Grids are good, no tears and seated properly. Should I try adding more cellulose to bring it up to what the bag states to use?

We have had an issue the past year where dirt is circulating back into the pool rather than being filtered out. We have been using Cellulose for a few years and at first it seemed to work well. Recently, after opening the filter and thoroughly cleaning the grids of our Hayward Pro Grid 48, it...

We replaced our 2 terminal pool pump capacitor and now it is smoking.

Thanks. I will check WMS.

We have a Polaris 380 and it has been rebuilt several times. Last weekend we replaced the wheel bearings, belts and wheels. We also "rotated" the tire on each wheel. Filter has also been backwashed. Polaris still having issues climbing walls. Tried positioning jet at 11 and at 1 and neither...

Oh, ok, that makes sense.

Booster pump is after return line.

Yes, the timer. It works if I manually turn it on. I was pretty satisfied with these timers until I had to replace them last year and they didn't work 6 months before needing replacement. Thought maybe I just received a "bad" one and then replaced both of them again and then they stopped...

This timer model was installed for our pump and booster pump when we built it in 1998. In 2013 we replaced one of the timers and the in 2017 we replaced both timers at different times. Now one of the timers has gone out again. Is there a different model that others prefer with freeze...

Any suggestions on how I can keep the debris from clogging screen to Polaris hose. I've fully cleaned (removed filters) DE Filter system several times, but it appears grass is still coming through to Polaris hose. I've even ran pump and booster pump without Polaris attached to see if that...

Old timer and new are the same. Yes, will have electrician have the vendor rather than me. Thanks

Just replaced my timer with a new one. New one runs continuously. Unable to shut off with pins or manual knob. Any suggestions? Vendor is currently closed and will be calling when they are open tomorrow

We have a Polaris 380 for our in ground gunite pool. The wall connector never seems to be able to disconnect without unscrewing the entire thing from the wall. We've replaced it and replaced the o-ring as well as lubricating the o-ring. Nothing seems to work. Do you thing the replacement one...

I have a Polaris 380, the tail is sweeping great, but the unit leans forward on occasion and then the unit stops moving while tail still sweeps. New backup valve, float, wheel bearings and bands in May. Inground 16,000 gallon chlorine

We have a Intermatic PF 1102T timer/freeze protector for our DE pump and one for our booster pump. The one on our DE pump has decided to work when it wants. I presently do no have it set to come on and the temperature for it to come on to protect from freeze damage is 33, but it is running...
