    What to replace old Anthony (Anthotouch) subpanel?

    I will do that tomorrow. Since one of the 3 lights is shorting the breaker, I wish I could identify the culprit. I know the wires are located in the J-box. Do you have recommendation for finding the bad one? Thanks again!

    What to replace old Anthony (Anthotouch) subpanel?

    We recently bought a house with a 36,000 gallon 15 yr old Anthony pool a few months ago. After the pool was replastered, the lights stopped working. When the pool man tried to test the GFCI plug attached to the side of the subpanel box, it tripped the breaker inside the box and it won't reset. I...

Please advise if I should get the Hayward SP2600VSP Super Pump VS & SP2300VSP Max-Flo VS. The Super cost $40...

    Waste to have variable?

    Thanks for the quick reply! The utility company only offers $100 rebate for variable pumps & no 2 speed pumps were offered. With the prices at Amazon, it looks like variable speed costs roughly the same as 2 speeds after the rebate. I think the price of electricity here is probably medium. With...
