Use a wrench to hold on the back of the motor shaft, 1/2" open? Then use a large channel locks to hold on to unscrew the impeller

Use a rubber mallet and large channel locks

Arneson! That's old school. It was standard issue when I started doing pool service in the 70's. It was also standard to screw down the tile sprayer on the top of the cleaner to cut down the calcium buildup caused by it. Any of you remember the Ray O Vac?

Haven't seen this kind of pool in a long time. It is a vinyl liner pool Before you look at liners, have a pool pro look at the equipment and definitely pressure test the plumbing.

You really need a 400k model for your pool. As a general rule bigger is better when it comes to sizing a heater for a pool

Where is the bottom of the heater?

Like the movie "Capricorn One"?

How about the transformer?

You mean the sun that revolves around the earth?

You are a clever dude, or dudett 🙂

Have you checked the impeller? Have you used à drain jet?

That's when I turn into a werewolf! Arroo!🙂🐺

No. You can't remove the gunite. You might as well plan on building a new pool.

This is really ridiculous. I've been involved in dozens of new pool builds and I've never seen this issue before. The light can is supposed to be tightly connected to the rebar grid and having the conduit also makes it secure. Have these construction guys ever heard of a tool called a level?

You are a man after my heart!

It looks like you have a cartridge filter. I'm sure that it's plugged up. To test that just remove the cartridge and see if you still have water movement. The pressure gauge might also be defective.

I've been in the pool business for 51 years now and I have probably put liquid chlorine in the pump pot around a dozen times and have never seen any damage from it. I don't recommend it but I would do it in an emergency. It's better than losing a service account.

I would think that the leak is in the valve,Look around the screws which would mean the valve cover o ring.You might check it by shutting off the pump and listen for an air leak or l or look for any water dripping.

I bought it at a Leslie's Pool Supply. I'm sure you can find it online

In the old days we would use sodium thiosulphate to neutralize excess chlorine, the OLD days

Loosing 1/8 " of water day would not be an indication of a pool leak, and I used to live in LA

I used to have an attachment that was able to sand spots in the plaster that hooked up on the pool pole.Do they still have those? Sometimes muriatic acid makes it look worse.I also had a tool that would use a 3 inch tablet to rub out the stains that would attach to the pole

Those are the high limit sockets The green wire is a jumper wire. You are missing both high limit switches.

I'm sorry, I misunderstood the picture you sent. There are no venturi fittings in that picture of your spa and there are no air lines

There has to be an air line

You can. You simply plum the air blower into the air line. I've done it many times. Depending on the location, adding a check valve might be necessary

If you get a new nozzle it's easy to put it in, you can use a socket wrench.A long thin screwdriver will be able to dig out the putty,

Spa jets have removable nozzles in them If one of the nozzles is missing that will cause this scenario

I would guess that you need to prime the pump by adding water to the pump pot, and check the pump lid o ring. I assume that if the pump was able to prime before, it's ok now. Having filter top sucked down is hard but it works. Be sure to totally lube the tank o ring, that helps a lot and close...
