Thx, hopefully this fixes it

Well, by the pics, you can see how difficult it was to extricate. I had to put a sm FH screwdiver into the side and try to wk my way in to create a gap. I tried saving them but no can do until i took pliers and pulled in edges. The top just broke of this one.

Thx poolS. My skimmer tops are square made from 1.25" thick travertine.. i know tbd baskets need to be 8"; not 7.85" or 7.95".

Thx pman! I'll look up v-pak s baskets

Thank n dude. I'm about to go at it again real soon & post back / it's not rocket science; it's nuisance science

Yes, that about sums it up. Also, w such high winds, some type of debris/grit has lodged inside the lip to make it near impossible to move. Its just one of those trial by error but was cking to see if someone had a trick of the trade or technique to help dislodge. I live w all girls so I'm...

I agree, but QC was bad that day at the plant & i would prefer returning them bc they're not that old. The ones i had before for fine, these do not

Thanks Jim The skimmer basket, instead of fitting into the skimmer basket receptacle evenly at the top lip, has gone below the top to make it cockeyed and sagging in one area that has locked it into place. Does this make sense?

Hello to all, Have 2 skimmer baskets that do not seem to want to stay level in the skimmer. One side has sunk [1/2"] into the body of the skimmer and it's locked into skimmer recepticle. I also added a tie-strap to the inside at 3 oclock to help remove, which has worked previously for the...

thanks for all - I passed on the intelliconnect info - appreciate the responses

Update, he's also wanted to control the fountain & lights in the evening when having guests. I informed him if he wants to do that too, he's going to require investing in a whole automation system, correct? If correct, to retrofit a Pentair install, that's prob 3-5K plus a fair amt of...

Jim & all, Houston had a 22 & 26 in February. I have freeze protection. He obviously does not, so wanted to be able to turn on pump to keep water moving when it dips below 28 for an extended period. I guess running it at 1200-1400RPM's 24x7 would solve that.

Hello to all, Have a friend that has a Pentair 3HP Intelliflo (see pic) and wants to be able to upgrade pool Equipment to have remote phone access. He has Comcast/Xfinity WiFi, latest Apple phone, but zero automation. Has a SWG, Pentair 3HP VSP. His goal is to be able to operate VSP while...

Thanks W the type of hairnets i used previously, i never had debris get passed the skimmer baskets except when i changed them. I special ordered skimmer baskets w nothing around the entire circumference of the top. These provide a 100% uniform substrate for the better hairnets to adhere to w...

Thanks Jim. Perfect. Do they come already unfolded or ready to use?

Where the hairnet is sew together at the elastic part, these have a big knot and debris is bypassing there. Glad your wks, but I'm looking for the ones that come ready to use w no unfolding / thx

here is a link w pic for the ones that I have that just do not seem to work. When I ordered the ones I have now, there was no picture of the bag, just one hairnet unfolded how it should be. thanks again...

Hello to all, All the previous orders of hair nets from Amazon worked fine, except my last order. The hairnets in the last order came tightly woven together like a pencil, vs the previous ones that came just Rear the pictures looks like when it's ready to be put on. Has anyone recently...

Have you checked the impeller to make sure it's not bound by palm stringy filiaments? My nbors palm trees are always dropping xxxx into my pool. It gets sucked in and wraps around the bottom of the impeller shaft. It can stop it from running. Also, i never ran my robots out of the water...

Thanks Matt & Jim. It's hard plastic, not rubber. The white O-ring is intact that secures the power cord in the top chassis. It is disassembled until i know what it was so if I have to order something, i still have open access. If nothing is provided to firm up its relevance, then I'll...

Hello to all, Have a Maytronics Proteus DX4 and i found a sm piece of plastic in the impeller area. What signaled this was when i tried restarting it and it would go about 1-2 ft and shut down. There was also a fair amt of palm string filiamets wrapped around the impelller shaft too that i...

Thanks wire. The two hits i pulled from the bad c:breaker did not look burned or charred. Still good copper, so I'm going w maybe just excessive heat, but not sure.

Look at the white labeling on all the breakers. What do you think of the brownish (burn) marks towards the outside ?
