Hi all! My pool was completed last August, and I spent the last month of the swimming season getting the hang if the TFP method. Over the winter, I read about the benefits of borates and decided to take the plunge. I only had to add acid every week or two, and all seemed well. Fast forward...

This is my first winter with the new pool and last night was the first time the freeze protection came on. I previously installed actuators on the valves for our water features, which are two scuppers and three deck jets, and programmed the controller to open the valves as part of the freeze...

Does anyone know where I can find replacement jets like the ones in the pictures below? I'm also looking for a cap so I can close off the bubbler in the event that i get a solar cover. They are 1 7/8" diameter. Thanks!
