Bringing up this old post hoping that someone still remembers it. I have the model 28679EG and my bearings I think just went out. It was making a lot of noise and now it's just humming and not starting the pump. The impeller free spin's with no issues, but when power is applied it can't move...

Thanks! Yeah putting the skimmer in a felt safe since I bolted the frame in and then cut the hole. This time I would be making a circle hole and then putting the return tube in.

I have an Intex 18,x 48" round. Last year I added a Hayward skimmer box and a solar heater with a second dedicated pump. I ran that return over the side as I wasn't ready to cut another hole into the liner. Worked, okay but when all the kids get in, the hose hanging over the edge always get beat...

Thanks everyone of the feedback. Sounds like for me US over here I need to look at the GL-235 and buy to panels and ru the in parallel. It was nice in the 80's on Monday, and now raining today. The pool temp was around 78-80 with my DYI small 500' 1/2 hose running on a temp sensor and solar...

Thanks for the feedback so far. The issues is I need a controller to actually turn the pump on (dedicated to the solar) and the pentair and Hayward GL-235 only control the valve to route the water. Thanks for the info on the 2 panels vs. 1.

Thanks for all the feedback. My first challenge will be getting the water up to the roof, Got that. I think I have to run 1.25" or 1.5" piping up to the roof first, then build a manifold to break it down to multi 1/2" pipes. Then outlet to another 1.25" or 1.5" manifold and then back to the...

The panels are 12 feet up from ground level. The sump is in the pool 48" down at ground level. I was wondering if I primed the pipes (don't want to do that unless I'm sure it will work) it that would help get it moving. If you think it would work with a bigger pump let me know and I can...

Thanks, I get the pump info and post it. Just so we are talking apples to apples it's two 500' pipe lengths. Not 2500'. Thanks
