evaporation on the surface of the pool, isn't there also the surface area of the pool on the ground or in the ground that needs to be included in the calculations? I am not sure what the thermoconductivity of gunite is, but I guess you could use...

I thought about doing something similar but after adding the cost for my time spent for implementing at $150/hr I just opted in for an iAqualink and hopped into the pool to enjoy it.

Just looking at the picture of the water level in the pool and the level on the walkway, there is no way for the water in the pool to flow up hill. If there is a leak my initial guess it when the pumps are on and the water is leaking out of one of the return PVC pipes to the pool. Might be a...

Life is good.

It is so nice to see success and you did it your self. Well done.
