    Jandy Pro Nicheless LED

    Thanks Jason. My original pool builder did not have this extra length for my original Nexxus LEDs and Jandy's required 14" will not be sufficient to get it up on the deck. Also, these are nicheless LED lights that have no replaceable/repairable parts. The Nexxus assembly had gaskets to...

    Jandy Pro Nicheless LED

    So below is IMO an unsatisfactory answer from Zodiac, the manufacturer. I appreciate the skill of some pool professionals, but they are working off of the same document I have and the document is simply not complete. Alarmingly in the numbered steps for the install , they have you power up the...

    Jandy Pro Nicheless LED

    I am hoping to find someone out there that has installed these. I am replacing my 4 failed Nexxus Melody LEDs with the Jandy Pro units (JLUC10). This is the first time I actually had them in my hands to take a detailed look at them and the instructions. First the instructions say to leave 14"...

    Savi Melody LED Light Failures

    Anyone have info on the Jandy Pro Nicheless LEDs? http://www.zodiacpoolsystems.com/Products/Lighting/Nicheless-LED.aspx I have 3 of 4 Nexxus Blancs fail this year. They were installed in summer 2010 (one failed inside a month and was replaced by builder) They have limited use up here in NJ...

    Pool Deck Concrete Question

    I wonder about this too. As part of a renovation, the pool deck was redone in April of this year. In June, the satellite imagery for Google Maps was updated for our area. WOW, you can see it from outer space :-o

    Gap between skimmer and deck

    The PB finally came back for a second round to attempt to fix this. The first time he tried to use this gray round tubular insulation. We told him no, not a valid solution. Today he used spray foam. By the time I got home he had left and I am not sure what brand of foam he actually used. I...

    Gap between skimmer and deck

    PB is not out of the picture yet. I have little faith that his solutions are going to be good and needed a sanity check. I will post pics soon. It has been cool in NJ and I have not braved the waters. PB claims that deck installer (one of their subcontractors) should have used expandable...

    Gap between skimmer and deck

    Among our many disappointments with our pool contractor, we just noticed another problem yesterday while swimming. There is a >1" gap between the skimmer assemblies (two) and the concrete cantilevered deck. It seems that the skimmer is about an inch lower than it should be. This is pretty...

    TF-100 vs Pool Store using Pinpoint, why BIG diff?

    I am sure this has been hashed about countless times, but it is bugging me now. After having just finished a new plaster interior Memorial Day weekend, we had 14,000 gallons of water trucked in and the rest from our water company via hoses. So now I have been trying to get the chemistry under...

    led light conduit

    We are almost done with our renovation (a 35+ year old Sylvan Kidney). The scheduling of the plaster forced me to fill in the pool before the Nexxus Melody Blanco LED lights were installed. This meant the conduits (the gray PVC type) filled with water. We used to have a big 300 watt light on...

    renovation of kidney shaped pool

    Ted, Thanks for the reply. We have not started the work yet. We had to take a tree out because of a huge hole (rotted branch) and will need to have another trimmed and cabled as it is trying to split itself apart. Oh the joys of home ownership. But back to the pool. I think I understand...

    renovation of kidney shaped pool

    I am about to embark on a renovation of a 36 year old Sylvan concrete kidney shaped pool. It is about 32x16 - slightly wider in the deep end. There are 2 skimmers, 2 main drains and two returns. The skimmers are being replace as well as all of the plumbing. I want to relocate the return...
