    Pool Pump Control

    Hello all, been a while since I last posted... I would like to know if anyone has an automated solution to shutoff a pool pump if a low/no water pressure situation arises (without paying for a commercial type system like Aquarite or Hayward!). Background: A few years ago, we were travelling...

    Salt PPM - AquaRite Hayward T-15

    Good morning all, Yesterday, I realized that my SWG was not generating much (long story - probably for about a month or so! my water was still crystal clear) and I didn't realize that I should (re)calibrate/reset the system every so often and was relying on the average reading it was giving me...

    Selling a pool heater

    I have a Hayward "Comfortzone" brand, 300,000 BTU propane heater that I no longer need (installed solar panels). It's approximately 15 years old, but it works great. Just got too expensive to operate - even as a backup. Anyone have an idea as far as what I should ask for price to sell? Don't...

    Solar Pool Heater

    Great forum - learned a lot by lurking about the past month or so! We live up in Maine and, though our weather hasn't yet been the greatest this year (a little on the cool side so far this spring), we're still getting several sunny days in a row and it seems like our solar system isn't as...
