So I had an issue where I put 240v to my (as hooked up) 120v heater. Well after replacing a handful of things, I got the heater back up and running however I did notice a long buzzing noise when igniting. I had the heater running a few times late spring and then not running for the past few...

Hey Folks, Hoping you all can point me in the right direction. Went to turn on the heater for the first time this past week and the touch panel wasn't coming on. On first inspection, it looks like a spider crawled in between the touch panel in the plastic on the cover to make himself (or...

So I just finished wiring up my Globrite LEDs (3 of them). When I first turned them on, only two of them worked which turned out to be a faulty LED. After the service guy came and replaced the faulty one, he called me and said that you can turn them all on once, and when you flick the switch...

OK, really need some help as I need to have this done this weekend for my final inspection. This is the 100w transformer to run my 3 Globrite lights off of. The manual for installing is about as clear as mud so I could use some help. Each LED has a black and white. I have 120v line ready to...

Hey folks. I'm so close to done it's killing me but two more issue I'm having with wiring. Let me start by saying that Pentair leaves a lot to be desired in the manual category. They really are not clear and the pictures in the manual don't always match what I have. Pentair Mastertemp 250...

Hey folks, I'm in the end stages of having my vinyl inground finished at my house. I opted to do the electric myself which has been fine so far. Wiring the Superflo and the LED lights looks really straight forward however the instructions on the Mastertemp are a bit cryptic. First of all, it...

So I would really like to close my pool myself this year. We had A&S here last year and I stayed and watched. The process doesn't look very difficult so I would really like to save the $200 this year I have drained the water just about below the tile line (per their recommendation). The...

Actually that's really my question. Just wondering which is more effective. I figured having the cover on would keep the sun from eating the chlorine, however I don't know if there are gasses created that need to be released.

Hi everyone. Well we are in year two of our new pool and loving it. (I will post pics once the new grass grows in :) ) I am planning on following the BBB this year. I did not purchase a new Nature 2 cartridge or more trichlor tabs, however my garage has 12 bottles of bleach in it. :mrgreen...

We had our pool put in last year so I figured if I was going to spend all this money on a pool, I might as well get a good test kit. Well, I bought the Taylor 2005C. The question is, I still have a lot of the reagent left in the bottles. How long is this stuff good for? I always keep it...

I was thinking about building a gazebo for beside the pool. I was thinking about 14x18 or so which would leave enough room for dinning table and a small bar. The question is, what type of wood would you use. I have worked a lot with pressure treated in the past, but when I get it, its always...

So I just got my new solar panels (wife called me :party: ). Got them from Solarcovers.com. There are 4, 2.5'x20' panels for a total of 200sq ft (about 1/3 of my pool). I am going to rack mount them to avoid climbing on the roof (which is steep :( ). My question is on the plumbing. The line...

We put in a 29k gallon concrete IG last year (kind of lagoon shape 41'long by 18' deep and 25' shallow). It's around 750sq ft. The pool is on the east side of the house and from May through the end of Sept gets aobut 8hrs of sun per day. Needless to say, we had an 85+ degree pool last season...
