    Newly inherited pool. PVC pipe purposely cut which is introducing air into the return jets. Any ideas why?

    We had to cut the conduit at the equipment pad to find the stuck wires. Thankfully it was right there. We repaired the PVC and filled the pool back up. Everything is working now. What a PITA and not cheap at all.

    Our previously postponed family reunion (We moved to the Bay Area temporarily then sold our house in Ohio when we moved back, and rented a much smaller house for 2 years in preparation for our move to SD county) on July 4th is happening here this year so that will be the first test of party...

    Thanks @jedigrover , I may put some thought into the additional Jandy valve. I would assume we could integrate it into the Easy Touch and control it from ScreenLogic. Decisions...Decisions.... I'll take some better pictures today once I get a break from work so people can see the spool. The...

    I'm dealing with the constant PH rise right now! It wasn't so bad before it became consistently warm and sunny...but now I feel like I'm in a 15 round title fight with PH right now.
