hayward

Long time lurker first time poster... 2 year old IG plaster pool and thanks to this site I've had good success with liquid chlorine. I'm finally tired of adding the LC and was debating adding a Stenner pump but believe I have decided to go the SWG route. My pool was built with a Hayward...

I noticed my pool this morning was starting turn green after being away on vacation. Checked the Hayward OmniLogic screen and my average salt reading is 65,486ppm and instant 65,475ppm (obviously both in accurate). My question is has anyone had this happen? If so did it indicate a bad cell or...

My Hayward 3/4 hp pump just died and I was gifted a 1hp Hayward. Can/should I do it or will it wreak havoc with my system? I have a 28,000 gallon pool. I don’t have the money to upgrade to a vs pump at this point btw.

I am looking to replace my single speed Super II pump with a variable speed pump. I am considering the TriStar VS 900 which has a 1.85HP motor. I am trying to understand how easy/expensive this pump would be to service down the road. The parts diagram from Hayward lists a motor (part...

Considering purchase of a TriStar VS 900 model W3SP3202VSP. As I understand it, this is the version that is NOT a part of their expert line (the expert line version is SP32900VSP). I am trying to understand what the warranty would be for this pump if I install it myself. Leslie's...

Hi guys, My pool heater was giving an IF error earlier this season after firing and then shutting down multiple times. I replaced the flame sensor and this seemed to fix things. A little later in the season, it wouldn’t fire at all, so I replaced the Ignitor and she started working again. It...

I have had this heat pump (HP21404T) working very well for over 2 years - suddenly starting tripping shortly after turning on, anywhere between 5-45 seconds, usually short. My pool guys are swamped - 1 - attached photos 2 - electrician who originally installed came by, lines, power readings...

Hi folks. My Hayward SP3400VSP runs constantly on the following schedule programmed by previous owners: 10:30P-9:30A: 1500 rpm (low flow overnight) 9:30A-10:30P: 2900 rpm (normal flow for daytime) This seems to work fine. Good circulation in the day, and enough flow overnight to keep the pump...

Hi, We are having our fiberglass pool resurfaced currently, and it makes sense to replace our pool light whilst we are at is, as it's clearly pretty old. The light is a SP540 300w and I know those aren't sold anymore as any new light has to be LED. I called Hayward support and they weren't...

I have a Hayward heater (not sure what model, but has 5-6 burners). The original setup linked to iAquaLink was done by the previous owner. Everything worked find controlling the system until I had to clean out a burner line due to a spider web in the first burner’s “pipe.” Thereafter...

New homeowner, in-ground pool included. Built in 2004, approximately 20,000 gallons, plaster finish. There are two pumps: Hayward Super 2 (single speed 2.2 HP) - This unit runs the main filter Hayward Super 2 (single speed 0.75HP) - This unit runs the water feature (the water feature is...

Hi there! I just bought a house that has an above ground salt water pool and I have idea where to begin!! I've found youtube videos to set up the pump, filter, etc but unsure how to clean this mess up. I've skimmed out large debris and I think my next step is vacuum to waste then shock? Is this...

Hi, I have a Hayward Tristar VS 900 that was damaged in a hail storm. I have a replacement controller but when I took off the old controller the wire harness came apart and I have no idea which of the 4 wires go to which plug on the controller. Hayward won't help. Does anyone have this pump and...

Hi folks. I need some help finding some information about a Hayward pump. We are purchasing a house which had a Hayward variable speed pump installed in 2015. The seller provided 2015 receipt (from Leslies) shows Leslies item 4008 "HYWRD ECOSTAR VS PUMP SP3400VSP", which I believe is (or was)...

Hi to all, I tried to get some answers last year but after failing to communicate with a competent Hayward engineer, I will try again here. Last year, I got a pool installed and I got the Hayward Omnilogic controller with a HP70AEE variable heat pump. My whole home is automated using Home...

Hi, looking for help please on Hayward 2.7 Tristar VSP pump, little less than 2yrs old. Symptom = pump looks completely unpowered, pump control panel has no display. Ran for 30min or so, then it tripped breaker when it happened. Using Omnihub setup Troubleshooting = 1) turned all breakers back...

Hello all I have a Hayward Superpump ¾ HP that recently started smoking from the motor. I immediately shut it off and contacted my local pool company. They quoted me $1300 to replace the pump, but they are unable to service or replace just the motor. I believe based on the serial number, the...

Last year - when I turned the heat on, it automatically adjusted the pump to the required pump settings. This year, and perhaps with the most recent OmniLogic update, when I turn the heat on - it will not turn the pump up automatically, it now requires me to do it manually (high/100%). I set...

Hi Everyone, Have been having one issue after another with my spa heater. A couple of months ago, I got some great advice from everyone here and finally got my spa heater running (found someone to clean the heat exchanger and replaced the temp limit switch, adjust the gas pressure). Everything...

Hello- We had our pool opened on house we just purchased- it is a 16x32 in-ground pool with a Pentair CC200 filter and Hayward Superpump. Most of my experience has been with DE/Sand filters and Saltwater pools so thanks to this site for helping me learn some. We have one return jet that seems to...

Hi, please help… I had to replace the toggle switch on this Hayward super pump Which is two speed… I’m having trouble remembering where the wires go. There is a plastic cover designating where it goes. However, when I turned it on, and had the switch turned a certain way, I saw sparks come from...

My Hawyard Colorlogic have failed multiple times- only once under warranty- flicker of death, and we are finally replacing with Jandy. The transformer that is already in place is a Hayward. Can I use that or is there something unusual about it and I need a Jandy or other brand?

Hi! Opened up to a nearly crystal clear pool again but quickly noticed that my Hayward skimmer is badly cracked and needs to be replaced. We are not the original purchasers of this pool so I have no clue what style it is. It really looks like it isnt a standard wide mouth but has a wide mouth...

I have a pool/hot tub combination. It's all on the same filter system, but you can configure the valves to and from the pumps to connect to only the pool, only the hot tub, or both. I pay a company to open and close my pool at the beginning and end of the season. They've maintained this pool...

Hello, I have yet another dreaded Hayward IF error. I feel like I have tested and replaced just about every component in this heater over the last couple years. This is a H300FDN that is about 11 years old. I replaced both control boards two years ago. So far I have verified the Ignitor is...

Hey everyone!!!...I have a Hayward H200 pool heater. This year I went to turn on and everything lights up and starts but it doesn't ignite and shuts down with "IF" code. Here's what I've done.... 1. Removed igniter and tested. It glowed red hot. 2. Open gas line and clear air and dump trap, all...

Hello all, I have a Hayward pump (1HP SuperMax I think?) for my in ground salt pool. The pump ran dry at the end of summer 2021 while we were away on vacation, so I don’t know how long it had been running. I figured I’d worry about it next spring. I did not open the pool all of 2022 because...

Started my pool up yesterday. Upgraded to the latest firmware. Initially no issues. Everything appeared to be running fine. Water temp was displayed on the control panel and app. After a few hours I received an alarm "Comm Loss MSP to Device: 0145038827 HUA: MP" which is - Comm Loss Main System...

Hi everyone, I have an AquaLogic / GoldLine / Hayward AQL-P-4 Logic Control Board that was working fine when I closed my pool last year. When I tried to open it a few days ago, I noticed that my Logic Board is kind of going crazy. It seems like the information on it is inverted (needs to be...

I have a 10yr old (but clean, lightly used) Hayward H400FD heater that began acting up several months ago. Unique from many other IF-related posts I've seen, mine always works perfectly for at least 30 minutes before cutting off, then going through 3 re-ignition attempts, then going to...
