    Aqualink down?

    So interesting observation. Since powering on my system this spring. I noted that, when using the web interface (not the app), the interface times out and i need to relaunch it. This was new behavior for this year. The timeout for that window was rather short. After last nights outage...

    Aqualink down?

    It’s not an app or local hardware problem. It’s on the server side. (Problem in the cloud lol)

    Aqualink down?

    When my swcg cell dies I am fairly certain I will just switch out the entire panel for intellicenter. I addition to your reasons, everything else on my pad is pentair and I cannot use the flow settings on my vsf pump because the jandy panel can’t talk to it that way. Even my heater has the...

    Can I open sand filter and add CYA granules on top of sand?

    Rather sure you will not want to add CYA directly to the filter because of the acidity of CYA. Just use the old sock on front of a jet method.

    Anyone open in NE yet and have lower water than usual?

    Sudbury. Beginning of April i looked and was just about to overflow out the top of the skimmers. I pumped it down 3" or so to get it to the top of the skimmer opening in the pool wall. After this past weekends rain, i had to take out another 2 - 3". I thought they pumped it out too low in...

    Full refurb, or just tile?

    Well yeah - its outrageous - but everything is and it seems like market pricing at the moment. Its 3 years too late for competitive pricing. unfortunatley. I know my pool buil costed about 2x what it would have costed in 2019.

    Full refurb, or just tile?

    in addition to my other post, Triad is the go to for cantilever concrete decks. Did you try them? Andrew’s outsources concrete decking to triad. Every job is different, but your pricing doesn’t sound outrageous for the current times. Labor is a huge problem for the pool companies, and you...

    If you want pebbletech/pebblesheen it will be installed by kadison pool plastering, no matter what builder you use, since they have exclusivity in most of New England. therfore you can just go right to them for an interior refresh. I believe they also do full builds, but the plaster and tile...

    PB Wants Plaster & Fill Before Paver Deck Finished ?

    Yeah, we’ll mostly. All the foot traffic, the tape started letting go and wind was blowing the plastic.

    Water Temp Sensor location with Separate Pool & Spa Pumps

    This doesn't look or sound correct. What is the label on the pipe 1, and pipe 2 ? It appears those both say spa drain? They look like dedicated runs and they look like they go the the channel drain in the spa. The channel drain should have 2 or 3 suction connections on it (if 3, one is likely...

    I was thinking the same. But if you go back to the install pics, i don't see how that type of pipe could have been crushed. Installed close to the shell in a trench - difficult for the heave equipment to crush it and not damage everything. I don't think a human can crush it? puzzling...

    Are you intercepting and joining to the flex PVC there, or are you going all the way to the skimmer? If the skimmer, it seems like it may be safer to go around the perimeter and straight shot to the skimmer so you disturb less soil under the deck. Just a thought.

    Yeah, i think she means its collapsing / collapsed. Cavitation is something that can happen at a pump and is the act of liquid turning to a vapor at the low pressure side of the impeller.

    If it’s a straight shot, a plumbers auger may work, may need to sharpen the tip. Hopefully it will screw into the ball. Are you below waterline? Keep in mind what you will do if the ball does come out. You will need to stop the flow.

    same here. I actually looked for a solid plate that I could replace the window locks with, that would render the windows as fixed and inoperable. Couldn’t find a solution.

    I got bagged on the cheap ones. In MA, they need to be UL listed and my inspector didn't waste amytime calling it out. The only ones that are UL listed are $70/ea, there are a grand total of 2 that are officially listed. Oh, and in MA code, a window is considered an egress that needs the...
