I have a Jandy control system and I have it running my winter schedule which keeps my VS pump running at a slow speed most of the day and then it ramps up a bit overnight. I also have freeze guard that turns the pumps on at a higher speed if the temp dips low. A couple of times in the past...

My pool is in need of some repairs and I haven't been impressed with the work done by the last two masons I've had out, so I think I'm going to try to DIY it. Looking for any tips, recommended products, etc for performing the following repairs: 1) Some of the rocks along the backside of my...

This will be my first winter with a saltwater pool and looking for info on what I need to do... I'm located in the Dallas area, so I get a couple months with cold temps and probably a few weeks of below freezing weather. I don't really "close" my pool, I just change the filter to run overnight...

I'm installing a ph Dosing pump - Hanna Instruments BL-100 - and ran into a slight problem with the wiring. I'm hoping someone may be able to help so I don't have to wait for tech support on Monday. I have a Jandy RS pool controller and I want to power the pump through a relay, and the relay...

There are 2 things I can't figure out with my Aqualink system. Hoping someone here may know the answers... I have an Aqualink RS with iAqualink 2.0. In the help section it shows REV T.2, FM Rev 4.0.6-e, and on the bottom of the screen it shows v1.5 RS. Additionally, my main pool pump is a VSP...

I just installed a Jandy Aquapure SWG, got all my levels right and just turned it on today. The salt sensor on the Aquapure is consistently 300ppm higher than the Taylor K-1766. When I tried to follow the instructions to calibrate it, I ran into a snag. Everything I read says to hold the...

Las year I asked my former pool company to replace my pool light fixture because the last replacement bulb only lasted around 4 or 5 uses. They tried but ended up telling me that they thought the conduit must have collapsed because they couldn't pull the cord out. Today I had to drain a bunch...

I got a pool cleaner recently and quickly got tired of disconnecting the power supply to bring in the house every time it was going to storm. Looked around to see what other people were doing and there were a lot of creative solutions. I ended up opting for a pre-made enclosure and I think it...

First time pool owner, and my pool was already built when I bought my house. This is probably a dumb question, but when completing my profile on TFP I see 3 options for surface: Vinyl, Plater and Fiberglass. I think my pool is Gunite, but how do I know for sure what it is and what should I...

I had what I thought was going to be a small project this weekend to change out the junction box, GFCI and switch that feeds my pool equipment. It wasn't properly sealed and got water damage (rust). I've done a good amount of electrical work in the past so this seemed like a pretty simple...

I'm going to be installing a saltwater system for my pool, and I figured as long as I'm going to be doing some plumbing work, I should see if there are some adjustments I could make to improve my setup. I feel like there may be some 90 degree joints I could eliminate, but not certain. I assume I...

I'm going to convert my pool (back to) saltwater and looking for some input and advice as I plan things out. My pool is around 11,000 gallons. For a little background, when I bought my house, the pool had a saltwater system installed, but the cell was depleted, the controller was...

Noticed my breaker had tripped so I reset it, and within a few seconds it tripped again. When I opened up the wiring compartment on the pump, it was charred and you could smell the burn. Noticed that when the pump was installed, they didn't seal one of the openings into the compartment, so...
