Hello All - My primary pump started to make a high-pitched noise a couple of days ago so I think it's on its last legs. It's 8 years old, and is making the noise whenever it is running. The pump is a Hayward Tristar Power End 2HP 2-Speed, model #SPX3215X20Z2PE. I'm considering doing this...

I have a Jandy RS controller system with an AquaLink One Touch control panel inside the house. The board and all associated electronics are the original equipment that was installed when the pool was built in 2004. The system will completely shut down at random times - blank screen on the One...

Hello - Strong thunderstorms came through here late Monday night. On Tuesday morning, my Aqua Rite pad (inside the house) was blank. No lights on at the AquaLink control panel. I flipped the breakers off and then back on, and the panel lights did not come on. Shortly thereafter, the main...

Good Afternoon! The original booster pump (Hayward 5060) that powers my cleaner (Polaris 280) has finally expired. It was installed with the pool build in 2004. I see a Hayward 6060 for about $250 and a Polaris PB4-60 for $240, both at Amazon. Does anyone have any experience / opinion on...

I installed a new T-15 on Thursday. During late September I had added salt in response to a low salt reading of 1,700 on my Remote. The salt display has risen to 5,800 in the 48 hours since installation. Last night, I turned the Aqua Rite switch to "off." The Aqua Rite box display shows...

Woke up this morning to find that the spa, which spills over into the pool, had lost about 1/3 of its water overnight. Equipment was in service mode with all equipment shut off at 11:00 pm. The equipment had been in service mode and main pump running 24/7 since last week when I started shock...
