I just had an inground, salt pool installed at my new house. I've had a pool before and reviewed everything carefully with the builder. My last pool was gray and I liked that minor discoloration was not noticeable. He said, no problem, white plaster can be cleaned easily. So I went with white...

I just bought a new place and want to put in a pool. It will be about 570 square feet (swim lane, hang out area and spa). My last pool was salt and used jandy equiptment. Questions: I'm looking at a mineral system. What do y'all think? Also, the builder I'm considering proposes Hayward. He...

I was going to disassemble it tonight and try to figure it out. Where would hte grommets be? Are they just small rubber rings? What are htey attached to? - - - Updated - - - She said she doesn't see anything blocking the impeller, but that it seems like it must be rubbing on something...

My pool was at first pumping, but making a humming sound sometimes. My pool repair woman was convinced it was the capacitor so she changed it. It kept doing the same thing, then stopped pumping altogether. Just would hum like it was trying to kick on. So she changed the impeller thinking it...

Thanks for the advice. I ended up just using my old PDA. But I still cannot get it to schedule cleaning, pumps, etc. It can only turn things on or off. the guy who put it in for me somehow programmed it to run certain things regularly. But I can't reach him to find out how he did that. He used...

So, I was having problems with my pool equipment, and this technician took out my old jandy aqualink control board and installed a new one that he said was covered under warranty. But when I try to use it with my old PDA, the PDA controls all the functions except it doesn't have a control for...

Should I pour shock in for now and stir it around? I'll post parts when I get home. So I came home and looked for the owner's manuals. The original system installed in 2004 was a Polaris Sol 1000. A few years later, the board burned out or something. Anyway, I bought a conversion kit. The...

Having more problems then I thought getting electrical fixed. My electrician drew a dead end calling the manufacturer and distributors. Not sure the problem. I have an aqualink control panel that originally came with a large remote control. I later upgraded it with some Jandy product. I can...

I checked all of the breakers. Then I got a hold of my electrician friend. He found a 9 volt battery that was dead inside the panel and thought at first it was that simple. But after replacing the battery, we still couldn't get it to turn on. He checked the fuse, and everything else. He...

So of course I can't find an electrician over memorial day to easily. I'm worried about the pool getting green without the pumps running. Any suggestions on what I can dump in there to keep it clean while the pumps are down? Can I buy shock and just dump it in without pumps? Any suggestions...

I tried hitting the spa mode button on the panel before the power went out and the valve on the right (goldline) didn't move. I didn't see any switch on the valve itself. Is there supposed to be one? I only found switched on the left polaris valve.

If it's not doing that, does it mean I probably need a whole new valve? If so, any particular type recommended given the equiptment I have?

When I switched it to spa mode, just the valve on the left (the polaris) did a 180. The last valve on the right didn't do anything. Then shortly after the whole thing stopped working. I cant turn anything on at all. So now I'm trying to reach an electrician to see what's wrong with that...

Do you know why it would not be switching? I took a picture of the valves when running ok in pool mode. There are 5 valves. The big valve to the left is the polaris, the big valve to the right is the goldline. The second picture is of the switches on the polaris.

I am having a similar problem. I have a pool and spa with a spillover between them. I have it programmed to run the filter pump on pool mode 2x a day. Today, I used the remote control to turn on spa mode in order to get the spa heated. The spa started draining. I read this and thought maybe...

So I have a pool with an attached spa. It's a aqualink I think. I have a remote control. It always worked fine. Today, I turned it on spa mode in order to heat it, and it started draining. It looked like it was draining into the pool. I turned everything off on the remote and tried again...
