When I turn on the pool sweep, the pump comes on but the water flow to the sweep does not change. Where the hose connects to the wall - the water pressure does not increase. What/where do I need to check?

It's the front wheel on the side with two wheels (plus the little one inbetween), the other side just has one wheel. My pool supply store told me it was because the threads where the screws screw into have warn off and I need a new sweeper. I find that hard to believe. Does anyone know a work...

We are into day 3 of a terrible freeze. I drained and covered the equipment so I hope that I'm good there. We have been without power for mostly 3 days now. We get an hour every 12 hours or so. We were going to just run the pumps 24-7, but after almost 24 hours of no power, we realized the...

What's the best thing to use to tape small tears in the sweep tail? Will Gorilla Tape hold underwater?

Attached is a picture of my UWF for my Polaris (not sure of the model number but similar to the TR-35 - I'm sure mine is just an older model). I noticed that my vacuum was not moving, then I noticed the water gushing from the side valve of the UWF. Then i found and retrieved from the bottom...

This afternoon I cleaned the pump basket and backwashed the filter. I think I made a mistake after I cleaned the basket when I started a backwash cycle before I let the pump basket fill back up. I went ahead and backwashed several cycles. I let the pool run for about 15 minutes when I...

I used a "magic eraser" on the tile at the beginning of the season and it cleaned the tile well. Now it's back. I teach swim lessons so the pool is heavily used during the week. It's kind of a yellow looking scum. The magic eraser has worked well on the top of the tile, but there is still...

The tail to my sweep keeps getting caught on the wheel. The wheel came off about 2 weeks ago and I took it to the local pool supply and they put it back on. Since then, it continues to get caught behind the wheel. The wheel doesn’t appear to be loose but it keeps getting hung up. Any suggestions...

Although our pool is 6 years old, I'm still learning as each piece has trouble. This moment is the lights. Neither Spa light or Pool light will come on with either the PDA hand held control or the box when put into service mode. Since it's both lights, I'm thinking maybe a breaker got popped...

Our pool is 3 years old. Reading around here, I've realized/remembered we have a Jandy 2.0 variable speed pump that I think I run on full power when its running. Looking at my remote programming, I have the pump running twice a day (7-12 & 5-9), the cleaner running 7-9am, and our waterfall...

I have a AquaPure 1400. Earlier this week my salt level was low so I added two bags. I turned off the AquaPure while I did this, then the next day turned it back on and it is now running at 75%. Chlorine level was at 0 so I added 3 pounds shock. Today, still 0 and I noticed "no flow" on my...

Earlier this year we had a jet that was spewing air bubbles. We also noticed the flow over the hot tub was a lot less. I did my research and determined there was a leak somewhere. I followed the steps (here I think) and couldn't figure it out. I called the pool company to come check it out...

What is this and how should I clean it. In case it doesn't come through in the pics, it's a white residue that appears to be leaking from our rocks/stone onto the tile. It's on the side of the hot tub as well as stones under the waterfall. (No picture of waterfall) I've tried scrubbing with...

Much like KennyZ06 described in his thread, our pool is getting close to completion, but I am just now getting around to creating a thread for our build. We signed the contract around April 20, went through HOA approval, survey delays, etc. and finally broke ground around May 20. Although we...
