I have 3 year old Blue Works Model BLH60-A SWG. I moved my pool equipment to a covered warmer place this past summer so I did not close my pool this winter. I notice back in the fall the salinity read 2200 despite knowing it was higher - assumed it was due to colder water temp. Today...

I purchased a ThermoMart temperature control device. It allows for 2 wire remote control connection to a pool heater. According to the Hayward 400fdn manual there should be a junction box that has the place for the 2 wire connection for "remote control". I cannot for the life of me seem to...

Our heater exchanger was recently replaced after a small leak had started. I usually do the work myself but the pool equipment was being moved so I just had the local pool guy do it. The heater has worked well for a few weeks except for a smell like , in retrospect , would have been burning...

I'll try to make brief but I wanna be complete - we have a plastic shell pool (Barrier Reef) that has Hayward return jet. fittings. We recently had some equipoment changes to build a pool house and installed travertin deck. At the time of moving equipment we installed a Hayward VS pump. I was...

I have a Hayward natural gas 400FDN heater for my pool. We are doing a project where the heater will be moved into an enclosed garage like area. It will have side ventialtion (thus needing a positive pressure ventialtion system). Hayward suggested that I use a UHXPOSHZ14006 A couple of...

I recently got a Hayward VS pump - I haven't programmed it yet so it seems to run at low speed a lot. Frequently when I go to my SWG it reports "SLO" and seems to get stuck in that mode unless I turn it off and then back on. The salt level is approx 3000 - 3100 reported by the SWG and by...

We have a large order of travertine pavers ready for install - literally starting tomorrow! The installers in our area WV have not installed a lot of travertine as compared to points south. The bullnose pavers at poool edge will be set on the rim of a fiberglass pool (maybe 4 inches) and then...

Does anyone recognize this noise? I just replaced motor year before last https://share.icloud.com/photos/0a9y1Tw3F_08OC5tqrXJLwAow Hopefully this is accessible

An almost 10 year process - finally , hopefully, finishing pool decking, etc. Currently we have exposed pool equipment on the north end of our pool. Finally able to finish the backyard project with decking and a roofed kitchen/ pool house / bar area. It would seem that this enclosed area is...

My spa has a Balboa 58104 heater. The heating element from the factory is listed as 4.0Kw 800. It appears on line that the 5.5Kw element is the same size. Does anyone know if there is a problem with replacing the 4Kw element with the 5.5Kw element? I am sure I am wired sufficiently for the...

So I have a Barrier Reef 40 Coral Seas in ground pool. See attached. Skimmer on deep end along with 2 deep drains about a foot of the bottom. Only 3 inputs I have drawn the direction that I have diverted flow but it still leaves a lot to be desired esp flow in the shallow end. Any ideas? Are...

So tonight we got in the pool and it was so hot that it felt warmer than our hotub! Checked the heater and it was set on 103 deg for both the Spa and Pool settings. Just assumed one of my kids had turned it up (yet they adamantly denied it) .... And super odd ... 103 ???? Couple hours later...

I know that there are a thousand questions already asked but I was hoping someone could chime in on my individual situation. I have a new swg arriving on Thursday and I would like to get it installed Thursday evening. It appears that I have three choices. One choice would be to install it prior...

I've been using the forum (for maintaining my pool) for several years now --- THANKS Got a hot tub this past summer. Some issues with rising pH and overall water chemistry balance (seems a lot harder than the pool)! My biggest issue now is water foaming. I honestly think it has to do with...
