    Front Load Washer recommendations?

    I believe my 20 yr old whirlpool duet washing machine has finally beat me ( it seems to be draining only when it wants to) Other than needing to relace a relay on the main board around 8yrs in and a warranty replacement of the tub at about 14yrs, it has been rock solid. I am inclined to go with...

    Intellicenter spa mode /spillover mode

    I've searched and can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I have spa spillover mode enabled to run 3x daily. What I would like is for spa mode when Selected to override spillover so that if someone is in the spa, spillover doesn't shut it off and start filling cold pool water in the spa. Is...

    Siemens gfci breakers flashing replacement light.

    My oldest called me to advise we had a power outage yesterday around 4pm, seeming as a result of a rare for our area lightning strike. When I got home around 630pm, power still "out", I noticed several anomalies indicating the failure as a brown out as opposed to a full power outage and...

    Just a quick thank you!

    I recently was away from home for 11 days (visiting my daughter then a 7 day bike trip down the california coastline). This was the longest I have been away from home since having our pool built so there was some trepidation about coming home to a swamp. With everything I've learned from here I...

    What is the shelf life of muriatic acid?

    I was in a habitat for humanity re-store today and they had a dozen or so gallons of 14.5% muriatic acid for $1 each. Does it degrade like chlorine?

    Those with fire features/bowls - Do you use them

    As the title states, if you have fore features do you use them (beyond the initial honeymoon period) We still have a punch list for our pb to complete (while he has not sent someone he does at least still respond that he plans to 🤦‍♂️) This has left my brain to process all the additional stuff...

    Intellicenter feature controlled autofill with sprinkler valve

    I had previously posted about my intellicenter controlled autofill modification but had an issue so decided to revisit it. Initially I had pulled 24v from from a valve header on the intellicenter which I ran to a free relay then on to the solenoid. This worked fine for about six months at which...

    Pool was finished june of 2022 and I have 5 check valves installed (1 Pentair which was added new recently) 3 are pentair and 2 are jandy ( not sure if it is relevant but 1 of the jandy is basically a coupler, check flap removed as the plumber installed it in error). The 2 jandy are installed...

    Plumbing help - moving deck jets to feature pump

    I want to reconfigure deck jets so that they are supplied off of the water feature pump instead of the circulation pump. This is the way it was suppose to be plumbed initially but was not. Doing so will enable me to run the spa spillover/deck jets/waterfall/water slide simultaneously if desired...

    For southern California, we had a biblical amount of rain yesterday which overflowed our pool. Pool level was already high from last weeks rain but yesterday's added at least 5" plus (level was even with top of coping so I don't know how much ran out overnight) I last tested Friday and all was...

    Microbrites flashing red

    Came home this evening to 2 of our 5 micro rites flashing red. They are on different transformers so I assume it is the lights themselves. Any troubleshooting suggestions before i call pentair?

    Temperature sensor location for intellicenter

    Pb is installing equipment and I want the temp sensor in a tee , not drilled thru the pipe. They forgot to install the tee between pump and filter and it would now be much simpler to install it immediately after the filter. Would this pose any issues I am missing? Putting it between pump and...
