So long story short, i have an old transformer i want to switch out because its freaks me out.. I have a 35watt 12 volt LED bulb i bought from inyo pools. not sure of the brand. Would it be best to just buy a intermatic 300, its $100, is there a cheaper one that would work? Also, any tricks on...

Hey Everyone, I feel like i've been posting a lot lately. Usually i find everything through search, but once again came up empty handed. Just looking for some thoughts. i have a Aqua comfort MBP-125h heat pump. its old but works. I bought it off a cousins friend for $200, he supposedly used it...

hey everyone, so i've been searching for a while on the forum, and cant seem to find anything that details the same issue im having. I just replumbed all new equipment, i had to use a barb fitting to go from 1.5in black poly to 2 inch PVC. i'm having the opposite effect with my VSP that most...

So i'm a total dumbo. I went to home depot and just grabbed a bunch of 90's and 45's without any thought to what kind they were. Well i bought 90's 45's and couplings for sanitary, and drain use, and they were not rated for high pressure. I'm going back tonight to buy and replumb the correct...

Alright, so I have an old pool, and everything i see makes me shake my head. When we bought the house, i guess they did what they could to get it up and running to sell. There was no GFCI breaker for the pool light, installing that this weekend. the converter box is by the electric panel in the...

So i posted a year ago about the bonding of my 70's pool. I'm back at it this year trying to determine if its worth the extra work to add more bonding. All metal, ladder anchors, light jbox, light niche and fence are all bonded together, im already running a line from the fence wire to the pool...

So I ordered a pentair superflo VSP, i have a heat pump, and the new chlorinator just arrived (YAY). I'm seeing more and more talk about surge protection. I spent a lot of time digging and running pipe (125 feet of misery) to my shed, where i installed a 100 amp 6 spot 12 circuit breaker. I know...

Im having trouble finding the correct info on my heat pump through search on the web. I bought a used Aqua Comfort LS MBP-125 for $200 from a friends friend, it was used twice before they switched to propane. The manual provides little information. Im trying to plan ahead and get everything...

So I have an old Centurion 3/4HP single speed pump. The thing is loud and I can hear the bearing is ready to go. Everything is ran down on this thing. I was floating the idea of a variable speed pump (i have a Hayward SP2303VSP and Pentair 342001 in the amazon cart) After lots of reading on TFP...

Im debating over the CircuPool RJ30 or RJ45 (Discount Salt Pool sale). I had no plans to go SWG but I was not good with maintaining chlorine last year, and it just makes to much sense for me. I had algae breakouts 1-2 times a month because I was missing days of adding bleach. We only have the...

So I'm planning, and getting ready to buy a new pump, filter, and heat pump for the pool this year. A little background, Im not not 100% sure on size, but the pool is kidney shaped and around 12,500 gallons. The pump and filter will sit next to a shed that is below the pool deck. The pump and...

I've been doing lots of searching and have now become a crazy man about my pool not being bonded. I am a new father and i want to make sure the pool is safe when she can finally use it. I thought i was fine, and the pool was bonded when i saw a copper wire covered in green sheathing attached to...

Hey Everyone, This is a long post, i was looking for any ideas or suggestions for my current setup, my initial post was just looking for how to wire everything together, but i realized there's just whole lot wrong with my setup and would like some thoughts. Below is a description of my setup...

Hey Everyone, I'm somewhat new to the forum, I usually stick to searching to find what I need to know. Such a huge inventory of knowledge on this board, but I didn't have that much luck this time around. It seems everyone just says to go with a large 406 BTU heater. The pool without a heater...

So I am new to the forums, but have been reading constantly, moved into my house last year. We have an old Gunite pool. I live in CT. All the equipment is from the 1990's (YIKES), but it all still runs, and does the trick for now. 1HP Magnetek pump, and some old metal sand filter. Even the...
