    Pool became very cloudy right after pool tech dumped chemicals in it (still cloudy 24 hours later)

    Hi all, I have a weekly pool service for my pool. Part of their job is to test the water and add chemicals as needed. I also clean the pool myself (emptying the skimmer baskets multiple times a week, clean the filter as needed, check water chemistry etc). Yesterday my pool service tech came out...

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    Found the problem. It was a bad breaker. Just replaced it and everything is up and running again.

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    Left the breaker off for the pumps since yesterday and tried again today. Still dead. Wondering if there is no power getting to the pumps. Haven't tried removing the com link to turn it on manually but will give that a shot this afternoon.

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    Thanks! I'll give this a try tomorrow, starting to get dark out. I did just add a gallon of liquid chlorine and then brushed the pool and spa (added a bit to the spa). I'm also running the robot again to help keep water moving.

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    I'll give that a shot. Is there anything I should be doing in the meantime. It's really hot out so don't want to create a big mess for myself in terms of water chemistry once its back up and running.

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    No luck. Lights still work and the actuators still work but none of the pumps I did check for scortch marks and everything looks normal inside the panel.

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    The heater is on the same breaker as the pump so it powered off with it. No luck yet. Maybe I didn't leave them powered off long enough. I flipped the breaker again to off and will wait longer. Do I also need to shut down the omnilogic?

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    Flipped the breakers for the two pumps, heater and blower to off and set a timer for 10 minutes. If this doesn't work then I'll try waiting longer than 15 min

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    oh wow, that's definitely not something I have tried. I left power off for 10-20 seconds at most. I will try this now and report back. Thank you!

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    I'll check for burn marks. I do have a surge protection in the panel for the whole house which is what the pool is behind as well. I've tried flipping the main breaker (for all pool equipment and omnilogic) off and on as well as the individual breakers for each component with no luck.

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    I went through the service mode config wizard to see if maybe the pumps HUA address got dropped and needed to be reassigned. When going through the assign unique address screen to detect devices and assign one to a pump in the setup wizard, there are no devices detected.

    Troubleshooting Help - After a storm last night my Hayward Omnilogic is unable to power on the 2 VSP pumps and the spa blower

    Hi all, We had a bad thunderstorm last night where we lost power for a second. Since then my pool equipment is not coming online. Equipment: Hayward Omnilogic Hayward VSP pumps (1 for pool/spa and 1 for bubblers) Blower Lights I am able to connect to the Omnilogic via the App, it is connected...

    A time lapse video documenting from start to finish of our pool construction

    It saved me 25%. The pool builder I used gives you both options but it's an additional 25% on all sub-contracted work for the "turn key build". I still used all their recommended sub-contractors since they're already familiar with working together. Basically I just had to call and schedule...

    New Hayward VSP pump sounds like its getting air into it (video)

    So far everything is still running smoothly with the new filter in place. Even the spillover when running the spa in spillover is able to create a much bigger waterfall effect. On the old filter at 100% speed, it was just barely able to push the water over the edge which would run back under the...

    New Hayward VSP pump sounds like its getting air into it (video)

    The issue did eventually return after I had closed the waste line. It wasn't right away but at some point in the next day it returned. The tech that came out removed the filter and let it run without the filter in place and the issue went away. As soon as we put in a new filter it was fine and...

    New Hayward VSP pump sounds like its getting air into it (video)

    How often should I expect to replace the cartridge with a new one? The tech suggested I get a trashcan tall enough to fill with water and mix in a "filter renew" solution then let the filter soak for 24 hours after hosing it down. And to just alternate between the two filters when one needs a...

    New Hayward VSP pump sounds like its getting air into it (video)

    The part I couldn't figure out was the why. What I tried last week on your recommendation instead of taking out the filter itself was opening the waste valve and bypassing the filter which fixed the issue. But when I looked at the filter I couldn't see anything wrong because it looked clean. The...

    New Hayward VSP pump sounds like its getting air into it (video)

    The service tech came out yesterday and immediately identified the issue before even turning on the system. He pulled out the filter cartridge then ran the pump without it to show me a quick way to identify the issue. Everything ran perfectly and quietly without the filter in place. Even though...

    A time lapse video documenting from start to finish of our pool construction

    We broke ground in February 2022 and construction was completed in August. Who knew that editing a 2 minute video would take almost as long! I designed the pool myself using Pool Studio then created the construction plans for the Pool Builder. Acting as my own GC, I sub-contracted out all the...

    New Hayward VSP pump sounds like its getting air into it (video)

    I'll check it again tomorrow. I didn't want to open it up again after I saw everything working fine again. But from what I could see it seemed like small/medium sized leaves. Maybe there is a pebble or some plaster stuck and it just dislodged but remained in the piping.

    New Hayward VSP pump sounds like its getting air into it (video)

    The noise level is the same as it was before the issue started, however, when I compare it to the replacement pump that was replaced maybe a month or so ago for the bubblers, its much louder when running at the same speed. I wonder if this pump just wasn't in the best shape when they installed it.
