No. Just a pool timer that turns everything on/off.

First, wanted to say thank you to the folks on this forum that have been so helpful this year - and prior years. Helped save a ton of $$$, keep my pool sparkling, and avoid the unnecessary junk chemicals in my pool. This year my 9 year old 2HP Jandy Pro Series Plus HP (single speed) is...

All good advice and experience. Thank you! Next I have to figure out how to buy the proper VS pump for my pool. Pool place says $2700 for a VS Pump plus $400 install which seems insane.

I have always had a fixed 2HP pump which is on its way out so I’m considering a variable speed pump. Does having a variable speed pump affect the way you need to run your SWG? Do you need to increase the percentage runtime for the SWG or run the pool more hours to ensure enough chlorine is...

That’s what I figured too. Unfortunately. :rolleyes:

Thanks Jim. That is very helpful. I’ll look into it to save $$ when not running the waterfall.

2 Jandy Watercolors LED large lights installed. No transformer so it’s the 120v version. One in shallow end and one in deep end. When it’s all working the color saturation in the pool is unbelievable. shallow end light working as expected. Deep end started fine then shut off...

I have a waterfall feature. Does a variable speed pump work still or would it not put enough pressure through the system?

In past years it goes 12 hours a day

Inground pool with 9 year old Jandy Pro Series PlusHP 2hp pump that’s very loud this year at startup. Seems to be fine in terms of priming, pressure, etc. I assume it’s time to replace it. Where do you all buy your pool pumps from? I see prices in the $300-$2500 range on Amazon. My...

I didn’t know fixed HP was banned now. Good to know! I’ll have to check out the Nidec then!

Pool build finished spring 2014 so 9 years old now. In ground, vinyl liner, cartridge filter, with Jandy PHPM 2.0 pump for 33k gallons. Opened yesterday and pump is working but very loud. Pool place said they’ll replace motor and seal for $850. Looking to find out if that’s a reasonable...

It’s all coming from the skimmer that has a hole in the back with a 1 inch PVC attached.

Yes. Slowly goes out overflow which over time leads to a lot of water.

Minimal except when we get torrential rains and flood alerts which no amount of French drain would solve either. :)

Gutters are uphill from the pool so not a great option. The mud and general water flow into the yard is the issue. Had the pool installed in 2014 but the prior neighbor had no issue with the water but I think there must be a better solution anyway. Isn’t a French drain basically just a...

Live uphill from another house which a new neighbor just moved into. At our first meeting he complained that my passive skimmer overflow (no pump) was draining down into his yard. Obviously I want to keep the peace with all my neighbors so thinking of how to address this situation. Thinking...

Did not but searched online to find the match.

When I turn this diverter, I get some water leaking up from the valve stem. Before I disassemble it to look inside I was hoping to buy a new one to use for replacing parts (or the whole thing). Looks like the 90 degree input PVC is 2” but not sure about the other side. I’m guessing...

My pool pump is showing some rust on the external surface. Has anyone used Rustoleum High Heat or a similar solution on their pool pump? Any issues?

I'm trying to identify a replacement part for this wedge that holds in my in-ground pool ladder or should I simply go to the hardware store and find a matching bolt to replace the broken one? Pictures of the broken bolt & wedge attached.

SOLVED: Today, my new Jandy SWG sensor arrived. Quick install to my control box and onto the SWG cell. Turned on the system and a couple moments later, I have FLOW, 3.1 salinity, 84 degree pool temperature. It's now generating chlorine and acting as expected. Filter PSI sitting at 8...
