I've been getting this for several months. I have uninstalled and re installed it and it will work a time or two and then I get the msg that a premium subscription is required. Today uninstalled, Google gave me the you're still subscribed message and I downloaded it again and it wouldn't let...

Hoping for a quick answer as I'm in the middle of this and it's too hot to do in the afternoon. I'm replacing my booster pump motor. When putting the spring portion of the seal on, it compressed when I pressed it on and I'm not sure if that's the trouble. See pic. But when I screw the...

I have to put in a new motor on my booster pump. For reasons, I am not 100% confident the current one is wired correctly, so I wanted to test to see if I should wire at 115 or 230. I wondered if you smart souls could verify what I've done and concluded. I used a multimeter set to ACV 200 (my...

So I tried the Jack's #2 Some stains were lifting. A Jack's guy was gonna come out to help but he got delayed by the big storm in Houston and won't make it out until later this week or next I got the pH and alkalinity right. But it's holding no chlorine at all and cya is less than 30. I've...

So I have a leak between my 3 way diverter valve and the actuator on top. I think they are both Compool (actuator is). the black 3 way valve has no markings at all, no part number no name. I assume compool since that's what the other older valves are. How do I know what o-ring kit will work...

I think my bearings are bad on my main pump. It's a century B2855 INYO pools said I need both 6203 and 6304. Does that seem right? What size bearing puller tool do I need? Will a 3" do it? Thank you -Marci

Hi all Electricity question. My control panel keeps going dark. It'll work for a day or so and then nothing. When I go look at the panel, no lights at all. The breakers don't show anything, they are in the on position. If I turn them all off and back on, it comes back online and seems good...

I had my plaster re-done last January. I picked a terrible contractor who left me with multiple unfinished problems, leading me to question the quality of everything that was done. After the plaster was in place he never came to look at it or anything so I have no idea if it was done correctly...

Hi all! I am replacing my booster pump motor. When connecting the red and black wires, do they wrap around the screw? or do I buy a connector like in the second pic? If so, which prong does it go onto since there are two for L1 and two for L2? I had assumed I could follow the wiring from...

Hi y'all, I have a very old Aqualink system. My web connect/antenna is so old it's B00088. It finally died. It's had water in it a bunch of times before but this time apparently was just too much.....A moment silence please.:oops: My control board is just as old. My question is how do I know...

Waterfall: I have a two way valve plumbed into the return line to my waterfall. Why would I ever want that shut off? The old waterfall was a natural looking rock one, so maybe it was to allow a trickle to full power, but my new waterfall would look silly with a trickle. Do I need a valve there...

I have a jandy control board Can anyone tell me if these two connectors are the same? Pretty big price difference Pentair 8023306 6-Position Terminal Plug-In Replacement ComPool IntelliTouch Pool and Spa Automatic Control Systems https://a.co/d/1nwTURh Zodiac Jandy Pro Series Terminal Bar...

Planning to install a heater bypass Have a new Jandy 3 way valve How do I set it such that the correct amount of water will go thru the heater when bypassing? Do I set it like one screw over on the valve so even in bypass it is a little open? Many thanks, Marci Picture of new valve for...

Hello all!!! I can't wait to show y'all some before and after of my pool remodel but goodness, it is taking forever to complete. 1) I think my pool may have been serviced by idiots, who knows, but I know the part in yellow is unnecessary. How can I best fix that ? just cap it at the blue line...

Second photo is difficult to see but there is a ring around both drains This is new plaster, finished in late December. It does not brush off It isn't really growing (I keep reading mustard algae grows quick) This pool remodel has been a nightmare and now this. I am in the process of SLAMing...

Trying to get thru a pool remodel and resurface. I only have a Polaris vacuum but need one that plugs into the skimmer for the new plaster. Recommendations on models or anything specific I should look for? Thank you, will post pics if it's ever actually done done;)

We are finally going to redo my 19 year old pool. The overall aesthetic of my house is cream limestone with brown variations, brown roof, brown cedar pillars I am thinking a brown based color scheme for the tile might look nice, but wasn't sure if it would affect how the water color looks...

My waterfall pump doesn't sound right. Is it bearings or should I look for something else? I think the motor is only a year old and it usually only runs 15 min a day Here is the main pump Main Here is the waterfall Waterfall Here are both together Both Thanks for pointers and opinions Marci

My pool is 18 years old and neglected, if you are following along My spa has a spillover and the exterior spa walls are Texas limestone. The mortar is cracked and eroding in several places and sending it into my pool. It's also got hard calcium deposits I have a request for an estimate But I...

Title says it all except I'm not clear what the little box the antenna connects to is called. Mine has never been mounted and I'm going to rewire it tomorrow. I want to mount it once I replace the antenna (next step). Can I mount it upside down? I guess if I tape it up there and it works...

My pump is no longer leaking but the there doesn't appear to be any power going to the iaqualink. I'm guessing I pulled the wire accidentally when contorting around my tight equipment space These wires appear to be the problem. They are very weathered so I labeled what I believe the colors to...

So I watched a video that confused me Which side of the spider gasket goes up, flat or ridged? Also if you glue it, do you also use lubricant on the top and/or sides? Thank you!!! Marci

So, I have a leak. First one is under the motor, new one is at the housing. See attached pics. How do I diagnose and repair these? The housing is ancient. Pump motor not as old. Am I looking at a whole replacement with housing? Thank you! (Can't seem to do line breaks on my phone)

I have a drip coming from my main pump. From the vicinity where the close up pic shows. Any pointers to how I might for diagnose the problem?

My pool was off for over a week, because PVC and I don't get along (see my other threads) It got algae and turned green. Got it running and added chlorine last night. Today it was at 0. Now I may have screwed up. Here's my current values: pH way high solid hot pink FC>40 never gets...

I bought these from Amazon TONGASS 2” MIP X 2” PVC HI-TEMP UNIONS - The 2-inch MIP threaded connector end is for a 2-inch FIP threaded pool pump connector while the 2-inch slip end is for a 2-inch PVC pipe. This high temp union coupling is a universal fit best used for pool pump installation...

Got the sand in the filter and the multiport on. I'm thinking of redoing some of the pipes. so this pic is the pump to the filter. Is that a nipple? and then would I need a female to hub adapter, followed by pipe, followed by an inline check valve (I read that is a good thing?), followed by...

Newbie question In this picture, in the yellow area where the pipe meets the black part of the assembly, if that is not sealed, what stops sand from getting in there and eventually into the pool? Is it the pressure?

Hi all, So I thought I had a Hayward S244T sand filter but it turns out I have an S244T2 filter. Manufacture date Oct 2016. I cannot seem to find the lateral assembly part number SX244DA2X, although I have now purchased the SX244DA not once but twice. (my filter was put in after the plumbing...
