I am having issues with the water feature draining into the pool. I had searched similar threads to no avail. The water feature which resembles a spa but with no heat and has a spill over, is draining after pool pump to the feature is off. The are two pumps. One for the pool and one for the...

I am aware that the run should be one piece all the way to the panel or junction box, but should I be able to splice the pool light wire that comes out of the conduit (above ground). It is a little short. Also it doesn't mention a gauge. Is it 12 gauge?

I need a second opinion. I have an Intermatic CTL Distribution Control Panel which feeds three circuit breakers for my pool equipment and accessories. One of the circuit breakers feeds a GFCI connected to the pool light. I was advised to remove the GFCI as the circuit breaker should do the job...

I just bought and installed an X10 WS13A switch because my old one was not compatible and I was advised that this one is supposed to work with LED lights. No matter how many times I turn it off and on, it won't switch colors. It goes back to blue and it just switches on its own to green then red...

I just got a Pentair 5G Intellibrite LED light installed. I have it connected to an X-10 switch. When I turned the power at the breaker it just started flashing without me pushing on the x-10 button just like a disco ball or a medium speed strobe light. It started flashing not just circling...

I am installing a new Pentair Intellibrite LED light 120 V. My old light had corrosion and also the GFCI was tripping. The electrician just capped off wires until I could order my new pool light.

I am going to replace my pool light soon and while reading on how to change it, it seems some people talk about leaks or dry niches vs flooded ones or leaks at the niche. I thought all niches are supposed to be flooded. In which circumstances would I use a rubber plug at the end of the niche...

Does anyone have recommendations on LED pool light to replace an incandescent Pentair Amerilite? Should I go with the Pentair Intellibrite or is there a better one yet compatible out there? Also is it necessary to fill up the hole in the niche after the cord is pulled thru? There seem to be...

The GFCI on the side of the pool panel won't reset. This GFCI appears to be connected to the pool light. This doesn't seem to affect the pool light operation, however I noticed I have had to change the pool light more frequently than I should. I have changed it 4 times in 12 years. This is a...

Hello, I hope someone could help me out, I have a Pentair Whisperflo 1.5 HP two speed pump. The pool pump runs fine on low speed but when switched to high speed, after making a little different louder humming noise than usual, it starts for about 2-3 seconds and shuts off. If I am fast enough...
