Good afternoon, Just replaced the circuit board on my Aquacal T135 heater. This was due to no power getting to the control display. After putting it in, everything looked good until the compressor got ready to turn on…then everything shut down and the OTA system lockout message came up. I...

Good morning, I replaced the seal around the lid a few weeks ago. When it warms up a bit I will take it off and give that area a good inspection, hopefully no cracks or anything. Thanks for the info on the pump regarding burning up..that was my main concern.

So when I took off the lid on the filter housing to replace the gasket there was no water in the filter housing and of course hardly any water in the pump. After replacing with new seal still does the same thing, squirting water only out of one side of the pump cover after I get the pump primed...

I am going to order a new seal for the filter housing cover and try that. If you look at the picture of the top of the pump cover, the water always seems to spurt out at about the 7 o’clock position.

Installed a new pump lid about two years ago because the old one was yellowing. Have since replaced and lubed the ring twice the most recent a couple days ago. I notice that when the pump is running there is no water leaking out, but once it shuts off some water squirts out the top for a second...

Thank you!

Thank you!

Good morning, Well just now I checked and spa down about a foot. So if all those valves are in correct position then I guess that’s what we will do. Have to order and try to do this weekend. Keep an eye out on my post as I will let you know the outcome, and thx again for all your help. Hey one...

Hi Jim, Well I looked over your drawing grabbed a flashlight and a jacket and went to work. Here is what I did according to your drawing if I got it right. 1. Spa by pass closed. 2. Spa heat in open. 3. Spa heat out open. 4. Pool heat in closed. 5. Pool heat out closed. 6. Pool bypass open. 7. 2...

Good evening Jim, I came home around 11 and the spa had drained down a good foot from the previous night. I shut the spa pump off and removed timer pins so it could not kick on tomorrow. I honestly don’t remember if I moved the fountain valve or not but I believe it was in the off position. When...

Good morning..a little chilly! With both pumps off overnight the spa drained down again. Started pool pump manually and when I started spa pump it would not prime. I switched the spa bypass valve to open and it primed. So I’m guessing that has to be open. I then switched spa heater in and spa...

Back from the dentist and after 2 hours the water in the spa has risen a few inches above the eyeballs. Looking in the spa pump the water has gone down to where it’s around the level of the inlet pipe, but it’s not full up to the glass like it should be. I will check back in the morning and see...

Hi Jim, Yes water is coming out of the eyeballs in the pool. There are two bypass valves, one for pool one for spa. If the valves are set to spa heat in spa heat out and pool heat in pool heat out, the spa bypass valve is set to close and water is sent thru the heater for the spa, and pool heat...

Jim, In spa heat mode when the pool pump is running the water goes to the returns in the pool and out the two pvc pipes sticking up out of the fountain. The fountain water then cascades over the ledge back into the pool. I can regulate how much water returns to the fountain and with it wide open...

So 20 minutes later the spa continued to fill starting to get near the edge of the deck. Walked back to fountain valve and heard noises like water moving in the pipes down by the bottom pipes by the heater. Looked in heater did not see any water or leaks. Turned fountain valve slightly more open...

No, it is a separate system does not spill over. As you can see in this picture I just took, the water level now is way up more than it should be so I am going to have to turn on the fountain maybe just a bit to see if some water will drain back down, you can see how much I opened the fountain...

So right now only the pool pump is running. The water level in the spa has come up about 6 inches. It looks like the water level in the pool has come down a bit but the water level in the fountain has stayed even with the top ledge of the fountain which is normal. The top line is the inlet to...
