I wanted to heat the pool with solar while at the same time, heat the spa with the gas heater. The Filter pump is configured to heat the pool or the spa. When the spa is heating with the filter pump, you can't use the solar panels. I have a Feature pump that normally just circulates the pool...

The pool is 5 years old. The Pebble Sheen was delaminating along one side and we decided to redo the Pebble Sheen. We chipped and hydro blasted the old Pebble out. We wondered if the delamination was due to the shell cracking, but we were not sure. Now we can see where the shell is cracked...

I have a situation going now in SoCal with a well established pool builder. After 3 years, the Pebble Sheen started to crack away from the shotcrete shell. Now 5.5 years later, I will start repairs. The builder first blamed the soil caused a hinge crack and no warranty given a soil issue...

Hi All, my pool was firs filled in March of 2015. in about August of 2018 (3.5 years), I noticed cracks as the pebble sheen (smoother version of pebble tech) started to move away from the "shot-crete" or gunite shell. It does not appear the shot-crete shell has moved and there are no water...

I recently installed a solar heater system to my pool. I have a question about the using the three heating systems when heating the spa or pool. Before solar, the heat pump was enabled as the priority heater. Both the heat pump and gas heater would come on together to heat the spa. Once hot...

I am at the final stages of completing a solar panel install. I have 14 - 12' x 4' solar panels on a ground mount a little below the level of the pool. I used 2.5" PVC between the pump pad and the solar panels, about 100' away. There are two sections of 7 panels each and the 2.5" PVC splits...

We had a windstorm that blew a lot of dirt and debris into my pool. I scooped out most of the debris but there was a lot of dirt left. The pool continued to circulate normally. After three days the water flow dropped way off to about 20% of the normal cleaning mode. I have 4 suction lines to...

I have a heat pump and a propane heater for my pool and spa. We don't heat the pool as it would cost a fortune. We heat the spa with the heat pump alone or with the heat pump and the propane heater. I would like to know how long my propane heater runs when I heat the spa. Has anyone hooked...

I'm planning to install solar heat to my pool now. I have the piping in the ground to the side hill area I plan to ground mount the 700 SF of panels. I got an estimate of $14,000 which I think is pretty good, but I want to save some money and do it myself. I was looking at the Vortex or the...

Does anyone have experience with the new Jandy IQPump? I think it is supposed to make it easier to control your variable speed pump speed. I have a relatively new system and find the Jandy app lacking in ease of use.

I needed to add a gallon of acid to my pool today. I have a 3-4' high tile wall spilling into a surge pond for the pump suction. There was some calcium build up on one section of the tile wall so I poured the acid down the wall to burn off the calcium. I used 14.5% HCL (Muriatic Acid) and now...

As part of the construction I added a water meter (I have a separate power meter too) on the auto-fill line to the pool. I have been averaging about 65 GPD of water. The pool is very exposed to the wind and is a full infinity edge design. I see other posts about the pool going down an inch or...

I have been learning about my Jandy iAquaLink setup and need some help. I've been able to schedule devices and set up the One Touch features. My issue is when I am in the Spa Mode, my VS pump runs at 3,400 RPM no matter what I try. I haven't been able to program the pump it for different...
