    Floating Liner Repair Tips Needed

    I have a 16’x32’ in ground with a “Bermuda” shape. It’s about a 7 year old Merlin liner. Not sure of the thickness. It has floated pretty much every spring when I’ve opened it (over winter), and I’ve had success getting it back in order with hot water and pumping out the water from behind the...

    I have a Hayward H200 millivolt natural gas heater that isn’t starting. Just replaced the pilot assembly and the pilot lights and stays lit, but the unit won’t fire. Can’t detect any loose connections, and have good water flow. Planning to test switches and sensors with a multimeter tonight...

    Hayward H-200 Millivolt Running Erratically

    I was having trouble getting my heater going when I opened the pool for the season a few weeks ago. It was my first time opening the pool.

    Hayward H-200 Stalling - Just Opened

    I have a new-to-me Hayward “H series” H-200 natural gas heater (millivolt). I opened this weekend and can’t get the unit working properly. I was having trouble with the pilot light and eventually got it lit with the help of a friend. When it’s lit it is very faint. Can hardly even see the flame...
