    AQL-PS-8 Remote Emulator App

    Was thinking more along the lines of turning the spa on on the way home kinda thing. Not worried about other folks. Kids are outta the house and wouldn’t do anything if, say, my wife was home and in the pool. But this helps regardless

    AQL-PS-8 Remote Emulator App

    Awesome!! So can you set it up where you can be remote and still use it? Or do you have to be in the same network as the hardware?

    Aqualogic PS-8 control via web using ios

    Ive seen a few posts about using android and windows to control a PS-8 via wifi. Thanks to the folks like mas985 who have done that. Has anyone figured out how to control one via web using IOS? Or do i need to buy an OmniPL upgrade? I don't have any home automation but did buy a Elfin EW11...

    AQL-PS-8 Remote Emulator App

    Thanks. Im slowly figuring things out. Great work from you guys as i read through this more i assume this is local wireless control only? i.e. the controller (windows PC) is on the same wifi network as the elfin and the elfin is not able to be controlled from an offsite pc or via the web? I...

    Best place to sell working but unneeded pump motor?

    Im sure I coudl get them disposed of, but this is a relatively new motor in great condition. Figure someone who doesn't want to spend a lot on a new VS pump mght be willing to buy it.

    Best place to sell working but unneeded pump motor?

    I have the whole pump but the front is leaking (tried fixing it multipel times). Figured someone whos single speed motor crapped out might want a relatively new (2 yo) mtor vs shelling out a couple grand for a new VS pump (like I just had to do)

    Best place to sell working but unneeded pump motor?

    We just replaced our main single speed pool pump with a variable speed pump due to a leak we could not fix between the motor housing and the main pump. The pump is a 2004 Jandy Stealth 2 HP. The motor was replaced in 2021 when you could still get single speed motors. What's the best place to put...

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    Thanks guys. Spa has 6 jets and the 2HP pump does fine right now. 13KG inground with large spa. Setup is pool mode pulls from pool returns to pool returns plus one in the spa, spa mode pulls and returns to spa, spillover pulls from pool returns to spa. Rheem 400KBTU Heater that is only used in...

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    Think the Tristar VS 900 is enough for a salt system on a 13000 gal pool? Current pump is 2HP single speed. Would I run vs all day vs the 8-10nhrs I run single speed?

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    Where do you get the shielded cable? And how does the connection work since the terminal block is wires vs a connector

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    So the black and yellow wire on the remote controller are the same as the comm links on the pump? If not I’d be basically tying the remote controller directly to the pump with the connection being the terminal block thet is also connected to ??? On the board

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    Thanks. I was trying to make sure that when I push a button on the remote controller it doesn't affect the pump directly since they woudl be tied together. I.e its the same thing as tying the black and yellow wires from the controller to the black wire on the pump controller. Guess Im not sure...

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    Just pulled the panel off the Aqualogic and see four wires going to the terminal block 18 mentioned (red black yellow and green, 1/2/3/4). Pretty sure this is for the wired remote controller I have in the house to control things. If I get a Hayward VS pump, can the VS connections piggy back on...

    Need new pump for Goldline Aqualogic PS8

    Awesome. Thanks. As mentioned I am pre Prologic, Aqualogic running 2.66 so do not have removable connection blocks, so guess its remove wires manually. I just went out and see the Variable speed option on filter config. So thats cool. Guess it only works with Hayward pumps tho? No chance working...

    How would these pumps get wired up? My install manual shows 2 speed control with four wires and two relays but my pool guy says VS pumps are three wire only?

    Wiring and programing variable speed pump on Goldline Aqualogic with rev 2.66 SW

    Seen multiple posts from 2019 onward stating that if you have a Aqaualogic PS-8 with Rev 2.65 or higher, it shroud be able to control a VS pump, but no specifics on how to wire it up or program it So looking for anyone using a AL PS-8 with a variable speed pump. How did you wire it up and how...

    Debating on Robot models, do I need waterline cleaning for an above ground pool?

    Thanks. On our pool, the rocks are in the waterline (i.e the bottom of the rocks are submerged). So seems like waterline cleaning woudl help where there is tile, but no way it would work at all on the rocks. The "bench" is a ledge bult into the pool similar to a big step you can sit on.

    Debating on Robot models, do I need waterline cleaning for an above ground pool?

    Reading a lot of posts about robots and thinking of getting one. Couple things I didn't see input on related to our pool setup. We have a clover shaped 13000 gallon play pool with pebbletec vs plaster. We also have water line tile on part of the pool(where there is decking) but natural rocks on...
