My PB used Casa NewPort Skimmer lids. My wife really liked them. The salt did etch them though, so I primed and painted them. Looked real nice. Two years later, and I need to do it again, but trying to sand them down and such is a TON of work. Would rather buy new ones, but it seems these are...

I just want to confirm as I am getting ready to purchase my solar cover. get the cheapest correct? I am looking at either the Sun2solar 1200 or 1600 series. the 1600 series is $60 bucks more and thicker (I believe 16mm) Also, is there any difference (besides looks) between the clear and blue...

I have all Jandy equipment. I was told I dont have to get a Jandy HP, I can use whatever, but it wont work with the automation (but will turn it off and on). can someone explain that to me a bit please? For example, if I got a Raypak, what CAN'T I do with it, compared to the jandy versatemp...

Going to add a heat pump. Trying to figure out all the parts I will need for plumbing. My pad is below. I have already moved the shed. Was thinking of swapping the filter to the other side and putting the HP where the filter currently is. I was told somewhere (cant find it) that I need a check...

I know Jandy is out of the online sales, but is there a way to work around that? Can we somehow create an account as a supplier or something?

Running all Jandy. Temp of water says 83 right now, and normally for us it is kind of chili but swimmable. The water feels way colder than that. I might need to adjust it in the Jandy system if it is wrong. What is the most accurate way to get temp of pool? I want to compare it to my Jandy...

I was considering doing the H/C combo with the Pentair UltraTemp 140. How well do these chillers work? I know about a few weeks here in Dallas at the end of July that my pool will hit 90/91. Would love to drop it to 85. How long does that take with the Pentair? Energy Usage - I have seen a...

With my quest to get a heater I am learning I should get a cover. I know NOTHING on these. I have one of those weird shaped bean pools, so I will need to cut it match? Any recs for a good cover or are they all about the same?

I think the JXI is either 80 or 85% efficient, where the HiE2 is 95. Is the HiE2 worth the extra money? I did see someone make a comment in another thread when i was searching this, that said the HiE2 has a lot of issues? Is this true?

I am just now this week getting estimates for heater installation. We do not have a SPA, and we are looking to extend the season, not heat year round. Example...its Wednesday and the forecast says it will be 72 on the weekend (in March), but the water is cold and we would like to swim that day...

I have two of these, and had someone replace one last year. The other one has now died as well, and I am able to get a new light cheap, so I want to install it myself. Just wanting to confirm... I will need do verify which one I am pulling on. Note the wire connections. Pull out the old one...

I feel like I have never really had optimal water flow to the skimmers, with the way my pool is setup. In the pic below, the two black spots are the skimmers, the red spots are the returns. I feel like on the left side, I need the jet to point more towards the side. I was looking for some type...

My Casa Newport covers, after 4 years from salt, look like poop. I need to replace them. Was thinking of buying some plastic ones and painting them, but after reading here, seems the paint will start to peel up. So may just spend the money on new Casa Newports. What is the proper way to measure...

Anyone have a video or something that shows step by step to change out a Jandy light. My pool light was JLU4C30W100, but looks like they stopped making it and the replacement is JLU4C24W100. I found 1 or 2 online. Would like to save money and do this myself.

My SWG Cell is failing. I need to replace it. jandy zodiac r0693900 My local pool guy told me it was $467, but then today said it was actually $890. I also need to replace a light - JLU4C24W100 Some legit internet companies you can suggest?

I have a single light that kind of stays green when cycling through the colors. It is a Jandy JLU4C30W100 I was going to look into replacing this thing, but I can't find these anywhere. And the one I did find on some obscure website, says it is $400?? Are these lights really this expensive? I...

So, when building our pool, we figured we would save money and not get a heater. Thought we would never use it when it was cold outside.... Well, my kids have changed that. They have been wanting to swim this month, and the water has been freezing. So we are now thinking of adding a heater. I...

Jandy CL460 Filter - looks to be $200 for all four. I REALLY dont remember paying that much before. Anyone having better luck finding their filters somewhere else other than Amazon?

I will admit, I am hyper sensitive to what is happening with my pool. I am one of the few who never lost power and was able to keep my pump running and waterfalls running 24/7 since last week. Pump has been running at 2900 RPMs. How much evaporation is there really in this temp, with the falls...

I have noticed now twice my waterfalls have kicked off with freeze protect kicking off. It happened today and I noticed the air temp was reading 48 degrees! It is 28 out right now. The temp guage just hangs there from the control box, so i dont know if the direct sunlight caused this. I moved...

Well, we are almost there. What is crazy is I filed a service request for my pump TWO DAYS before this happened as this thing was squeeling like crazy. I am thinking that at a certain RPM, there is a bearing going out. Anyways, I covered the pad, three blankets and a tarp, with two heaters...

Anyone know how to do this? Either I suck at searching or its just not there? Can anyone walk me through it please?

Woke up too snow. Pump and waterfalls still running here in Dallas. Three blankets and a tarp covering all equipment. I am still holding. Did anyone throw in the towel yet and shut it off and drain?

So I have noticed since January that my pump screeches when the weather gets cold. My warranty is up in July so I called the pool builder. They scheduled a 3rd party to come out. I called the 3rd party to see when they were coming cause the pump has been running like this for two days now...

So I just cleaned mine, as I usually clean them around this time, then replace right before first swim in spring. I was just looking at prices, and was stunned to see the Pleatcos going for around $250 right now. I remember buying this for like $130 first time, then second time $160. Is this...

For the past few weeks I have chlorine levels running around 10-12. I keep turning down the % on the swg. I now have it at 20%. What is keeping my chlorine levels so high? It was not like this the past few years. Test results today FC 10 TA 65 PH 85- not sure why it spiked CYA 65 TCH 450

So, my pool is turning 3 years old this month. Salt pool. There is a plate on the bottom of the travertine, at the top of the skimmer entrance. It is starting to rust and cause some discoloration on my tile. What is the best way to fix this? Should I have someone come out and pull up those two...

Forget what this part is called. But the actual screw on cap broke, that is all needs replaced. Any idea what i am actually looking for here and where I can find it? Excuse my dumbness...but this is where water sprays out to make it go backwards.

I have been purchasing this from Leslie's https://www.lesliespool.com/Leslies-Hardness-Plus-Pool-Chemical/Hardness-Plus.htm?suggest=calcium%20hardnes seems expensive. You guys got better alternatives?

I tried simple green outdoor, but I only did it once a month last year. I also may not have sprayed enough. With it getting warmer in Texas now, we started to smell the urine again, so I bought the expensive Wysiawash system, which I think is just a chlorine sprayer. This does not seem to be...
