Yes, i probably should not have put that ladder in. It is a pool ladder from Doheny that was expensive a bunch of years ago but we preferred the Intex one when the kids were little. Now they are teens and some of the friends are BIG kid-adults and that Intex ladder is pretty shakey and narrow...

Nope. City water and very newly filled. Fireworks account??

Vit c immediately took care of it. So …. Not algae or algae??

will do. tomorrow, apparently, as kids are still in pool.

Update -- i was not up to trying to do electrical testing. Finally got on pool service guy's schedule -- they came out today and apparently there was a rodent nest and damage to wires, including the ignition wire. Heater works (I think -- my kid is having a pool party so I can't mess with it...

Scenario - * new water this year (seasonal pool) * about 40-50 cya (i am bad at that one -- likely closer to 40) * i know pool got down to 2 fc for a day in the last two or three weeks but otherwise the min is 3 and i normally dose it up to 6 or 7 each evening. never any cc's over .5 and...

ajw — thanks. I will re-watch the video I posted as it showed the guy doing that. I will need to go to a store and ask what that tool is, then get one. Thanks again.

Thanks, b.lu for trying to get help for me — I am sure I will need to wait until a day or so after the holiday …. People who know about pools are enjoying their pools, as they should. I just have time to look at it this weekend so I am posting while I can, but do not expect or want anyone to...

I have it on high speed and have tried it with the secondary suction thing open and closed.

Okay, so I found this video of a guy troubleshoooting his master temp with afs issue. I watched it and guess I can start down his trouble shooting path … BUT his unit went on despite the service heater light being on …. He was able to feel the blower sucking, etc. Mine does not do anything at...

Okay, looks like AFS light with service heater light can mean air flow issue. Saw suggestions to check for mouse nest in blower. You have no idea how much i do not like the idea of a mouse next anywhere in my zip code. But i want this thing to work, so i looked by taking off the vented black...

Better photos. One with light on and one with power off to hopefully be able to read the labels better. I do see that the LED11 just means the service heater light is on. So it is the other one I am trying to figure out.

This is what I have. Service Heater light on. No attempt of firing or blower as far as I know.

Ignore my Last two posts above — here is what I should have posted: 1. Gas switch inside pool heater unit is “on” (and was to begin with, I changed nothing there) 2. water pressure switch is in place and purple wires are attached (and was to begin with, I changed nothing there) 3. Gas line...

Can’t figure out how to delete that prior post —- ignore for now. gonna dig a bit on my own and post back when i really need you

Opened up the panel opposite the one I had previously. Found the on/off switch for gas to unit (as i understand it) — it was on “on“ position, so that is not the issue. No clue on water pressure switch. Where would i find that? Here is inside the unit where the on/off switch is. … should the...

Crud. Turned it on and immediatley got "service heater" light. Back to reading. Ugh.

Rain, rain, go away. My friends at TFP made me brave and now I want to go try this!!

b.lu -- thanks. i think you are right that I took off the wrong panel. I had not realized there was more than one. It is raining now but when it clears off I will do what you suggested and see what happens when I just try to use it per normal. I am hoping they did not remove the water...

ajw22 -- thanks so much for all of that, especially letting me know an explosion is not likely. Yay!! I will try to get it going tomorrow morning if it is not raining. I kept thinking that they usually left me a little bag of goodies, some from pump and some from heater. I have no idea where...

1. Am I correct that i need to hand-turn the red knob thing in the green circle to “open” by turning it so the wings line up with rather than cross the pipe? 2. I do not see the toggle switch in the picture of the inside of the heater. I suppose it could be behind the instructions hanging...

Thanks, B.lu — i am working on getting brave enough to try it tomorrow morning.
