AH . . . I knew there would be a catch :( I guess I can go into the screenlogic configuration and turn OFF the freeze protection and manually run the spillway a couple of times a day to refill the spa when I notice it and the put the freeze protection back on.

I know this topic is well worn, but my Pentair system in freeze protection, while swapping between pool and spa mode every 15 minutes slowly drains the spa over a 24 hour period. I assume there is some loss of water each time it switches and I know there could be a bigger problem to solve...

Good morning. So I was wondering about cutting into the fiberglass to fix this pipe issue in the light hole on my spa. When the original light sleeve was installed a 2" hole was cut into the fiberglass. This 2" hole will not allow me to fix my problem, as I will need the hole to be large...

:oops: So what your saying is that all of these lights will potentially melt and disintegrate . . . . that's not awesome.

Florida Sunseeker has offered me nothing really. I had actually purchased new ones to replace the ones that went out, but once I pulled them out and realized the severity of the damage, I called them and they did not act surprised and just refunded the money to me on the new lights I had not...

So now that I removed those crappy Pool Tone wannabe and dangerous GloBrite replacements that melted inside the pipe (PoolTone Problems!!!!!!!!) I have removed what's left of them and the debris and carnage they left behind. Unfortunately the GloBrite sleeve has melted leaving a hole!!!! I...

You may be onto something regarding the flex seal. I keep losing my PoolTone lights and this post shows the way they look when they come out! https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/pooltone-problems.304557/

If you have not yet made that purchase, you should be wary. Check out my post below. https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/pooltone-problems.304557/

Thanks. I sent these over to the PoolTone support email, so we will see. I am definitely considering going back to Pentair before I put new lights in so I don't have to go through this again.

So, like many others on this site, I was tired of the short life of my pentair LED lights and made the switchover to PoolTone. I got the NICHELESS 1 1/2 INCH (SMALL FACE) POOL OR SPA LIGHT and installed them about 18 months ago. The spa light stopped working about 2 months ago and then two of...

I will give Florida Sunseeker a call. I see that they also have a smaller version of the Globrite replacement. POOL TONE NICHELESS 1 1/2 INCH (SMALL FACE) POOL OR SPA LIGHT I think for the curved smaller spa space, this might be better to retain the same look I had before. Thanks for the...

Are the Microbrite lights enough of an improvement over Globrite to be going through this process? I just hate that these Globrite lights do not last very long.

Thank you for this. Super helpful. I will look into these and see what I can find out.

I think you are right. I googled the Pentair GLOBRITE lights and this photo came up, which looks close to my lights. If that is the case, is the sizing of the opening for GLOBRITE lights compatible with the Microbrite light specs or something else? I hope so! Thanks

Hello. I have posted before on other topics and appreciate all of the help you have provided. As I take more control of my pool repairs and maintenance, I am now onto lights. I believe I have the Microbrite lights in my pool and spa. The pool and spa lights are identical and the smaller...

Thanks Allen. On the LED Flash, it is only ONE TIME when the circuit breaker is flipped on and not repeated every 3 seconds like the ignition lockout was. Prior to any of this happening, the HEATER was powered on all the time, regardless of when heat was called for, so I am not sure if I...

Apologies for not being clearer. The LED is the one on the FENWAL box. I understand that the heater will not heat until the ET calls for heat, but that is not what I was referring to by no power. Prior to swapping out the igniter, when I turned on the circuit to the heater, the controller...

Hello again. So, recently my 7 year old Sta-Rite Max E Therm heater was suddenly not heating this week. Everything powered on and there were no error codes posting, but when the igniter sound engaged, it was not followed by the whoosh . . . I finally got the ignition lockout error (three...
