    Hayward H400 Heater Control Issues

    Our pool was installed around 2007 and still has the original Hayward H400 heater. We had the original Jandy board recently replaced with the Zodiac iAqualink.

    The issue started this season. My Hayward hp21104t would flip the circuit breaker after running for a few hours. Now it's throwing a LP (Low Pressure) error and won't start at all.

    I think my pump is garbage

    My husband and I bought a house that came with our pool and equipment. We have been struggling for over a month now to clear up the cloudiness with the SLAM process and Taylor k-2006 kit.

    Just fired up the heater [Hayward H400ED2] for the first time this season and boy did it make a racket! Pipes were bouncing around and it sounded like an animal was stuck inside trying to get out. Poking around on the internet, it seems like it's likely the thermocouple valve. The heater is...

    Hayward H200 Remote Terminal block trouble

    My heater will not fire on its own. I can jumper across the remote terminal block to get it to fire. I am wondering, since I don’t have a remote, is it a corrosion issue as it appears the terminals (2) are just looped back to each other? If I clean them up and it still doesn’t fire, can I...

    Brand new salt cell reading 600 ppm below Taylor test...should I care?

    I replaced my cell a couple of weeks ago with a brand new one. Right after I installed it, the K-1766 test (also a brand new replacement) indicated 2200 ppm, which was identical to the reading I was getting from the SWG. I shut it off, added 100 lbs. of salt, and 24 hours after turning my SWG...
