Please see video, it’s just as described, the pool guy said he tried a new capacitor (but I’m not 100% sure). Another repair guy (who cannot come to this area because he’s very far) upon seeing the video swears it’s the capacitor.

Hi everyone I have two questions. When I bought the house, the heater In the pool was not working due to pests, you can see some signs of biting, nut shells, etc. First question, can I get rid of it to avoid future infestations, and just close the loop after the filter? (See pic) Second...

Hi, I was cleaning my skimmer baskets when a frog jumped from one of them and into the drain, he went through the disc that covers them and into one of the pipes there. The pump is turned off and I don’t want to turn it back on and suck it into the pump, but how to get it out of there? Thanks

Hi guys, I found a set of old filters in the home I purchased, and I hosed them down really well and then soaked them in phosphate free dishwasher detergent. Then I hosed them again to remove all the soap and more debris came out. Would you use them in your pool? It’s time to clean the current...

Hi guys, as usual I turn to you for advice. I had a leak detection performed in my pool/spa after realizing I was losing water faster than evaporation, and also since I just couldn't find an air leak coming into the pump. Here are the results from the company who did it...

Hi guys, I'm trying to figure how to set up my recently repaired (thanks to another post) valve actuators. Here is my pool equipment: I'm currently running the pool as you see in the picture. The intake side valve is in the pool drain open position (thus, spa closed). The pressure side is in...

Hi guys, after my booster pump was fixed a couple of weeks ago, my Polaris 280 has been doing a good job on cleaning the Pool. Yesterday I was emptying the bag and I noticed this, I guess it’s like granules from the material the pool is made of. My calcium hardness levels are on the high side...

Hi everyone, happy Sunday! I’m posting here as a more general question about the pressure cleaners, maybe some other newbies can benefit as well. The pool at the house I got has a Polaris 280 which has been acting erratically, sometimes nose down, often going in small circles and tangling the...

Hi everyone, my CP3400 inside controller died and automation is running automatically (set up by previous owners), but without the ability to adjust anything, except going into service mode and turning on manually the spa bubbler, lights and booster pump. I'm about to do the upgrade to...

Hi everyone, I'm not sure for what reason somebody cut the lines that run from the Jandy valves to the controller in my new home's pool. A couple of questions, can they be easily replaced/fixed? And 2, why would someone do that other than just being nasty? They weren't chewed by rats or...

Hi everyone, I recently bought a house in McKinney and the previous owners were not very helpful in helping figuring out the pool. Some quick context, the pool has a spa and an automatic cleaner that I can see always get tangled, and he also doesn't like me because he'll shoot water at me every...

Just want to introduce myself really quick, I'm about to post a help request to understand my recently acquired home's pool a little better. Been reading the forums a few days, it's amazing how this community helps each other and I hope I can contribute to this as well!
