Chiming in late.... I love the Raypak heaters, currently own a 406A natural gas unit. Easy to use, fires up within 5-10 seconds and gets to temp quick. I do not know much about the LOW-NOX systems sorry. However a general note of caution. My first Raypak was installed back in 2006. Worked great...

I was afraid of that. I sent an email to Raypak this morning and will monitor the ebay posting in case things go south. Thanks!

Wanted to bump this back up in case anyone has any information on links for the cable. Thanks.

I am trying to configure my Raypak 406A heater for remote operation. I opened up the panel and the 7 pin connector w/ 3 wires is not there. I went through my bag of goodies and no luck. I searched on the web to order but for the life of me I can't find it. I did find a wiring harness pack which...

Kids had me crank up the Raypak on Friday. Pool temp has been around 82-84 through the weekend. Glad the warm weather is here.

Tks, I get smarter the more I use these boards. Does this certify me as an electrician now? :D

Is there a way to visually identify what voltage my current pump is using (115 or 230V)? Silly question I know

Thanks again for the advice. Before and after pics. Just waiting on the FC to come down to normal levels. Hoping CYA will drop after all the rain that we will have this weekend. All other levels good. See the guy in the blue shirt? Sure he is nice but he won't be back (pool company).

Beautiful pool, and house. I really like that automatic cover, wish I had one. I am sure you guys will get many years of enjoyment from it.

My wife would LITERALLY kill me if she came home and I had done that to the pool! Kudos, awesome project and a great story to follow!

I was more saying along the lines of ... the last 12 years, I have never been able to see the bottom of the pool after peeling back the cover ... however that was because I as was not educated and gone through Pool School

Thank you for your service Rebelscot! And you found the right place. Great community with lots of knowledge to share.

Awesome, thank you. My last question and I think I can close this out. SO my pool going in was looking pretty good. Wanted to do the SLAM to get a good start to the season. For a situation like that is a one day SLAM ok?

ARRRGGGHHH.... Started my SLAM last night around 4pm EST, did all the right things. Rechecked FC/CC, sitting around 30/0. Checked again at 8pm EST, looking solidWent out this morning to check levels. Being that my CYA is high (70), target shock FC is 28. That translates in to adding a lot of...

That is a pretty nice setup you have there. Great job.

What????? That's impossible...

The SLAM is on!. Got home and brushed, vacuumed and backwashed. Levels are: Water temp: 67 FC: 7.0 CC: 0 PH: 7.6 TA: 80 CH: 220 CYA: 70 Dumped in lots of chlorine and waited. FC now at 30. Plan to brush and vacuumed tonight and check FC.

Sorry to derail the post a bit... I currently have the Taylor Chlorine FAS-DPD Service Complete Test Kit K-2006C which is great. Its in its second year, so I will replace with the TF-100 kit in 2020 opening. My question is can I buy 6-8oz plastic bottle with squirt top and use to bulk collect...

(y) Thanks

Wow you guys are serious business. What are those clear tubes? Samplesizers?

Learn something new every day. Thanks! And a big thanks to the TFP community, you guys rock. Been meaning to do this because you deserve it, finally did the right thing and became a Bronze donor today as well as subscribed to the TFP app (Android).

Plan to head to Wally world to get the Pool Essentials Chlorinating Liquid to start the SLAM this evening. But I did stumble on to a new issue and apologize if it belongs in the pump/filter section. I did all my brushing and backwashing last night after adding muriatic acid to lower the PH...

Thanks Texas. Addressing PH now. I will roll right in to SLAM tomorrow hopefully. Those joker's at the pool company we're dumping all sorts of junk in the pool. Seems like I come in high every year but by mid summer usually sit between 40-50 CYA. Silly question. With my CYA at it's current...

Finally got the pool opened (of sorts). Pool company left, still unsure of my abilities to do the opening from scratch. Maybe next year... Anyways, pool was green, Pool Company threw a bunch of chemicals in. Finally cleared up two days ago and I have been vacuuming, brushing and backwashing...

Great review, thanks for posting. Automation is on my list for 2019/2020. User interface looks really good and concise. A couple of quick questions for all that have been involved IntelliConnect System: - Can this be a DIY installation? I am fairly handy (especially with YouTube) or is this...

I have some of the caulk/filler that has peeled away and exposed the gap between my coping and concrete deck. Did a search on available products but wasn't sure which one to purchase. Any members able to link one that they use and are happy with. I can post pics if needed. Thanks!

Pool&Spatech I don't know what to say. You are freakishly wise! Without seeing my system and its setup, you nailed it. Read your post this morning and tackled the equipment. Followed your advice and sure enough looks like the outlet JVA (not sure if term is right???) is dead in the water. I...

I need to reach back to the pros here at TFP. You always save my butt, and a few dollars. I have a Jandy DE filter that typically runs at 18-20psi. Earlier today after testing chemicals and sweeping the pool out, pressure was about 21-22psi. Triggered a thought that I will have to backwash...

@kadavis....thanks for that. Cant believe I didn't notice that but sure enough, loosened top screw and set the bottom and reattached. Winner....

Oh, I didn't know/notice there was a tab on the bottom of the niche.
