    Re-caulking around the pool, DIY or hire a pro ?

    Hello ! I need to get the whole expansion joint around my pool re-done. I'm wondering if this is something we could do by ourselves or if we should hire a pro ? I got an estimate from a local pool company at $8.5/ft. We got about 120ft to be done (so a total of $1020). There are area where the...

    Intermatic (or Dayton ?) timer not turning on

    yeah, I think this is what's going to happen, I'm getting too frustrated to try to figure out what is wrong. I usually prefer to fix things rather that buying new/replacing, but I don't want to spend hours troubleshooting if replacing it is cheap and easy 😂

    Intermatic (or Dayton ?) timer not turning on

    So I turned the breaker off (😃). I did everything you mentioned, so I could "feel" what's happening with the "off" tripper, then did the same with the "on" one. They both felt the same and get caught on the thing (sorry I don't know the parts names) behind, so I still don't understand why the...

    Intermatic (or Dayton ?) timer not turning on

    Thanks, I'm going to try what you suggested, hopefully I'll find something ! No worries, I'm going to turn off the breaker ! We're closing the pool in about a month, so if I can't find what is wrong, I'll ask my pool guy to have a look as well :) I'm not sure how old this is, we bought the...

    Intermatic (or Dayton ?) timer not turning on

    Does that work ? Thank you for the help ! Just for the record, I know I have 3 off and only two on. I did it that way because we sometimes turn the pump in the evening and the extra off is there in case we forgot to turn it off :D

    Intermatic (or Dayton ?) timer not turning on

    Hello, I'm trying to troubleshoot my timer. It does turn the pump off, but not on. It was working a few weeks ago :( . I changed the trippers, no luck. I bought another set of trippers, still the same. The pump turns on with the by pass and all the gears are turning (and as I said the "off"...
