    Aqualink RS Power Center line in melting at lug.

    Cleaned the contacts real good and reconnected everything back up and running. I am checking daily to see if there is any overheating. So far so good.

    Aqualink RS Power Center line in melting at lug.

    Only once, I cut out a section to clean copper and used the same lug. I didn't clean those connections at the lug so there could have been built up corrosion adding resistance. I'll pull the lug screw and give everything a good cleaning. The wire doesn't have markings. Looks like it's big...

    Aqualink RS Power Center line in melting at lug.

    The line in to my power center keeps melting. The only thing that changes is a VSP pump and a voltage surge protector all on the same side. Any one have ideas on what is going on? I'm trying to get an electrician to look at it too, but I am an EE and don't mind a DIY if it seems reasonable...

    Next Steps... for Spa Light Niche Leak

    I dug out the old stuff and water was starting to drip out which made me think this was definitely the leaking spot. Putty should be here Friday. Gonna watch some YouTube videos to make sure I apply it right.

    @prasadkm0204 Yeah it's not fast takes a long time. Eventually after what i'd say is a week or two it will show up here in the app. Tap on what I circled in red.

    Next Steps... for Spa Light Niche Leak

    I've been hunting down this leak for awhile. I thought it was in the pool, but I finally took time to isolate the spa (spillover was in a always on configuration on a JVA). I believe i've found the culprit. I left the filter off and level of the spa drained to this level. Right to where the spa...

    water guru

    I've had the guru for almost a year now. It works really well. I trust it so much I only test by hand on the weekends now. The free water testing through the mail isn't bad either, but i've found those numbers don't seem to work out. I think sending them in the mail might affect the results, or...

    Evaporation in cold or leak

    Just to add a data point for you peace of mind. I ran my waterfall and spillover the whole time. I was losing 1" every 12 hours. It was insane. My spigot froze eventually and I ran a hose from my washer machine water line out the window into the pool. Fun times.
