Understood. That's my backup plan if I can't figure out the plug wiring, and may be what I have to do. Is there any standardization in the wiring of the plugs to the controller? Was hoping to scavenge the socket from the controller, and just rewire it on low full time.

I "inherited" a 20 year old Morgan Spa with a recent move. It has a controller that is older than the Spa (dated 1982). It was running continuously on high speed til I shut off the main breaker a few weeks ago...big mistake. A few days ago the outside temp was going down to the single...

By the time you buy the motor and switch you could almost buy a new Pentair Optiflo 2-speed: http://www.aquasupercenter.com/products ... ~6199.html Very happy with mine, and I like the handle design better than any other pump I've seen. Sold the old single speed on ebay for $80, too!.

"Must be something in the water" Sorry, old joke, couldnt resist. Still consider myself a newb, 2-1/2 seasons with my 8000gal above ground pool...but you got me thinking. My neighbor kid has a similar problem. She swims in the rec center pool, and complains about it irritating her eyes and...

Yeah, I got the same line from a friend who's had an in-ground pool for years when I told him I was using liquid. I figured it wasn't worth trying to convince him...and besides, even it it does, so what if I have to buy another $200-$300 pump in 10 years? (I'm really tempted to tally all my...

Need to buy some HCl anyway, I use it for deliming aquariums and their glass tops. Sounds like a good excuse to leave work early on a Friday...

Hi... Been lurking for almost 2 years now...time to start posting... I gleaned most of what I THOUGHT I needed to know from the forums...including BBB. Pool has been very stable since. Got my CYA at 50-60 this year with minimal effort. Way-yull...last week ph was around 7.0-7.2, pool...

Good idea...in theory Not to derail the thread...but...it's WAY easier to drain all the used oil into a 5 gallon container for bulk recycling. And the local places that recycle used oil make you take back your containers anyway.. ON Topic...kinda... The household bleach I buy has plastic...

Why?...because some people leave up a couple ounces of liquid in a bottle without rinsing... This is a hazard for the guy that has to sort it. I've never had a problem recycling bleach, or any other household chemical bottles. I always rinse thoroughly...and bleach rinses very clean. How...
