    Upgrading MT400 board

    I'm in the process of ordering a new stack flue sensor for my MT400 and the tech that was out today suggested I upgrade my control board as well. He spoke pretty highly of the new 6 button panel over the older model. I installed my current MT400 in late 2020, so just before the cutover to the...

    Replacing Prowler 920

    Looks like my motor went out on my Prowler 920 after 3 years. It's only running for a few minutes before it stops and subsequent attempts to start it has no effect (the light on the robot won't even turn on). I'd prefer not to drop $650+ on a new motor and would rather go another route if...

    Busted pipe, clay/ mud in pool

    Recently I drove a T-Post right through one of my returns which has led to a multi-day repair in between my normal job. We've recently had a ton of rain and while the pipe was open, some of the muddy water found its way into the pool. The repairs are complete and now I need to get my pool back...

    Return line break - need help getting things running again

    I've had a horrible string of luck so far this year with plumbing issues and Saturday was probably the worst luck so far. In an effort to prevent a tree from falling over, I drove a T-Post right through on of my 2" return lines for the pool. Thankfully it hit right at a 90, so repair was fairly...

    IC40 indicating lost communication

    We had a power surge yesterday and it appears it may have impacted my SWG. I received an alert that it had lost communications, however I can still set the output from my phone and see the corresponding change on the cell. The cell shows a red light for flow and the cell indicator lights flash...

    New pool, trying to get established and having issues

    I'm new to this whole pool thing and am having some issues with my first run of chemistry tests. For background, we filled the pool last Thursday and began running pumps Friday. We were supposed to do the full startup in Saturday but a little hurricane delayed those plans until Monday. During...

    New pool-just filled!

    So, as the title suggests we have a brand new pool that I just filled last night. We haven't even finished the full start-up from the pool builder yet. The only thing that has taken place so far is the PB dumped 2 gallons of muriatic acid into the pool and started the pumps on high to start...

    Appropriately sized water feature pump

    Well, we made some last minute changes to our pool after seeing the size of the wall where our water feature was. We're upgrading to a 5' waterfall feature using CMPs classic series (Custom Molded Products Waterfall 60" Natural Wonders with 6" Lip White - 25577-530-000, Large and Elegant | USA...

    Construction underway - Houston

    Well, construction has finally started! We had to go back to the builder for a number of things based on the recommendations given here and I'm much more confident that we are getting the pool we want that is better built and ended up costing us less money. So, for those still in the process...

    First pool build! Excited but apprehensive. Bid included

    We're in the final stages of selecting a contractor for our pool and want to make sure we're not overlooking anything or that we're not being naive about other things. We're located just west of Houston and with all of the research I've done, I'm getting to the point of analysis paralysis (and...
