    Jandy PLC1400 Replacement Cost

    After searching the forums, could not find what I was looking for that was current. My Jandy SWG got the dreaded 125/194 codes. Performed the acid wash, unit looks clean but sill throws errors. Guess I need to replace it. I looked on Amazon and see a direct replacement for $985. I was wondering...

    Jandy SWG Confusion

    I am going into my second year using the Jandy SWG. Last year worked perfectly, no issues on opening/closing. This year after opening the pool, things seemed to be operating fine. The aquapure panel and iAqualink app operating like it should. Several days later however, I went to check the...

    Spa Blower Shutoff/Timeout

    I recently ran into an issues with my blower for my spillover hottub. The blower that is installed is the Polaris 1-460-02 which is 16 years old and there are six jets. When I turn the blower on (via Jandy iAqualink app), it will run fine for approximately 5 minutes and the shutoff. If I try to...

    Jandy iAqualink iOS App Not Resposive

    I have had the iAqualink system for two seasons now, has pretty much worked as advertised. This year, no changes to anything (pool equipment, wireless gear, passwords, etc). The app connectivity has worked for the first month until a couple of days ago. I tried using the app but shows my pool...

    Running Low RPMs on VSP / Issues with Skimming?

    I just installed some new pool equipment. Really like what has been done and the performance so far. My question is: I have seen pool owners post that they run their VSP's under 2500 RPMs. Under 2000 RPMs. And even lower. Do you have issues with the skimmer collecting as well as it should? I...

    DE Filter Outlet Leak / Fix?

    After the completion of my new Jandy VSP, I noticed I have a slow leak (drips once every 10 seconds) at the outlet port on my Jandy DE filter, where it connects to the multi-port valve. I have attached a picture of the area. Is there an epoxy or some other product I can apply to seal it? I...

    Jandy iAqualink 2.0 Configuration (with VS Pump)

    So after a year of using a Raspberry Pi 3 for some pool automation (pump, cleaner, heater, spa bubbles, and lights), decided to buy an OEM product to avoid the issues my family was having. The Pi worked well most of the time but when it didn't, I heard about it but was never close enough to...

    Raypak 406A 7 Pin Remote Plug/Cable

    I am trying to configure my Raypak 406A heater for remote operation. I opened up the panel and the 7 pin connector w/ 3 wires is not there. I went through my bag of goodies and no luck. I searched on the web to order but for the life of me I can't find it. I did find a wiring harness pack which...

    DE Filter Pressure High (unusual activity)

    I need to reach back to the pros here at TFP. You always save my butt, and a few dollars. I have a Jandy DE filter that typically runs at 18-20psi. Earlier today after testing chemicals and sweeping the pool out, pressure was about 21-22psi. Triggered a thought that I will have to backwash...

    Inground Pool Light Titled out of Niche

    Hello. Swimming in the pool yesterday I noticed for the first time that the pool light is titled out and up at about a 20-30 angle from the niche. The screw is still securing the light fixture. In an effort to fix, I turned off all breakers and jumped in with the handy dandy screwdriver. With...

    Think Numbers Are Good - Are They?

    So after a lot of rain and some wildlife taking their last swim of their short lives, checked my pool hoping numbers are where they should be. While I was testing I heard one of my son's friends ask him "I thought your dad put chemicals in the pool that changed color if I pee in it". Kids...

    Pentair Mastertemp 400 #460736 Feedback

    Hi All. My Raypak 406 finally decided to stop working after 10 years or so. Looking to purchase a new one and was thinking of a new brand. The Raypak was so-so, became very finicky as the years went on. Anyways, after doing a lot of reading I keep gravitating back to the Pentair 460736 400KBTU...

    Jandy Power Center Programming

    I have had an issue with my Jandy system for about a year now that I am unable to figure out... When we had our pool install, we got a Jandy Aqualink Power Center with the Jandy Aqualink RS OneTouch Control Panel in the house. The OneTouch was awesome because we could program the filter...

    Need to Remove Booster Pump?

    Hello everyone. Just bought a Dolphin Nautilus robotic cleaner and love it. Thanks for all the information in the other forum tab. My question is I have a booster pump (that is on its last leg/season) that will no longer be needed. Obviously I don't have to cycle it through my control panel...

    Jandy Aquapure EI Thoughts

    So, my wife has been harassing me about converting our pool (22,000g gunite in Northern Virginia) to the SWG system. I have finally gotten around to it and have been trying to do some research on the products. I have read through the forums and was wondering if any other members have had any...
