    Hi sktn77a, Yes the warranty on PureLine Prime is intact if you install the pump yourself and it does not need to be installed by a "Professional"

    filter operation with varaiable speed pump

    Hi bear30956, We sell quite a few heat pumps (various brands) and I would agree with your assesment. I would suggest the Hayward HP21404T 140,000 BTU Heat Pump I like this unit as it has one of the highest BTU Ratings at 140,000 BTU's meaning it will heat your pool quicker than others (the...

    New Hayward VSP pumps won't hold suction

    Hi hillyjd, The first think I would check is to see if you are pulling in air anywhere common areas would be the lid oring, any unions or valves on the suction side of the pump and any fittings on the suction side of the pump. You can take a bottle of sopy water and spray all of these areas to...

    Hayward cartridge filter

    The Quad DE is nice but you are looking at also being the $1,000 range for this filter and it sounds like you wanted something more economical. I really think you will be fine with Hayward 175 Sq. Ft. as this filter has a quite a larger flow rating than the current filter that you are happy with...

    Colorlogic V2.5 120volt led light replacement

    Hi Patbell, The Colorlogic Universal Lights do have a Mode Called ColorLogic 2.5 & earlier mode: "Use this mode when installing your new light in systems with ColorLogic 2.5 & below lights.

    help me to select a new pump

    Olivier, The motor on PureLine Prime has an 18 Month Warranty and the pump housing has a 12 month warranty. We are currently in the process of getting the PureLine Pump Energy Star certified, the pumps are at the testing facility as we speak and we have been told we should have Energy Star...

    help me to select a new pump

    Hi Olivier, I do think the Intelliflo would be overkill for your set up. 1.5" plumbing can only handle 60 GPM so even if you had a 10 HP pump you physically can only get 60 gpm through the 1.5 inch plumbing. With the Intelliflo you would be paying for the higher HP range (i.e. the HP range...

    Hayward cartridge filter

    Hi Mak104, Based on the information you supplied I think you would be fine with the Hayward 175 Sq. Ft. Cartridge Filter as it has higher flow rating and a larger cleaning capacity then your current filter which you were pleased with. It is true that the larger the filter the better so...

    Hayward cartridge filter

    Hi Mak104, A few more questions.. Could you supply the Manufacturer, Model # and Square Footage of your Current DE Filter? Before your DE filter needed repairing were you happy with its filtering ability?

    Hayward Pool Light

    Hi PoolBill, The ColorLogic can be cycled through the colors of the light by powering the light on and off relatively quickly, so as long as you can hook up the iDevices switch to turn power on and off to the light then you can cycle through the colors and color shows. However, you will not get...

    Help choosing replacement pump

    Hi Phillijp, If you are going to add solar then I would suggest a 1.5 HP pump and you will want a High Head Pump to get the water up to the roof, something like the Hayward Super II Pump.

    Help choosing replacement pump

    Hi Phillijp, Based on your pool size I think a 1 HP would be fine. I personally like the PL2601 1 HP PureLine Prime Pump. I like this pump because it has a Century/AO Smith motor which we have found to be the most reliable motor, the pump comes with quick disconnect unions and large 2" plumbing...

    Replace dead motor or entire Sta-Rite pump?

    Hi Jdpool86, As far your replacement goes, I would replace just the motor and you have 3 options for replacement, which is a single speed motor, dual speed motor or variable speed motor. The single speed will be the least expensive up front and the dual speed a variable speed are more expensive...

    Pump Shuts Off After 10 Seconds

    Hi LakiRed, You have 3 options for replacement and it all really comes down to how much you want to spend up front vs. the ongoing operational costs. The least expensive up front cost would be staying with your current ST1152 Single Speed Motor ($247) The next option is a 1.5 HP Dual Speed...

    Pump Shuts Off After 10 Seconds

    Hi LakiRed, If you are wanting to replace the motor with the same single speed motor then you will need to double check the Service Factor (SF) from your motor label. If your SF is 1.0 then you will need this UST1152 1.5 HP Up Rated Replacement Motor if your SF is 1.5 then you will need this...

    Two lights, one niche ??

    Hi Sandy Pool, Unfortunately there is not a pool light as you described. I know having another niche installed into the side of the pool would be a major project. You might want to consider one of these lights here that hang over the wall of the pool NiteLighter® 100 Watt "Ultra" Underwater...

    Skimmer replacement

    When I originally read this post I thought this was for an above ground pool but upon re-reading it I noticed it is an inground pool, so I think the SP1085 skimmer is the way to go.

    Hayward colorlogic light problem

    Hi Joe Terry, It does sound like the PCB board inside the Hayward ColorLogic is going bad, the exact same thing happened to me on my light. The downside to the LED lights that use a PCB board instead of a bulb is that the entire light fixture needs to be replaced when the board/bulb goes bad. I...

    Skimmer replacement

    Hi Work4rus, Another option is the Hayward SP1091WM Widemouth Skimmer which is specifically designed for above ground pools. I believe the SP1091WM has a few additional accessories specific to above ground pools, it to is 1.5" but you will be fine using a 2" adapter as cowboycasey suggested...

    pentair globrite--a way to replace with something else?

    Hi Ryker, I don't believe there is another light that will fit in the Glo Brite Niche. I was thinking that the Hayward Nicheless 320 Light may work, but after furhter investigation they are longer than the globrites and wouldn't fit in the niche. The colorlogic manual says you need 9" min for...
