    Skimmer Door Weir Broke Off

    I have all a Pentair skimmer box. The weir door has two plastic tabs that are inserted into the two small holes in the skimmer box, allowing it to move fluidly. Well one of the tabs broke off my weir door and is stuck inside the skimmer box so the door won't stay in place. I bought a new weir...

    Is it Time for a New Cleaner??

    I have had a Pentiar Rebel vacuum (Automatic type that connects to the sidewall of the pool) for about 5 years and have been very happy with the job it does. I could go a month without sweeping the pool and you would never know because it picked up everything. I recently bought new tires for...

    Auto Filler

    I feel that my water level is a little too high. I read in here that the idea over should be halfway up the skimmer box and or tile. Mine is towards the top of both. When I try to adjust the filler by pushing the plastic box down it stops filling with water and therefore gets the water level to...

    AA Treatment with Draining

    I have some areas in my pool that have some metal staining. I am also going to do a full drain soon due to very high calcium in the water (I have never drained in the 5 years I have had the pool). My question is, can I drain it and dissolve some AA in a spray bottle and spray the areas, then...

    First Time Drain

    Ok thanks. So would a standard 150' garden hose work with a 1/3hp pump? I have a drain cap in my font yard that I would drain into, but it is about 130 feet away.

    First Time Drain

    I will be draining my pool for the first time. I read the draining section on the Wiki on here and based on what was available to purchase I was leaning towards the Superior Pump. https://www.amazon.com/Superior-Pump-91250-Thermoplastic-Submersible/dp/B000X05G1A/ref=sr_1_1?th=1 My question is...

    Spa Not Working Right

    Ok thanks. I took some pics of my Main board as well. I have two of the 3 pin connectors in use. They are going to the intake valve and return valve. Would this be my two actuators? Or something different? It’s very hard for me to trace them back. They are eitger Plugged into something else...

    It is all right next to each other. Do these normally plug into the easy touch panel?

    Spa Not Working Right

    Thanks for all the info. So I bought a new actuator and the install seemed easy until I had to power it. The existing actuator has 24awg that goes into a pvc pipe and merges with 18awg wire and that goes into the heater. I took apart the heater cover and it’s hard wired in there. And the wires...

    Spa Not Working Right

    Ok thanks. My first question, what does the actuator valve do? Does the easy touch system tell the actuator to open the valve for the spa so it doesn’t have to be done manually? Also, would a new handle come with a new valve actuator? And any recommendations on where to purchase a new one? I...

    Spa Not Working Right

    I am having an issue with my spa. The pool is running just fine, but when I turn on my spa (via the Pentair app) it is not working properly. The water level in the spa will go down, I get some water coming out of the jets but it is very weak, and I am getting a clicking sound every other...

    Tiny bit of algae

    Ok silly question. How do you know how much FC your salt cell produces each day? Or is this just your average FC each day when you tear your water?

    Tiny bit of algae

    Should I be upping my salt cell output too? This is what the pool installer set it at 3 years ago and I hadn’t had any problems until now.
