Update.... I figured it out. System Setup -> Color Lights -> Jand Colors and then changed AUX2 (which is the Sheer Descent) to not have JL, JC, SL, or CL with it.

I have an Aqualink Touch., PDA-PS6. There is a sheer descent pump that does not have any lights associated with it. Recently, when I enable the Sheer Descent pump, it ask for a light color and then do the normal jandy power light power cycle. So essentially hard starts / stops several...

In theory, you should be able to run the Pool and Home Heater off of 22KW Gen. I have a 24KW Natural Gas Generac Gen at my house. My house is Natural gas-heated. So the question is, "Is your house electric or gas heated?". If Gas, make sure you have a large enough gas line to supply both the...

Hah... luckily I survived this year in TX. I had a scare when the pool temp dropped to 31 and ice started forming on the surface. I decided to try my JXI 400N heater to warm it to 42 and it was throwing all kinds of codes. After cleaning the sensors and clearing the codes ("All 3 buttons...

I am in the same position. Two of my 3 lights have failed. This website advertises them. https://tspoolsupply.com/products/blue-square-spectrum-360-led-light-white-200040-wt But $499 per light is a lot. I have not reached out to my pool builder to see if they would sell directly to me...

Glad you got it fixed. Honestly, those seals are $25 to $8 items, which to me is an expendable part to replace. It only takes an additional 5 - 10 minutes to do it.

I am looking for O-Ring sizes for the R044600. Jandy only lists the Part Number for the plug and O-Ring. I just want to order the O-rings. I am slowly building up a stockpile of spare O-Rings and parts for all my pool equipment.

@JamesW Do you have a reference to install a flow switch into a non-salt water Aqualink? Basically, trying to figure out the wiring into the control panel so that it shuts off the heater when no flow is detected.

I had to dump the filter to replace the drain plug O-ring. I didn't backwash or clean the grid, it emptied the filter of water and loose DE. I put 5 measured lbs of DE back in via a slurry. I have had to replace a lot of O-rings after having the pool for 3 years. Just been working my way...

Interesting. That is a much simpler design with fewer parts.

Yea, I measured out the weight on a small scale. It was just that the table makes no sense and I was wondering if I was missing something. Basically, 1 orange DE cup is between 18 to 14 oz depending if packed or not.

Added a heater bypass last night. Used these 2" ball valves. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09ZTVF5MV?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details After the initial movement of the ball, it is very smooth. My only complaint is that the Orings can call out when placing the valve body. But with...

I have a Jandy DEV60. Looking at the manual, page 9 Table 2 it states: Model No. DE Quantity (lbs.) DE Quantity (kg.) No of 1 lb. Coffee Cans DEV48 5.0 2.0 10 DEV60 6 2.7 12 Am a bit confused about understanding the table. It appears I should use 12 1lb Coffee Cans to coat the grid...

@PoolGate you were right, it was my schedule. The heater is programmed to turn on for 5 minutes every Sunday. Now that I know it is not a phantom controlling it and part of the PDA programming, I am ok with this.

It seems that every Sunday at 10 am, my pool heater kicks on. I'm running the Jandy PDA iAqualink. https://www.jandy.com/en/products/controls/aqualink-pda I have it linked with Alexa and my phone. But Alexa does not show any usage. Anyone else seen this issue?

Well.... Got some success on the impeller front. Found a guy on Ebay who sold me one for $55 and I received it the next day in the mail. Took about 20 minutes to install it last night, I only replaced the spring seal on the volute side, and not the ceramic one. I know the documentation says...

Ok... So false alarm. After a month, the tracking label out of Polaris never shipped. I'm still looking for an R0536400 PB4-60 Impeller. I contacted Pools Supplies Unlimited who I purchased it through and they have started the refund on that item, which is great in that aspect. The good...

Woot! Just got a shipping notice for the impeller that I ordered on 3/14.

Just a bump in case anyone has a spare PB4-60 impeller R0536400 that they are willing to sell me at a reasonable price.

I did a rock salt finish on bare concrete with a light color overlay. It is pretty non-slip even when wet. Also, being a light color, it does not burn the feet. My Oklahoma flat stone coping around the pool is hotter than the concrete down here in the Texas sun.

Awesome Baloo!

I have a similar setup with a JXi400N, Versaflow, and a Jandy Variable Speed Pump. When the heater kicks on, the VersaFlow engages and the pump kicks up to about priming levels. I notice that the pressure gauge on Jandy DE60 hits around 25-26 PSI when the heater is running. And drops back...

That was my thought as well when I did mine. For the sanding, you don't want to go too smooth where the epoxy will bond to the plastic. The intent is to give grip to the epoxy. Awesome news on possible UPS delivery!

Any update baloo? I am curious if you tried to epoxy it back together and if it was successful.

Let me know how it works out. If you want more mechanical grip from the epoxy, drill shallow holes all over where the fiberglass will go (like 1/2 way through the manifold thickness) and then fill it with epoxy. It may help lock the joint from separating from the epoxy by anchoring it.

That's a serious crack. But honestly, do you have anything to lose by trying to epoxy it back together? It may be a temporary fix but might get you by till they are available. Disassemble everything and pull out the valves. Clean everything thoroughly internally and externally with...
