    New Hayward 4-Wheel "The Pool Cleaner" Will Not Get Enough RPM

    Ok. And when I turn the valve in the right to close off skimmer and go 100% suction, I do see the skimmer shuts off and I have quite a bit of suction coming from the suction line. So if my main drain is plumbed through the skimmer, is it accurate to say that shutting off the skimmer completely...

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    One more question… in addition to turning that valve so get a 70/30’ish split of suction from suction port/skimmer respectively, do I also need to shut off the main pool drain? If so, can you explain to me how to do that with my current set up because I have no idea.

    New Hayward 4-Wheel "The Pool Cleaner" Will Not Get Enough RPM

    Actually can I throw one more thing in here? I’m attaching a photo of my equipment. On the lower right it splits into two which I believe is my skimmer and suction port. So if I turn that valve to block 70% of skimmer, I would have 70% of the suction coming from the dedicated suction line… what...

    New Hayward 4-Wheel "The Pool Cleaner" Will Not Get Enough RPM

    Sorry, I would also add that I'm not quite sure what to do with these two rings if anyone knows. Filter just cleaned and it seemed to have great suction but I guess I wouldn’t know how to judge. It was new, listed as an open box. The weird part for me was when I pressed the hose down on the...

    That’s what I thought. Tried that and the cleaner moved but not well so I think I have a bad unit.

    New Hayward 4-Wheel "The Pool Cleaner" Will Not Get Enough RPM

    Hello everyone - I recently bought a Hayward 4-Wheel "The Pool Cleaner from ebay. I have it connected to my dedicated suction line with the appropriate length of hose and a Hayward Leaf Cannister in between the 1st and 2nd hoses coming off the wall per the instructions. I have my VSP running...

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    Can I ask another question on this setup? I recently got a suction side cleaner to replace a robot. I’ve never used a suction side cleaner before… what valves would I need to set in order to have the machine operate? I have a dedicated suction line so not using the skimmer and I can’t seem to...

    I tried turning pump off and on. Maybe a dumb question, but how do I cycle the power for aqualink?

    Meaning what, exactly? Should I just flip a breaker or what else needs to power off other than pump?

    Hi everyone (see photos) I'm out of the country and have my dad at my house. Starting yesterday, he let me know he first hear the pool pump running and wasn't sure why. When I log into my iAqualink system, it shows the system offline. Never seen this status before. Everything seems to look...

    Pentair Warrior SE Wheel Kit

    My Warrior SE just died after 2 years and 4 months. I'm curious... What made you order the wheel kit? Mine just wouldn't turn on one day, so I watched a video where the guy removed the wheel and tracks and there is a little white bearing Marina told me can wear down over time and to try...

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    I just wanted to close the loop here in case anyone else is having a similar issue. Shocker, it ended up being the actual diverter valve. I did replace the bypass check valve. After doing that, I opened the bypass again, cleaned everything, added lubricant to the O-Ring and did the same thing...

    I too am on a 24/7 VSP schedule but I'm using 1200 RPM overnight and the spa still drains. Does that change things?

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    Just want to ask one more time... "Have you opened both diverters and confirmed they are fully sealing?" - Can I just get a little clarity here? Without taking these valves apart, how exactly am I to confirm they're sealing or not? Open them all the way and then what am I looking for? Sorry...

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    The check valve replacement was aftermarket. Can you expand a bit on how I can check if the diverters are fully sealed? Never done this before and would appreciate the direction. Happy to do the test. There have been no other changes to the system. Last night, I turned the entire system off...

    Confirming the spa drained down to pool level overnight, again.

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    It drains down to the pool level but pool level does not increase. I changed the second one and the o-ring had come loose... Sad to see it likely has no impact. I did not have spillover in automation (I actually just added it) but I'm confident my valves are correct and still seeing drainage.

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    That much I understand. I now have them set to pool mode (both handles pointing right) and I've replaced the check valve and the spa still drains overnight. Should I replace the other check valve coming from heater? Just trying to figure out why it's still draining.

    Hey @PoolGate - I had sent through my screen shot and was hoping to get your help on this. Thanks,

    Pool + Spa Automation Breakage

    Okay so I replaced the bypass on that middle pipe and it's been a few weeks. The spa is still draining down in a similar manner when the pump is really low (1800 RPM or lower). My pump never turns completely off and I keep it running at 1,200 RMP overnight and 1,800 most of the day with bursts...
