Walmart has a Taylor K-2005 for $20, is this a good buy? I know the only diff b/w 2005 & 2006 is FAS-DPD chlorine test, while the K-2005 has the DPD chlorine test. I've already have K-2006 but low in test refils so instead of buying a few refills which comes out almost the same buying this...

For some reason my spa water now is halfway after the schedule pump ran. It takes about 30 or 40 for the water to lowered but it stops right at all the water returned line I think. The only way to fill it back up is run the pump for all but if I run for spa only, the water remains low & it just...

So I have a rebar rust spot & my pool plaster is about 17 yrs. I've decided to replaster & fix the rebar. My expectations from reading is to either drill down to the rebar & cut it out or put the rust inhibitor around the rebar but the contractor told me that is not necessary. He cuts 2 lines at...

We have a power outage (about 30 mins) over the weekend and now the pump does not even making any noise. Is it dead? Before the power completely goes out, the neighborhood power was on/off a few times so I think this might have shorted the pump or completely killed it. I've tried to replace a...

so I have a variable speed pump HAYSPX3220Z2MER which the sound is a bit loud, it's like 6 years old. Is it time to replace or let it run until it dies? is there a part that I can replace to reduce the noise? It's working just a bit load and I am afraid it bothers the neighbor. Also if it...

See the attachments of my setup as I am leaning forward as option 2 as it still keeps my old chlorinator using tablets and without having to cut the existing setup. I would like to put the flow switch and swa together but I don't think there's enough space for me to do this. Any recommendation...

For some reason I don't feel that there is any suction from either the main drain or from the spa as I don't see where I can switch on/off from the skimmer or vacumn. See my pic for my pool plumbing. The Vac-Alert system remain at 0 as it doesn't seem to have any pressure coming in. Also on my...

Hi, I think my heater fused is burned so I am trying to find a replacement but so far searches return nothing could fit in the slot. The heater is Hayward and I hope this is the only issue. The fuse is 1.5A/250V and it is about 14mm. All I can find ones are either 10mm or 20mm, can't find...

so we have our pool built for about 8 years now and we hardly use the spa light, maybe 20 hr max, now it won't turn on, is this normal? TIA.

Hi experts, For some reason my lights won't turned on any more so I went to the pool electrical box and saw that it had tripped the surge proctector. I've reset it and turn it on and again it tripped it, what could cause this to be tripped? TIA.

So I took my pump to Leslie and they said my highspeed is throwing sparks but the low one is working fine, can this be fix or motor needs to be replaced?

so my motor is 2 speeds and the high speed is not working (sparkling) and I got a quote from Leslie for a single speed motor is $350 and they don't have 2 speed in stock. My currrent motor specs are 2.5 HP, SF 1.10, Frame 56Y, Volt 230, RPM 3450/1725. I think I want 2 speed but so far...

I just realized today that my pump hasn't been running the last few days. What I can hear is a click sound like the motor try to start but it get shut off immediately. Looks like I need a new motor. How do I know which motor if compatible with what I have? Brand: Emerson Model R63CXDRS-250...

My Aquabot just stop working on me all sudden. At first my fused burned so I've replaced it but it only run for like 30 secs and it stops. I can hear the pump running but it's not pupmping water like when I first start the vacumn. According to I-Love-MyAquabot, it could be a timer but I don't...

So I decided to borated my pool, so is that means I no longer require to put trichlor tablet and shock on the weekly basis like I've been doing the last 3 years? Also all I have to do is make sure the borage remain between 30 - 50? Do I still need to test pH, ta, and fc? Thanks.
