Excellent information as I was not aware that it only required removing a jumper to allow the main board to be compatible with the Aquatrol t-5 cell. 8-) The rebuild service may also be a cost effective solution. If you try this service, please post your observations and total replacement...

Won't work. :( You need software revision 1.5 or higher to use the low output cells. Even if you had this version, you would probably not be happy with a unit that produces 1/3 of the amount of chlorine that your current cell produces. If funds are the issue, then consider the GLX-CELL-15...

Our fill water from a well has trace amounts of Iron and over time it causes stains. I used Jack's Magic Purple Stuff for 2 seasons in our saline pool and it worked well. I am currently testing the Blue Wave brand of Super Rust & Scale Remover. It is an HEDP based sequestering agent at 1/3...

Communication error 2 "The display/keypad is not receiving any communication from the Aqua Logic main control unit. The most likely cause of this problem is a broken wire or "open circuit" in wires "2" and/or "3" in the cable between the display/ keypad and the Aqua Logic main control unit."...

Here are a couple of things to check before you condemn the controller or cell. Clean the cell per the manufacturers instructions. As calcium scales builds up inside the cell, then chlorine production decreases. Test the Stabilizer/conditioner (CYA) level in the pool water. If CYA is less...

These codes indicate low cell current and high cell voltage. These codes could indicate a dirty cell or a cell that needs to be replaced. Clean the cell per the manufacturers instructions to see if the trouble codes clear. If the codes are still present after a thorough cleaning, then it may be...

Re: Blue Haven Smartpure Sanitizer inspect cell/low salt lig Kimmisue Symptoms suggest a failing salt cell. Did the pool store "test" the cell? You should be able to replace just the cell. Blue Haven smartpure systems are private label branding by Hayward/Goldline and is the same system as...

3.2 gpl = 3200 ppm A salt level of 3.2 is grams per liter 3200 is parts per million Which salt system?

Here is a link in PDF format showing the parts detail. http://www.poolproducts4less.com/produc ... _parts.pdf PSG

The front wheel should't freewheel. The 380's have two belts that transfer power from a centrally located pulley to the two wheels. The two belts are available as a BELT KIT and are normally replaced at the same time. These belts are commonly replaced items and many pool stores keep them in...

ORP extended means the system is running the pump continuously trying to adjust the ORP level. The pump will run 24/7 no matter what you have set for the ouput % or pump run duration :shock: This is why the chlorine level is so high. The probes may need to be cleaned. To clean the ORP and pH...

If the inspect cell LED is flashing then there is no need to return the cell. The inspect cell light is only a service reminder. :-D It is kind of like the oil change light on your car. :mrgreen: Take a look inside the cell and look for calcium scaling. If you see scale, clean the cell...

Ted, You are correct about Hayward's pricing strategy. Don't forget you would also need the taller outlet elbow and the upgraded clamp/o-ring assembly. $330 filter head 48 Sqft $190 updated clamp spring assembly with new style o-ring $ 45 Outlet elbow $ 40 retaining rod $135 grids 48 sq ft...

Just replace the one damaged grid $20 If the grids are all in questionable condition, then consider a set of 7 grids $120 It is a lot more than a couple of extra bucks to upgrade. To upgrade to larger grids, would require replacing the entire filter. The 24 sq ft grids are only 12" tall. The...

The advantages of maintaining the recommended CYA concentration are increased cell life and shorter pump run times. $10 for the cost of CYA seems like a bargain to be able to decrease the pump run time by up to 40% and to almost double the life of the cell. The only advantage to a lower CYA...

Pink feet = PVC Brush-Magenta :lol: Here are some on-line vendors, but I won't specifically recommend any company. Shipping costs will vary according to your location. Call them up and talk with them about your cleaner. http://www.backyardcitypools.com/Automa ... -NE284.htm...

The better quality o-rings are made of Viton and will last longer in the harsh environment of high chlorine, highly acidic (low PH), and frequent removed area of the chlorinator. The less expensive o-rings will work but won't last as long. If you buy the cheaper o-rings, then buy 3 or 4. :)...

You do NOT want to use the wife's sock to add CYA to the pool without her authorization. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Have a great weekend PSG

No, it looks like you simply need to add some stabilizer conditioner (CYA) to the water. Hayward recommends 60 to 80 ppm of CYA for these systems. Your water has 0 Without stabilizer in the water, the sunlight breaks down the chlorine faster than the salt cell can produce it. Use the pool...

Ethany After you rule out organics with the Overnight Free chlorine loss test, then here are some other things to test. Be sure the salt cell is clean. If you see calcium build up inside the cell, then clean per the manufacturers instructions. If you are running the pump 24/7 with a 25K cell...

Ethany How many hours per day are you running the pump? Which zodiac cell do you own? 25k, 35k or the 45K? PSG

The clamp on the Hayward light fixtures is difficult. :whip: It took 5 minutes to remove the fixture, and replace the bulb, but it took 25 minutes to get that clamp back on correctly. :grrrr: IS there a trick for reassembling the clamp easily? PSG

Proper water balance for a Salt system is essential for optimum performance. A lower than recommended CYA level can allow sunlight to consume chlorine quicker than the unit can produce it. Click on the blue link below for more information. pool-school/water_balance_saltwater_generator PSG

Normal operation for the Aquarite system The generating light will stay on even when the system is in "time out" mode based on the output percentage. The output percentage is based on time not voltage or amps. For example If we run the pump for 10 hours per day with the output set to 80%, then...

High volts, low amps, and the controller reporting low salinity means you probably need a new cell. Is there a shop nearby that can test the cell? Have them test the salinity of the water also. PSG

Most likely grid failure :(

Continue to lower the TA as per pool school directions. This is the safest way :goodjob: Bump the FC up to 16 for 2 more days. pool-school/chlorine_cya_chart_shock At the same time, you can add a little DE to the sand filter. Keep that pump/filter running 24/7. You will soon be able to see...

Cycle the power to restart Press the menu button Press the up arrow Temperature should be flashing Increase the set temperature to match the real temperature of the water Wait about 3 or 4 minutes to verify that the error 94 does no return. Hope this works PSG

Jose This may be a long shot, but check the temperature setting to be sure it is accurate for the water temperature. This may sometimes cause an error 94. PSG

Welcome Check the fittings in the hose to be sure they all swivel. Pressure on the cleaner may too high and cause the couplings to disconnect. Check the pressure relief valve. Wheel RPM's need to be less than 32. See section 4 in the link below for specific instructions...
