Does anyone know what the bottom of these looks like or what could possibly be leaking? Is there a seal on the bottom?

My Jandy Auqualink is programed to turn the pool on at 7am and has been doing so for 3 years. Everything else is working fine but the auto on and off is not working. I can turn everting on manually from the remote but it doesn’t shut off at the scheduled time. I did have the pool builder out to...

I heard a clicking/buzzing from my heater while pump was running. Heater was not on. The pad had an error message that said Fault Check Versaflow. Then it also had a message saying maintain spa heat with a temp reading of 19 degrees which was not correct since actual water temp was 70. I flipped...

First time I’m cleaning this cell. 2 seasons. Is this considered a lot of calcium or not that bad? Also, I’m still dealing with “no flow” once in a while and wondering if this will finally clear it

My psi is consistently at about 20 psi. The last 2 days it has been at 16. What could cause that? I have oak trees that have been causing a mess and I’m emptying all baskets multiple times a day. If the filters were dirty my psi goes up, is there a scenario that dirty filters could cause a drop...

After having the salt cell off all winter I tried to turn it on today but I’m getting No Flow and the cell isn’t coming on at all. Cell is 3 years old. I have not cleaned it yet. Could that be the issue? Also, I’m not sure what my actual salinity is and I’m just relying on what the pad says...

Has anyone used Behr Premium Wet-Look Sealer on their stonework? I have to apply a sealer this spring but I've read some reviews that aren't great. Any other suggestions are welcome. I do want wet-look

Old patio peeling. I want to redo the old patio stain but I’m hesitant to use acid for the prep because I don’t want the run off to go onto my newer exposed aggregate deck. 1, is there a way to confirm this is acrylic or acid stain etc. is there a product I could just go over it with? Any other...

Does anyone have pics of their temporary (or not temporary) pad shelters? I’m trying to get ideas. I’m thinking about framing something I can put up quick for the deep freeze days and take down right after. I had mine wrapped in blankets for the 3 days below freezing and now just leaving one...

What is the best product to redo the caulking? NP1?

Is there anything similar to a hammerhead style vac for residential use? This time of year I get A LOT of debris in my pool from acorns to leaves and dirt. My Polaris does fine for standard use all year but in the fall it’s a bandaid on a grenade wound. And I don’t want to use the suction vac...

My air temp is always reading about 10 degrees lower than actual temp. I think I’ll just replace the sensor. I can’t seem to find a good video but it looks like a straight forward plug and play swap? Once I get the new one in there won’t be anything that has to be reset or calibrated?

I got a 4” wire brush to work on some dirty areas of plaster. I did a small area and got amazing results real fast. Is it ok to use it frequently? It’s designed for pools and it’s not too rigid. I want to do the whole pool over time but want to be sure I’m not hurting anything. Has to be less...

I have stains on my plaster that are from acorns that sank and deteriorated on the bottom. Being organic they should clear on their own but my question is whether I can or need to elevate the FC to a specific level to get this done quicker.

Has anyone used either of these tools?

How much of a concern is this rust inside the filter?

My warranty will up soon on my Polaris cleaner and once it is , I am done with it. If I switch to the Dolphin is it a similar set up where I’ll need a Dolphin booster pump etc? Will the current wall connection inside the pool have to be changed or is that universal ?

Lost power in Texas for 3 days. We have it back today. Pool is green but my test results seem fine? FC 2 CC 0 CYA 40 Should I still SLAM? Is the water safe? Can’t imagine it is. One thing to note is the pool had ALOT of debris in it from the storms. The pool was clear yesterday but all the...

I am replacing my lights for the 3rd time in less than 3 years. Still under warranty. My question is whether I have the ability to upgrade down the road? Or do I have to stay with the same lights for fitting purposes etc? My research shows I’m not the only person who has bad luck with these lights

Owners manual says to unplug the yellow connector from the vessel. I don’t see a yellow connector. Is it the plug on top? And does that just slide off?

My salinity reading is H.H and error code 145. The manual says that code is for high salinity. As if last week I was low salinity, purposefully since I had shut the cell off for the winter. Today I did add salt. Only 2 bags. Could that code be showing becaise I added the sat this afternoon and...

Is the “flow” indicator telling me something? I know I’m not making chlorine and I’m low salt. But curious is it’s telling me something else

We have some extended freezing temps coming to east Texas later this week. It looks like a full 2 days below freezing and one night in single digits. Is there anything I should do beyond letting the system run the whole time?

I know the solution is move on from Polaris which I’ll do once the warranty on this one is done. Until then, I am now on my 4th booster pump in less than 2 years. My builder says it’s a known issue with Polaris. Is it at all possible I am doing wrong with it? It happened this last time after...

I know for the right price anything can be had, but are there companies that make custom covers that would work with the raised wall? Also would need it to be mesh and not a full close because I still run it through the winter and the hot tub spills over. I need something to help me keep leaves...

Just recently I’m noticing the water level in my hot tub is dropping about 1/2 overnight. I base the level on the spillover that it would normally be in line with. Is it possible I am noticing this now because I’m only running the pump a few hours a day and it’s off up to 20 consecutive hours...

Is anyone familiar with the certification courses for pool cleaneing Businesses? In Texas you are required to be certified but I’m just not sure what organization is actually accepted

I’ve noticed my backup valve basically being very heavy and sinking down. Seems to be holding water. Vacuum works fine but I assume there’s an issue. Does anyone know much about these? Do they go bad?

Does leaving a Polaris out on the deck in the sun cause harm? Twice now when I’ve left it out on the patio in the hot sun it basically takes a day of being back in the pool to run properly. It will move slowly with little power until it’s been in the pool for a few days then it’s back to normal...

If I adjust the actuator position using the toggle switch will it automatically go back to its set position when I shut the pump off or switch from pool to spa mode? Or do I have to manually get it back to where it was?
