Recently had the pool refinished (PebbleTec) and after refill the flows are sluggish. Pressure washed the filter, no change. I am wondering if there is a bunch of debris from the resurfacing in the return or outflow to pool. anyone ever heard of this?

Had the above hayward heater installed about a year and a half ago. Of course no longer under warranty and now the temperature control buttons don't work (meaning you can't turn the temp setting up or down). When pushed nothing happens and it continues to show water temperature. No error...

Tested my tap water. 0.6 ppm.

I recently had a salt water generator installed and got a FAS-DPD kit today. I have been using a Taylor kit without FAS-DPD and my test always read a PPM of about 2 trying to match the pink. With the FAS-DpD test I first filled to 25 ml added two scoops and started titrating. I get to 35 and...

I have a spa replacement bulb that is an R20 that fits. I would like to put in a colored bulb except all the colored r20 bulbs are too long. So was wondering from an electrical point of view, can any medium base bulb go into a medium base socket as long as it stays at or under the watt limit...

Yes the box on top of the intermatic timer is the solar box (aqualink II) that regulates the flow valve to the panels based on set temperatures. The white box is obviously the SWG box. You can see where each flex whip is running.

Oops! Corrected the spelling. Made me laugh out loud. I have a pump, solar, and SWG. Can all these be wired to the timer?

[attachment=0:22nkpdhe]photo-8.jpg[/attachment:22nkpdhe] Had a SWG installed and wanted to make sure this looks correct? The pool is controlled by an Intermatic timer. The pool pump and my solar power box are wire directly to the timer. When they installed the Hayward SWG control box they...

I need to change the bulb on my spa light. It is a pentair light and calls for an r20 bulb. I would like to put in a colored bulb but the three that I have bought are all a centimeter or two longer than the one in there. I would have thought all r20 bulbs were a standard length?? The r20 is...

We have an in floor cleaning system that we have used for a while. In my opinion these are not that great for cleaning and still requires weekly vacuuming. I prefer the side wall returns since it causes a top water flow and gives movement to pool which I think looks better. We also have a...

Dolphin Triton, Premier, M4 all created equal? Looking into a pool cleaner. Are the above all essentially the same just in a different skin? All have cartridge filters and seem to have the same specs. Also has anyone bought refurbed on eBay with one year warranty?

[Merged by moderator - Please keep your similar topics together, Thanks, jblizzle] Looking into a pool cleaner. I live in florida and the pool is screened so rarely do I have any leaf problems. Mostly sand and small particulate debris from general use and pavers. I have been leaning toward...

I currently have a Hayward heater and am looking to add a SWG and control system like a Jandy. Since I have the Hayward heater am I restricted to Hayward control centers and SWG's or will a Jandy system be able to control the Hayward heater?

I purchased the AOG 30 in drop in Grill and am waiting for shipment. In the meantime I am going to start building that section of the kitchen. The cutout height is listed at 8.5 inches. My first question is do I hardibacker the area the the bottom if the grill would sit above of leave that...

I am building a completely covered outdoor living space. The space is walled in on three sides and the kitchen and appliances will be against the wall furthest from the opening (18 feet to be exact). I am getting ready to purchase appliances and will be buying an ice maker. The ice maker I am...

Correct in making relief cuts. Is this ideal?

Sorry to be so vague. I am building the outdoor kitchen out of 25 gauge steel studs. There will be 25 gauge steel track on the ground to support the studs. A portion of the outdoor kitchen is curved and I amntrying to determine the best way to construct this portion of the kitchen.

I have a curved wall being incorporated into my build. For this do I snip the sidewalls of the track every couple inches to make it flexible? Is there a better solution?

Thanks for the reply. I have had my egg for a long time and love it. The top is heavy but for both smoking and grilling it's an excellent cooker. My wife is a bit intimidated by it as well. Therefore we still have the gas grill. Nearly 2 feet behind it seems like a lot.

I am in the final planning stages of an ODK and incoprporating a Large Big Green Egg. The maximum diameter of the egg with the top closed is 21 inches. With the top open it is approximately 24 inches with the hinge. There will be a fixed wall behind the egg. For those who have incorpotated and...

Check out AudioEngine if it hasn't already been mentioned. Great product for wireless sound. Customer service is excellent. Have had the AW1 product for 3 years now and it is flawless.

Getting ready to start a build. In the paper and pencil stage currently and haven't gone out and priced anything yet. I came across bbcoach.com and it seems that everything can be purchased from him precut with kits for appliances etc. Has anyone gone this route? Any opinions on his cost vs...

It does appear to be a two stage. There is a regulator about a foot from the heater. It is dark here so I am going to have to look at the meter when it is light out. What I am trying to determine is how big the line is. The gas pipe comes up out of the ground about two feet from the heater...

Natural. Not sure the size. How do I measure? It is a 3/4 inch pipe.

250,000 I had two separate qutoes and both told me that the line could handle the 400,000

I had a new Hayward Heater (H400) installed today. The heater initially fire up fine. Reached 100 degrees on the spa, cooled to 93 I when I checked the heater the "IF" (ignition failure) was blinking. I tried firing it again with the same result. An hour later, after it recirculated the...

I have a Hayward 250 Natural gas heater. About a month ago it started popping when turned on. The pops get so forcefull that the above ground pipes move with each bang. I am sort of a novice and figured maybe air was in the lines and expanding. I have tried to configure every flow change...

I am doing the BBB method and so far so good. I find I am adding chlorine about every other day. Is this normal? Our pool does get used daily and we are in FL with lots of sunlight. CC has consistently been 0. The service who was maintaining it before, would add chlorine once a week but put...
