savdoc2, what is the GPM rating on your filter/pump?

Well, I really appreciate everyone that has contributed their experiences and opinion to my question!!!! Just wanted to update everyone with what I have experienced so far. In the last couple of days here in California City Ca, the highest temps we've had have been in the mid to high 80's, not...

Thanks!! Hey a little update, since my last post its been about tw0 hours +-, I just went outside, and the pool water temp is already 2 degrees higher. Its is currently @ 86F. WOW!!!! I might be able to see 87-88 by late afternoon. It is 450pm right now, and my collectors still have about 2-3...

Okay!! First let me thank you both for responding to my questions. My other concern is, if I run the risk of over pressurizing my panels given the size of my filter's pump (50GPM) if I were to divert 100% of the water flow thru the panels? My panels are seating about 2-3 feet higher than the...

Hello everyone! I need some experienced opinions about the performance of my solar heater setup. First let me start by describing some details about my setup. I currently have an Intex Ultra Frame 24' Round pool equipped with a Hayward EC-50 DE filter rated at 50GPM, in addition I also have two...

Re: Can't get new Hayward Filter fittings to stop leaking HE "asxetos" you've brought up a good point about the possibility of a missing seal/gasket. I will check the parts diagram for my filter and see if is supposed to have a seal on those connections. If not, I will definitely try the teflon...

Re: Can't get new Hayward Filter fittings to stop leaking HE Techguy & Isaac, I appreciated your responses!!! To answer your questions; This is a brand new filter, which I hard piped to my pool/solar heater using PVC schd 40 1.5" pipes. The fittings that are leaking are not pvc fittings, they...

Okay, so I just installed a new Hayward EC-50 DE filter on my Intex 24' round, and can't get the fittings between the pump and filter canister to stop leaking. The leaking fittings are, the one that screws into the filter canister, and the one that screws into the pump outlet. They came pre-...

Okay, so today I finally finished the install of my new Sunheat collectors (4x20) with my new Hayward EC-50 DE filter, and at soon as I started the pump one collector has a "pin hole" in it. Also if that wasn't enough, the factory installed fittings on the filter are leaking as well...

Re: Finally plumbed with PVC and 20' Solar Panel - Ultra fra Zooduster, great installation, very clean!! I'm in the process of doing a similar upgrade to my 24' UltraFrame as well. I replaced the crappy Intex plunger valves with two threaded 2" elbow fittings. The 2" fittings will screw...

Thanks for all your replies! My pool is an Intex 23' round metal frame. Are any of you intex owners are doing this in your pools?

Okay, It looks like I will never finish my project!!! My Hayward filter pump has a connector for ground bonding. How do I do this? I don't have a metal rod any where near the pool in order to do this. How long the rod has to be? Does anybody knows the requirements for this in California?

Hello everyone! I have a Hayward EC50 D.E filter for my Intex 24' round pool. Reading the manual for the pump, it says that I need to make sure that the voltage and amp should be within limits in order to prevent damage to the pump. My problem is that the nearest outlet is a50' away from were...
