Thanks!

Thanks TS! I did ask if she was able to move the impeller. She said she could but it didn’t feel smooth. Is this normal? She said the only visible leak was when she’d Darn the pump off at the bottom side of that valve. I will tell her to try to run some water over the lid basket.

I am trying to help a friend out with some suction issues. A few days ago she let her pump run dry for about 3-hours on accident when she was trying to drain some junk from the bottom of the spa. Wednesday everything was fine, now today, the pool is not suctioning properly. Filter PSI is...

Ajw22 you are the man!!!!! A thousand times “Thank you”. Im glad you were paying attention b/c I wasn’t. I’d moved past the breakers and was thinking about other possibilities. Everything has come back to life!!!!!! I’ve been working the last three nights so this has been my first day to...

Added pic’s.

Here are some pics. Let me know if I need to take more

I don’t know why I didn’t test this earlier, but this morning I tried to turn on my water feature pump to circulate some water. It didn’t come on either. What I thought may have been a defective pump, may actually be a damaged pump. We had a big storm on Friday and now I’m thinking lighting...

That is exactly why I’m referring to! That is a bummer. Very disappointing. It’s just over a year old. I sure hope I get a new one under warranty. Thanks for the help!

Thanks ajw22 for sharing that thread! In that thread, the guy stated he was still able to turn on his pump via the top panel. I looked at my top panel today and nothing comes on. Does this mean my pump may be dead? I’m still waiting on someone to come look at my stuff. For now I’m just...

I tried resetting all the breakers and waiting 10mins but that didn’t work. I text my PB and he said if that didn’t work someone should prolly come look at it. He’s putting in a call for warranty work for me. It’s under warranty till 2022, so I think I’ll let them handle it. I was just...

So we had a big storm this afternoon and I had my pump running to drain the pool(we have to overflow line). I noticed the water level kept rising and looked on my Hayward AquaConnect app and it said Filter VSP comm error. The pump was no longer running and draining the pool. I tried resetting...

That does concern me a little that he wasn’t sure about the pump he uses and it does raise a red flag for me. I will continue to keep contact with him. He hasn’t lost me just yet. We are getting one more quote next week(our 4th) and we will go from there.

Sorry Jim I promise I not trying to confuse you!!! I am just confused myself. I asked this PB about a VS pump and he basically said I don’t need one because the pool is large. Then, I asked him if he knew if it was dual speed or single speed and if he could tell me model/product number. He...

Jim R, I don’t know which whisperflo. I asked for the product number but was just told it was variable after he had just told me variable speed didn’t make sense for this pool. Unless I misread Pentair’s website, I thought the whisperflo was only dual speed. I will go back and reread...

Thanks Jim R.! I will have to ask him. I have had one PB tell me they don’t use VS pumps because they run on high all the time. From what I’ve read I don’t think that true. Spa Owner, PB has been building for 20+ years. I’m not doubting his expertise but I like to learn and I like to...

Thank you mknauss! And thanks for the links. I have actually been lingering here for a few weeks and have read almost all the articles in Pool School. In all my reading thus far I haven’t seen anything say that VS pumps are limited to the size of a pool. That’s why I was wondering why the PB...

I am in the process of getting pool quotes. My most recent quote includes a Pentair Whisperoflo pump. I think it’s dual speed. The proposed pool is 35 x 20, 97ft perimeter, 552 sq ft and 15,700 gallons. There will be a spa, one bubbler, and three sheer waterfalls. I asked the PB about...
