    Pump not turning on, no sound

    I know my pump shuts off when it gets too hot inside the pool shed. It automatically restarts though and the temperatures haven't been too high here in the last few days. I will double check if my pump has a reset button to make sure. Thanks for taking the time helping me out!

    Pump not turning on, no sound

    Great advice, will try this. Fingers crossed. I really hope I'm not going to have to cough up the money for a new motor/pump. Thank you for your help!

    Pump not turning on, no sound

    I didn't think trying to turn the motor/pump manually. Will try to do that and see what if it turns. Good to know that if I have to change the motor, I also have to change the seals. I have a feeling I know what I will be doing this weekend... Thank you for your help!!

    Pump not turning on, no sound

    I’ve had great help from this forum in the past, and want to ask for advice again. My pump stopped running. No humming, no sound at all. I confirmed with a multimeter that I have 240V running to the pump, the capacitor is good, and the wiring looks ok too. If it is jammed or bearings are bad, I...

    Are these calcium nodules or is this calcium scaling?

    Did scrape some at the side, colored turned into a lighter grey, but not a big difference. I will do some more test spots on the bottom of the pool because the more I think about it the more the color of the plaster seems off. Unfortunately, my pool pump just stopped working like 30 minutes...

    Are these calcium nodules or is this calcium scaling?

    I don't really know how old the plaster is, I bought the house with the pool. The plaster is at least 5 years old, but likely around 10-15 years old. I also don't know if this is the original plaster color, but have always seen the pool in this color and it's colored like this all over the pool...

    Are these calcium nodules or is this calcium scaling?

    I have several of these big white hard (not brushable) marks on my pool floor. I assume they are calcium nodules since my CH has been very low (160) for too long. I will increase my CH to 350 using a red bag of Joe Melt. If these are indeed calcium nodules, should I just sand the nodules down...
