Just replaced one of my pool lights (color logic) and to say it was a bear is an understatement. The lights were installed when the pool was refurbished 6 years ago and the installer shoved some type of sealant, which turned rock hard, about a inch into the conduit. My question is do I really...

My sons pool was eating chlorine, so did a OCLT and from 8ppm at sundown dropped to 2ppm at sunrise. He started a slam and with a 70 cya set a 28ppm chlorine level and has been able to maintain that level with a lot of chlorine additions. For the past three days, the water has been very clear a...

My son has a Pentair sun touch controller, IC40 SWG, manufacture date 8/09/22 with external power supply. The cell is producing chlorine and functioning normally with all lights steady green. The external power supply has a green light on the circuit board. The problem is the sun touch...

My son has a pentair suntouch system and an IC 20 that has bit the dust and he wants to upgrade to an IC40. I looked through the manual but I can’t find any info if this can be done with the existing equipment/power center. So 1, can he do this and 2, does he need to change any system settings...

It seems every renewal, pool math doesn’t update my subscription renewal. Payment for the next year was charged by Apple on 11/2/22. The app showed my expiration on 11/15/22. I’m now locked out. Why does this continue to happen…very frustrating.

Weather forecast is showing no rain for next 10 days. What are the effects of evaporation on pool chemicals if no rain and no fill water is added. I believe, for example, that the salt ppm would be higher. But what about all the rest i.e, chlorine, ph, alkalinity, cya and calcium hardness?

I’m unable to sign in to the app. It says something went wrong, try again. I’ve log out and reinstalled the App with no success. Appreciate your help.

I’ve recently renewed my subscription and continue to be told premium subscription required. I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app and signed out and signed back in again and it seems to fix it. After logging out and then logging back in again, the same issue pops up again. Also on the overview...

Since the pool was resurfaced, I’ve been dealing with efflorescence on the glass tiles under the spillway. I’m in the pool often so the constant cleaning hasn’t been too bothersome. Lately, the efflorescence seems to be less than in the past, maybe it’s wishful thinking, but I was wondering if...

The noise the motor is making tells me it’s on the way out. Can anyone tell me what two speed motor and hp this is…thanks.

Been searching for the above remote and finally found one on eBay. The unit arrived and is in excellent condition both inside and out. The problem is I can’t get the “teach wireless” to work. It continues to show teach wireless not successful. I have a wireless wall unit that communicates with...

Looking to buy a working Hayward AQL-SS-RF spa side remote, not the AQL2 model. If you have one you no longer need/want, please let me know…thanks.

I have an Aqualogic PS8 automation system with software revision 2.93. My spa side remote (aql-as-rf) no longer works and cannot find parts or replacement. I’ve read that the aql2-ss-rf will work if I also replace the antenna with the aql2-base-rf at around $500 for both. Appreciate if someone...

Would the flow rate be similar with 3hp two speed pump on low as a 1 1/2hp single speed pump?

Thanks to TFP for the education they have provided me. After resurfacing the pool and spa in 5/17 and using the TFP method for those 3 years, my pool has consistently been clear and sparkling. Since the pool was built 23 years ago, I’ve had a 1 ½ HP (SF 1.10) single speed pump that I’ve...

Installed a Hayward H250IDPL2 in January 2007 and has worked flawlessly until today. Living in SW Florida it is not used excessively so every couple of weeks I fire it up and let it run for 5 or 10 minutes. This morning I fired it up, it ignited and then shut down. It tried to restart, could...

After firing my pool service shortly after my replaster, I’ve been following the TFP method for the last year and a half. I’m proud to say my pool consistently sparkles and have had zero problems. So thank you to all the forum folks who provide the wealth of information that enables me to do...
