We've had the strangest problem with our waterfall. Pool is about 5 years old. Last year, it stopped working and I couldn't figure it out, so while the pump was on, I just jumped in the deep end of pool where there are two round grey things (returns of some sort?) on the pool wall. As soon as...

Just installed 4 new cartridges in my Hayward C3025 and after putting everything back together, I noticed two things: 1) The pump strainer basket is not completely filled with water. It's probably a good 2-3 inches from the top and the splashes aren't even touching the top of the lid 2) The...

Time to replace the filters, so I looked on the filter sticker and I have a Hayward C3025 and it says to use CX580RXE replacement filters. Looking at the Hayward site (Filter Link Here) it shows the filter as being 7 x 19 5/8. The filters that are in there are much taller than that (they are...

Our salt cell is dying and even though the salt level is the high 3,000's we're not getting any chlorine generated from it. Don't have the funds for a new one just yet, so for about a month, I've been using liquid chlorine but green algae appears every 2 days or so. PH is balanced, as is TA...

Little background: Over the past few months, I've noticed my chlorine levels not as high as they should be. I've had to manually add chlorine at times. My SWG salt level got to about 3100 then started dropping about 2-3 weeks ago and now won't give me a reading at all other than "Chlorinator...

I'm posting this for a friend who isn't very computer literate. She is in the middle of pool construction and she had her concrete decking poured after a rain about 10 days ago. The weather has been steadily increasing from the 70's to upper 80's/low 90's since the pour if that matters. Today...

Hello everyone, I've noticed the water flow seems a little low on our pool so I read the Hayward manual and it said a potential problem could be an air leak. I went out and noticed a lot of air bubbles in two of the three return lines in the pool. I cleaned the pump strainer basket (had quite...

Can't seem to get it to go up after adding salt. Added 40 pounds yesterday and ran for about 16 hours. I cleaned the cell about 6 months ago, so I'll do that again. Just used a test strip and it read 3000, so I'm hesitant to add more salt. Should I add another 40 pounds and see if that...

My neighbor asked me to test his pool since he sees me out there all the time checking mine. Anyway, we got the following readings: FC - 0 PH - 8.2 TA - 210 CYA - 25 He said his SWG has the chlorinator running at 100% and his salt level is at 2700, but still no chlorine when he does his...

Hi, we have a waterfall in our pool that runs off a Hayward Flow Max II pump. Tried to turn the waterfall on today and nothing. Went out there to check the pump, and it had just about 2 inches of water in it. The pump was on and it sounded like it was running. I could see just a little water...

Hello everyone, we have a 3 year old pool and it has a Hayward Navigator that came with it. I haven't been that impressed with it and have had to salvage parts from a buddy that had the same one and replaced it. Anyway, I think it's time for a replacement, as it pretty much does nothing to...

Pool looks good, I have the test kit I bought from TFP and everything except for my acid level is checking out good. I've been adding about 3/4 of a gallon a week for the past 3 weeks. Yesterday, I added a whole gallon around 6pm, then today I checked it and it's still in the dark purple range...

Over the past few weeks, my Pro Logic PL-P-4 model has started acting up. The display will flash the current reading (temp, salt level, etc) for about a 1/4 second then go completely blank. It's very difficult to read, so I called the manufacturer (pool is only 5 months old) and they...
