Just came out to find my filter enclosure cracked and spewing water everywhere. Right now I have a Pentair FNS 48 and I was thinking about replacing it with a FNS 60 (which is just larger capacity). All the inlet and outlet locations are in the same place, so it should be an easy swap out. Is...

Hello, The pool lady left our easy touch enclosure opened prior to it raining and the inside got all wet and blew out the board. The board is turning on relays and valves, but the communication with the pump and the inside panel is not working. So I think the rs485/serial port was damaged. I...

Hello, I'd like to replace my lights with some of the pentair 5gs. I have two pool lights and a spa light. What exactly is involved with it? I assume just unscrewing the old one from the niche and pulling through the new cable? Do you need to seal up the conduit in the back of the niche...

Hello, Went to go use SPA last night and found it wasn't getting hot. Turned off heater and then back on and it fired up for a few minutes and then turned back off. Service Light was on. Initial error was HLS (High Limit Switch). I temporarily bypassed that switch to see if it was the issue...

Have a pool/spa combo. The spa has 6 jets in it, 2 of the jets are connected to the main pool pump and are basically just to cause spill over into the main pool. The other jets are connect to another pump which also runs through a Mastertemp400 heater. Only the jets in the spa are plumbed into...

Have combo Pool/Spa. Easytouch 8. don't know how previous owner had it programed, but I'm trying to figure out the best way. Have a Inteliflo variable speed pump. This takes up "Pump" and Aux 1, 2, 3 for 4 different speeds. I normally just run it on the Filter Pump setting. The filter pump...

My pool has 120V lights. What are my options for getting some color changing options? It has two lights. They are correctly on a GFI. Is it just a bulb you can replace in the units? Is it an option to convert these to 12V w/ transformer? Is the "niche" universal for the most part? Also -- I...

Hello, I have an auto filler on a house I purchased and have noticed a rusty colored stain where the outlet of the auto filler goes into the pool. Looked inside the autofill there is a large gap where the water can slosh around and come into contact with the sand and dirt. This in turn is...

Hello, Getting some "oozing" on the pressure side of a new pump I installed. I just used teflon tape when installing it.. Very small.. Maybe a few drips an hour..but still there. It was worse but then I took it out and re-teflon taped it and installed it and its much better, but still just...

can unions and other assorted fittings be typically sourced locally at HD or Lowes? I know the fittings likely can but am not sure about unions Also, is the preferred method of sealing the threaded inserts just teflon tape? I see some people using this sealant on a stick? What is that about...

I currently have an EasyTouch which was hit by lightening. The interior display is blown out as well as the PCBA for the intellichlor. However, there may be some issues with the control of pumps and the RS485 ports on the unit. The pump VS-3050 isn't actually working all that well and it will...

Hello, Can someone point me to some troubleshooting steps on an intellichlor. Basically the breaker immediately pops when reset. There is a transformer and a PCB inside the housing and the PCB has obvious signs of damage (lightening strike I assume). Some of the caps are blown off and other...
