Is there a way to easily tell? I believe they are 120v as I don't remember seeing a transformer on the back when I had my liner replaced last there.

My pool was built in 2009 and the light that I'm assuming was originally installed at the time has finally died. (I bought the house in 2015) So again, assuming that a Hayward Color Logic lasted that long... :eek: Of course I'm pretty alarmed at the nearly $1,000 cost for a replacement light...

Yeah I haven't used my pool frog in quite some time, just came with the house. I've been around here since 2015 which is when I bought the house, just never done a full refill on the pool. I have all my chemicals ready to go, test kit is ready...even picked up a much needed speed stir. Okay well...

Hey guys, Back in March I put down a deposit to get my in-ground pool liner replaced. What was supposed to take 2-3 weeks has now stretched out to nearly 3 months partly due to Covid-19 with the liner manufacturer warehouse shutting down to the company I picked probably not making me a...

So I've been living the slam life after finding out my cya level disappeared. I was maintaining a level of 40 for the summer, but when my pool went green after the 4th and I was losing chlorine quick, I was shocked to see my cya registering zero. We did have a lot of rain in June, but I'm still...

I wasn't sure since the sticker stated 1hp on the side of the whisperflo. The whisperflo couldn't push enough water to run the deck jets, returns and spa seats all at the same time. I normally would have to reduce flow to one of the features, but honestly rare I would run all at once anyways.

Need advice, my 1hp Whisperflo pump recently died and I ordered a 1.5hp Superflo pump. For my size pool, 28k gallons, floor jets, and spa seats aka buddy seats. Did I make a mistake? I was assuming it was an upgrade due to the increase in HP, but reading up more... I realized they are not the...

The pump runs the returns, buddy seats and four jets on each side of the pool. I'm going to assume that is why it is so large. My robot has a three hour cycle, I run it when I see dirt like this. I run the pump about four to six hours. If I clean the pool with the robot and dont run the filter...

Here are the pics When I brush it, it looks like a cloud of dust. It does not fall right back down. The service factor states 1.25

My numbers all are good, pool has been crystal clear since I opened it in early April and if you look at the pictures of what my robot caught in the filter you can see it is definitely sand. I do wonder if my pump is too strong for it though, it states it is 1.25 HP, but I feel that it would...

Right, I thought it could be that especially with the leaking backwash pipe which is why I went ahead and replaced the entire filter including the multi port. Everything on the filter side is brand new, new filter, new multi port, new sand. I think I need a new me at this point :( Here are some...

That is what I'm hoping, just how long do you think it would take for the sand to leave the lines?

Hi everyone, I'm at a complete loss on what steps to take next for this problem I've had since I bought my house last April. Everytime I run the pool I notice that I would get sand on the pool floor. I made sure it was coming out of the filter by tying a sock around the return and sure enough...

I recently had my pool closed by the builder. I have one of those foxx pool fitted covers. Just like the one in that video. ( Closing Inground Pool With Fox Cover - YouTube ) I was outside today clearing the leaves off and getting ready to pump the water off the top when I noticed there was a...
