My pump seems to be dead. No lights or power of any sort showing up on pump, but my SWG seems to be getting power and panel seems OK. I do see moisture in the display, not sure if water damage or what. What would be basic troubleshooting steps (I think it's 7.5 years old)..

Hi, I ordered a new 521510 acid injector valve for my IntelliPH recently and I got a part number that searching, is actually 522513Z though the box actually does say 521510. But I do see the 522513Z used interchangeably as the "acid injector check valve". My concern is there is no tubing, on...

I have a theory that since I have an Intellichlor that injects acid and it's before the salt cell, I probably don't need to give my IC40 a cleaning/acid bath. Is this reasonable or should I pull it out and clean it? Seems like it's pretty much always getting a pretty good acid bath, even with...

Hi - so earlier this year I got the IntelliFlo VS installed and it worked perfectly, quiet, etc... But about 3 weeks ago I've noticed a 'whistling' noise coming from it. Nothing too loud, just kind of a consistent whistle especially audible when it's on a low or medium speed. At high speed the...

I posted this question over on the Pumping Station, but I guess it actually belongs here. Mods, feel free to delete the other thread. So my IntelliPH has been working great but recently (it seems to have happened after I had some backpressure issues which I think I have fixed) the feed tube...

A few quick questions... I see in the manual that with the bog standard IC40 you can easily change the self-cleaning cycle by holding down the less/more buttons. If I'm using an EasyTouch is this setting just buried somewhere in the settings? I was hoping to see it in my handy-dandy Screenlogic...

Hi - My IntelliPH was dry so I added 4 gallons of acid to it. I then did a manual pump and the overflow valve leaked what looked like a few ounces of acid, maybe half a cup or something. I got a big pan of water and doused it over where it leaked and on top. A few questions.. Will the acid eat...

Hi - so I recently got the system installed (see sig) and I'm trying to get it so I have a "Low Speed" that runs at maybe 1800-2200 RPMs (enough to run the IC40) and a "High Speed" that runs at ~3000 RPMs to clean the pool. But I can't make the IntelliChlor+IntelliPH work in this scenario. I'm...

Hi - I just got my new system + IntelliPH installed. I went to pour in the acid to the canister and thought I was pretty careful and kept my head as far away as possible while pouring, but got a nice whiff of acid vapor. Nothing serious just a quick cough and I moved away. Is there a safety...

Hi, I'm thinking of renovating my system and getting an EasyTouch 4 (or maybe 8)+IC60 salt cell, CCP 520 filter, IntelliPH, and an intelliflow pump put in. Talking to the installers around here their prices come in very high. Based on pricing I can get on Amazon for the equipment, plus labor, I...

Just a small note - I live in Phoenix and over the winter there are a huge number of birds who make it their mission to bathe in my rock-waterfall. I would go out and my pool would have several feathers in it, and a weird gross scum was formed in my skimmer from all the filth. I decided to get...

Hi - so I'm in the process of basically rebuilding all my pool equipment, plumbing then filter then automation then pump when it dies. Bit of a long slog below with some questions... I have an existing home automation system (Vera/Z-wave) so I am intrigued by the Intermatic PE653RC. I would...

Hi - here's a picture of my current plumbing situation. I don't like it. Among other things, I'm not getting enough suction (even with main drain off) on my vacuum for my PoolCleaner, I only get 8 or fewer RPMs. I am also interested in adding an Intermatic panel (I'm using Z-wave automation...

Hi - I've been tinkering with the idea of a new pump since mine seems underpowered a bit these days, e.g. I just got a Pool Cleaner and it only turns like 8 RPMs and they recommend 11. I'm going to tinker with the plumbing a bit first, but if I do buy one... I see a lot of people recommending...

So I'm thinking of replacing my G2, it's getting pretty old and doesn't really hit the whole pool very well. Seems a lot of people love The Pool Cleaner. One question - can I leave that thing in all the time? They say to take it out when people are swimming or when shocking (which should be...

I'm considering a SWG for my 30k plaster pool, but it seems most of the mainstream models top out at 40k gallons. I'd like to get the Aquarite I think just because it's ubiquitous. Seems like the next step up to the 60k cell systems will cost me several hundred more but people seem to...

Hi - I bought a poolskim and I'm trying to replace some of the jets with the slot type. I managed to get the inlet eye out for the one I hooked the poolskim up to, but the other one is stuck. It's kind of an idiotic design and seems prone to the tabs breaking off. Here is a picture: I...

So unfortunately I came late to this site and my pool is kind of a mess. We had about 2 weeks where the pool was green, I shocked the **** out of it and the pool guy added some chlorine and it came back but now I've finally been doing my due diligence and reading around here. I bought a test...

Hi, We moved into this house last year and shortly afterwards the pool light stopped working. I'm finally getting around to fixing it. Anyway, I am 95% sure it's a 12V light fixture because there is a black transformer next to the power switch for my light. Is this a valid assumption? House...
