I've had this Aqua rite pro for a lot of years. Every cell I have bought seems to last less then the previous one. The last one I bought only lasted 1 yr 10 months. Every time I have bought a new one the price has increased 50%+and although it says 3 year warranty on Haywards site this model...

We have a fiberglass pool and the old tile is starting to fall off. I looked at tile and talked to my local pool place but after 3x they don't seem to show up. I am confused about the tile, one guy said they just use regular tile installation method and the last guy said it comes in a roll for...

I was wondering if anyone else has used the POOLSTYLE leaf eater pool cleaner. It uses a garden hose instead of a vacuum. A bag goes on the top and water sprays up causing a negative pressure and sucks up the leaves. My pool guy says he uses it when they do service calls and he really liked it...

I have a Whisperflo WFE-2 1/2 hrsp pump on my pool. The seal plate had broken at the mounts so I ran all over town yesterday to buy a new one. Then I went to change the seal in the impeller and I broke the impeller housing. I've changed them before but this one was welded in the impeller. After...

This has been covered in the past with different models but I have never seen any info on repairing the AQR-PRO board so I figured I would share some photos on my repair. I already repaired this board years ago. The repair is the same as other units just the board is layed out in a different...

Is there a way I can test my Aqua Rite T15 cell? Last week I had the pool close to balanced and I added some Haviland Stain Eliminator. After adding the stain eliminator the CL dropped to zero and on came the algae. I added bleach a couple of days ago to bring the CL back up. Yesterday I had...

Do some or all chemicals get old and not work properly? I have the TF-100 kit but when I do the FC test it does not seem to change the color of the water anymore (R-870, R-871). All I get is a bunch of black chunks floating around and the inside of my test bottle is all stained. Being not...

I have a 0.5 hspr pump on my pool that I replaced a bunch of years ago. At the time I had calculated it takes 8 hours to turn over my pool so according to all the posts I had read here there was no reason for a larger pump. This year I have had two pool people tell me my pump is too small so I...

My T9 has given up the ghost so I am looking for a replacement. I want to step up to the T15 cell and am looking for suggestions on a good place to purchase one. Is there "knock off" units out there I need to be aware of? I called locally and they want from $625 to $930. I like to shop locally...

UPDATE Ok, I was having problems with the pool calculator but I figured it out. I fat fingered the pool size by an extra 0 and didn't realize it. I have it fixed now and it is working correctly.

When I add my DPD powder I don't get any change in color. Is this because I have no chlorine at all? My powder was old and turned black so I ordered a new container and it does the same thing with the new powder as well.

I am trying to figure out how much bleach to add to shock my pool. It has been a long time since I figured it out and can't remember how. Usually I just add a few jugs of bleach occasionally and never had any problems. I had too much salt in my pool and had to replace some water recently...

I have an aqua rite pro with a T9 cell on my pool and I was curious as to how accurate the salt reading are. I am waiting for some new refills for my test kit so I went to the pool store for a test. They reported a salt level of 5200 ppm while I am showing 3500.

I have a Pentair 011511 that looks like this. The pump is making very bad noises like a bearing is going. I am trying to take it apart to see what the problem is. I removed the motor and diffuser from the pump housing. How do you remove the impeller, does it take a special puller? I took the...

I was at my home depot today and they are clearing out there Intermatic timers and replacing them with GE. I picked up a T104R for $40. The indoor models are as low as $22.

My pump quit working on the weekend and I am looking for a new one. I took it apart to make sure there was nothing blocking it and it is clear. The impeller is missing a few pieces but it has been like that for awhile. If I shut the pump off and let it cool it will run for a couple minutes...

I received my Tf100 kit and started testing my pool :party: So of course I have a question. The pool is clear but I keep getting algae settling on the bottom of the pool. The leaves are starting to fall but we have been keeping up with removing them every day. My last two tests are: sept...

I started to post this in another thread then decided to start a new thread because of multiple questions. How fast can you add Muriatic acid? I have been told 3 different things from the same Leslies so i don't know what to believe. I have been trying to get everything balanced out so I can...

I recently purchased a aqua rite pro 25k system for my pool but have not installed it. After searching through a handful of posts on this site it seems everyone recommends going to the larger cell. We live in south Louisiana and run our pool 24/7 therefore I thought the 25k setup would/should be...
