    Hayward ProLogic PS-16 Software

    I have the Hayward pro lights and they do not work for the red/white/blue color scheme and a few others. And I thought maybe the software had something to do with it not working.

    How do you touch up the bad points? do you need to remove the old solder prior to putting in new? And how do you remove the old solder?

    Polaris Backup Valve

    YEAH!! I finally got the backup valve apart! I soaked it in hot water, hit it probably 20+ times with a rubber mallet, tried the rubber straps, no go. Soaked it again in hot water, hit it with the rubber mallet again, 20+ times. Grabbed the two rubber straps in opposite directions and had my...

    Suggestions for a New Pool Cleaner

    I just purchased a Polaris 380, dark blue & grey, black tires from a store on eBay. It was a demo and was taken care of. I opted not to have the main hose and it cost me $480! Half the price of a new one. I had 2 of these 380’s in 25 years and I do all the repairs on them, all the way down to...

    What's the best pool cleaner?

    I’ve owned 2 of the Polaris 380‘s in 25 years. They are a pressure side cleaner with a booster pump. I do all the repairs on it without any problems. I alway keep all the spare parts from the old one incase I need something to fix a current cleaner. I just broke down and purchased a...

    Polaris Backup Valve

    I think I’ve read every posting regarding help with the Polaris backup valve. Mine also has water coming out of it when it’s supposed to be going forward, which means the sweep doesn’t work so good either. I saw someone say that they put a hammer to it (20 times) and it did open? Was that a...

    Water softener installation!!

    We have had our pool on our house soft-water for 25 years. We added a salt Chlorinator in 2018 and it’s a lot easier to maintain because you don’t have to actually go out and test the water. It is well worth it and not having to add CH tabs, especially with the cost of CH lately. Never had a...

    HELP!! No water is coming out of spa jets when in normal Pool/Spa function

    Well. after I took the pictures of the equipment, I got to thinking about that maybe the spa valve is not turning in the right direction if at all. If you look at the equipment pic #3 you can see, on the left-hand side, the Spa Valve with a label that says Spa On and the handle is on that label...

    Travertine Stone and calcium removal

    Does the sander have to be a variable speed sander to make this work? We have just regular tile without the shine and it has bumps and valleys.( nit sure what us called. I’m have a pool for 25 years and just had it redone in 2014, we’ve never had calcium lines Until this year. This year was the...

    Hello from Nor Cali...

    Roguegeek, we are neighbors! We live in WC, Ca. and I just had my pool redone about 3-4 years ago also. I’m also looking at a TCell. Getting tired of treating or draining the pool by 1/3 for the CYA! When you need to replace your SWG you might want to think of a bigger sized one, like the 40k...

    5 months old T-15 is prematurely losing its life, possible?

    I’m looking into purchasing a Hayward T Cell 15 Pro for our pool and when I talked to the actual installer (Hayward certified) that would be doing the install he said that during the winter, remove the T Cell and replace with a plain tube. Go back to floating chlorine tabs in the pool or in the...

    Pentair Minimax 400 Flange bolts rusted

    Have a Pentair MiniMax 400 heater for 20 years. It still works but we hardly use it for the pool because we have solar. Now, I have a small water leak on the outside large water flange and the bolts are rusted. It’s where the two water pipes go in and out of the heater. I’m afraid to try and...

    Question on SWCG

    I’m thinking about getting the SWG system on my 18k Pool and was reading that everybody thinks that you should size it 1.5 to 3 times the size of your Pool. Isn’t that a little bit of an overkill? Or does the cell last longer because it doesn’t have to work as much? Or you don’t have to run your...

    Hayward EcoStar SP3400VSP Pump Stalled Error

    Good News!! On my Hayward SP3400VSP that stalled again, :( Hayward had sent the repair man the parts and the repair man replaced both the Controller & Driver! It cost me $150 in labor to have it installed because it was out of warranty. Hayward must know that something isn’t right with their pump.

    Sealed Air Solar Panels

    I also have Sealed Air solar panels for 21 years now. I also have a slight leak, but I think that it is the connection pipe between the panels. When I asked other pool services about them, they said that they are no longer made.:( What I haven’t done yet, is to actually call Sealed Air to see if...
