    Coping-Caulk Issue

    Allen, Thanks for the quick reply. Can I repair the expansion joint with Sikaflex or do I need to remove the old material first?

    Coping-Caulk Issue

    Our inground pool is about 8 years old and have had no problems with it. Recently I noticed that the coping/caulk used between our stamped cement patio and the flagstone edge of the pool is cracking. I'd like to repair and/or replace this, but I don't know what type of product it is. When our...

    Fusion Soft 2 SWG Problem

    Levels as of this morning: FCl = 0 Alk = 100 ph = 7.7 Cya = 40 ***UPDATE*** Turns out the flow at 1800 RPM was too low to activate the cell, so I increased it by 100 until the "No Flow" warning went away, stopping at 2300 RPM. Now the display shows "Flow and Cell On". Production at 80%...

    Fusion Soft 2 SWG Problem

    We have a Fusion Soft 2 SWG for our 17000 IGP and up until recently was working flawlessly. We had our pool refurbished with pebble sheen, so it was drained for about a month. Refilled and let the surface cure for a month before we added the salt. The system and pool are new, less that 18...

    Spa light in 45' pool- convert to LED?

    I am going through exactly what you are. I would like to replace my incandescent pool and spa lights with LED's. I have Jandy receptacles and the only way to get LED's is to replace the entire housing and cord, all 100+ ft of it, no easy task. J&J makes replacement LED bulbs, they won't fit in...

    Pebble Sheen Pool Startup

    Not having the time to look for a backup pool guy, I decided to do the startup myself. Following the startup directions left me by the plaster company, I went to my local pool store and had the fill water analyzed. Got some acid, chlorine and stabilizer, along with some test strips. The fill...

    Pebble Sheen Pool Startup

    I had a feeling I needed to fill it immediately, problem is that I don't have test kit or know the quality of my fill water, pool guys does all that. And he's on vacation with no way to contact him. So I guess I'll fill it and try to locate another pool guy that's familiar with Pebble Sheen and...

    Pebble Sheen Pool Startup

    We just had our IG pool redone with aqua blue pebble sheen, in fact they finished the acid wash and buff today. The contractor then started to fill the pool. Well, before I got home from work, I found out that my pool guy is off on vacation for at least a week (maybe more) so he won't be able...

    Incandescent to LED Conversion

    Interesting, I never thought of using a standard LED bulb. Since our pool is drained (just had Pebble Sheen installed), I have easy access to both our pool and spa lights. I'll give it a try.

    Incandescent to LED Conversion

    I've decided to replace our one year old 500w and 100w incandescent pool and spa lights with LED's. I have a Jandy recepticle for both. Problem is that standard replacement bulbs (i.e. J&J) won't fit, their basehits the bottom of the recepticle and the only way to possibly make it fit is to use...

    Equipment / Timer Problem

    Recently completed install of our IGP. All Jandy equipment. We have the Jandy Aqualink PS8 with the PDA. Everything worked fine for the first couple weeks, then recently the pump and filter wouldn't come on or go off at the preset times, I'd have to turn everything on/off manually. I checked...

    Recently discovered TFP and from the short time I've been here, I've found this site to be invlauable for the new pool owner, like me. We are in the final phase of building our inground pool, with the plastering going in later this week. The project has gone surprisingly smooth and our...
