Hi all - did a search but didn't see anything exactly like this out there.... I have a Hayward Pool Vac Ultra (mixed feelings - 2nd unit - when it's good it's great, when it's not, I hate it). Regardless, about 2 months ago, it started wrapping the hose into a know every single time it runs...

OK - I don't know where else to post this... anyone ever had the kids dump a quart of bubble mix into the hot tub while it's running? They're dissipating now but I nearly flipped my lid when my wife called me out to this scene. :shock: :? :twisted: Any concerns about permanent issues...

A few months ago I replaced this dead 2 HP motor and it has been sitting in my garage ever since then.... I don't know how bad it is and the burnt wires are hard to see in the pics... 1. can anything useful be done with it? (e.g. can someone refurb or fix it) 2. if not, anything I can do with...

Hi all - I hope this is the right forum... Looking for some advice on replacing a Jandy Industries controller that has just about given up. When we bought the house in 2001, it was here and working fine (probably went in about 1996). (FYI - only picture I can find online...

:?: Hello all - not sure where I should post this, but looking for a good pool guy in Plano TX (suburb of Dallas). I generally TRY to take care of everything myself but sometimes get in over my head (e.g. my current battle with my pump motor replacement) I'm planning to go BBB full on this...

OK - I know something has to be wrong here.... :grrrr: This is the 3rd post in my ongoing saga... new 1hp pump motor (century centurion 1081) installed today with new impeller and diffuser recommended by parts guy (old motor was an oversized 2hp motor). When I flipped it on, it made a...

All - so I just finished my saga (also in this forum) of breaking down and apart my dead pump motor. I'm just planning to buy a new motor on line and install myself. This motor was installed about 4 years ago by an overzealous repair guy who picked a "much bigger and better" 2 HP -- and to the...

Hi - First time poster looking for some advice here. I'm pretty handy around the house and wanted to take a crack at repairing my pool pump / motor. It has stopped running for well over a month now and whenever I reset the house breaker and turn it on, it flips the breaker in the main house...
