I'm on my sixth season with my pentair pump/motor. Recently as last year to this year, I would some times wake up or get home and breaker would be tripped. Unfortunately, until just today, I was never in right place at right time to witness. Today, I was and saw "error ooof". I've searched...

Hello all, I wanted to get some back up filters for my Cartridge filter system. Do they make Generic filters that work just as well as the Heyward but at a fraction of the cost. The filters in my Samsung Fridge are 60 a piece. I buy generics for 20 bucks and they are working just as well, so...

I will be leaving for approximately 10 days. What steps can I take to ensure the pool is clean on my return. My cleaning lady "Nahla" will be vacuuming the pool for me but she does not touch the chemicals. Anyone have anything I should add, or should I set the Salt cell at 100%? Going to visit...
