    Error 0021 on Pentair Superflo VS

    I have a Pentair Superflo VS that's 5 or 6 seasons old and this season it started throwing error 0021. The error stops the pump for a while and then it restarts after a few minutes. Sometimes it'll happen every 5 minutes or less and other times it will run for an hour or more without stopping...

    Raypak(Rheem) Heater Not Igniting. Bad Gas Valve?

    I'm hoping to get some direction from someone smarter than me. I've had the pool and heater up and running for a couple of weeks and the heater seemed fine until a couple of days ago. I can hear and see the electric ignitor sparking repeatedly but it's like there's no gas there to ignite...

    Looking for Feedback on Condition of Roberts Hot Tubs Insulated Cover.

    I just took delivery of this spa cover from Roberts Hot Tubs (www.rhtubs.com). Based on at least one other thread I read when doing pre-purchase research, I decided to open up and inspect the vapor barrier, particularly since I paid for a double wrap. On one of the cores, it looks like the...

    How is This Aerating?

    I have no idea if this is a lot or not enough aerating or how long it'll take my pH to come up from 7.2. The pool is about 15000 gal. Here's a video if it helps. Any feedback is appreciated.

    Spa Pump Motor Tripping Circuit Breaker

    My spa tripped my circuit breaker this week and I think I narrowed it down to the pump motor. I disconnected the two motors and the heater from the board and the circuit pops when that motor is connected. Would it be worth trying to troubleshoot and fix the pump motor or should I just order a...

    PVC Butt Connectors?

    I've had a pool guy open and close my pool every year until now. Unfortunately I never paid attention to how these pipes were connected during the summer. Is this common and how should I reconnect these?

    How Many People to Tilt Spa on its Side?

    My spa is on a pad of some sort that has either settled or never was level. I'm thinking of draining it, standing it on the side and leveling the pad again. Providing there no reason I'm unaware of that makes this a dumb idea, how many guys would it take to put the spa on the side and out of...

    Post Reply Gone Without Word.

    I posted a reply to the Tips and Tricks thread yesterday and it seems to be gone now. It was pretty innocuous so I don't see how it could have broken any rules and I'm looking to get some feedback on why it was moderated or if something else happened.

    Spa Care vs Pool Care?

    I think this is my first post! My pool guy of 4 years and I are having a mutual break-up. It's further than he wants to drive and I'm ready to take over the weekly care and have one less bill to pay. Today will be his last visit. I've been reading over the site quite a bit over the last few...
