Sorry - had to get that off my chest. For those of you that are having trouble - my iAqualink stopped connecting to the app, as well as the web interface. Nothing more frustrating than losing access to a pool controler that used to have internet access. I tried to reset the password a bunch of...

Hey all, I noticed my waterfall wasn’t working well at low flowrates and the mortar is eroded from the edges of the waterfall. Am I ok to just use premixed grout that is sand colored from the tile aisle at Home Depot, or should I use a mortar ? This seems simple enough, any recommendations...

I have an iaqualink - works fine on the web app / phone; it is a fine vintage program from Jandy - . (For those of you who don't have it - it's pretty much identifcal to the RS8 interface on the Jandy Handheld. ) So, until the past week or so, now getting a message that it's not able to...

Wanted to share - was immediately suspicious of chlorinator work I did last summer, but ended up finding something way more interesting. Symptoms - Noticed the 220 breaker was tripping infrequently - happened 1-2x week when it was cold. Not an ideal situation when the pool is potentially...

Hi All, I've done my research (YouTube, google and tfp) and found lots more support on fixing aquarite vs aquapure, so planning on going with a 25k aquarite for my 12k pool. Have a couple of photos to share and wanted to get some ideas on the best way to retro fit it. 02 shows the proposed...

All, I have an approximate 12k gallon pool, with Jandy Aqualink / iAqualink automation. I would like to be able to control the percentage of chlorine from the control panel and schedule it with the iAqualink web software. I have a couple of questions. 1) Will the UI be able to reduce the...

All, Been working on esp8266 based pool dosing sensor / affectors. Wanted to share the work to date. This is a bunch of little primitives stitched together that permit things like ph, temp, and ORP tracking. I'm a long term user of this forum and happy to try and share some of the work in the...

Hi - I'm planning a replacement for a a Jandy single speed stealth 2.5, for power savings and quiet. The setup currently have an aqualink rs ps pda based panel. I'm considering upgrading that to the iq-20, but for now - want to get the benefits of the longer pool run time at the lower pressure...

I tried to just reuse the bulkhead orings and retighten (don't do this) with the big ole pipe wrench but the orings were too flattened, and I eventually split the threads on the bulkhead here it screws into the inside the tank elbows thank goodness I didn't injure the inlet or outlet elbows...

Hi All - have a slow drip on the bottom filter connector and looks like it's the filter outlet - as I look at the parts diagram, and looks like a couple of o rings which shouldn't be too bad, any concerns and any tools besides a strap wrench to take off and retighten? Also - any led...

Hi Everyone - I'm moving from the Northeast to Dallas, and changing from a vinyl 28k to a pebbletec 35k (no idea on volume really) - challenges in the northeast were 1) full sun algae - responded well to borax, brushing and chlorine 2) opening / closing leaf load (mostly just due to wet leaves...

So I'm thru opening, and was looking at the amount of DE that is required for the 4036 filter media - and I found an online manual vs label discrepancy [snip] from the pentair online manual Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.) Precoat Requirements Filter Model *By Weight Number Pounds 4024 2.4 4036 3.6...

Hi All, Getting ready to replace a 2 way 180 degree Jandy with a 3way to provide for a clean water pressure side leg to feed a pool cleaner. Have a couple of questions, and then wanted to make sure I'm going down the right path. In a normal lots of space plumbing world - would be able to add...

Hi all Have a friend that bought a house with a Sylvan pool and the filter is a Clearwater DE. The filter is about 48 inches tall from the bottom of the filter to the top of pressure gauge , does anyone know if that is the 48 or 60 square foot filter? Appreciate the help. Sent from my...

Adding borax wasn't bad and ph rebalanced out nicely after the acid. (Just remember - do as you oughta - add acid to water ) before starting the TA was ballpark correct, about 80-100 ppm. Couple of questions.. 1) Does the TA chemistry change once the borates are in play? (I guess that the...

Hi guys, I just got back from a week of vacation to a situation. The Intelliflo, and the pb4-60 I installed in the past month are not turning on. When I got to the house - the breaker was tripped, not sure WTF there - but after checking both legs of the 220, they are hot to both the...

Hi All, I've been working on building a working Frankensquirty from a 360 which I just rebuilt, and a 380 + hose that a friend had for parts. I changed out the feed tube, and that seems to plumb up fine on the 360, but it seems "slow" compared to when I had the 360 feed hose in it. (Just...

Hi - I'm considering replacing my 10 yo Whisperflo with an Intelliflo, but wanted to know if the inlet / outlet ports line up EXACTLY - there are 2" unions on each side of the whisperflo (top / back ports), but the height dimensions of the whisperflo and intelliflo look like they are about 1/4"...
