    Pentair Intellichem “jelly jar” alternative

    My “jelly jar” cracked due to ice. The replacement is $250 which is highway robbery. It doesn’t appear any different than the canisters I use for my water filter system and aquariums. Does anyone know an alternative to use? Tomorrow I plan to see if any of my canisters fit. Thanks!

    Shaft Seal Leak on One-Year-Old IntelliFlo VSF

    I already replaced it with the “better quality” Seal (Chemical/Salt Resistant, P/N: 071732S) from the Seal Quick Kit (P/N: 356198) together with the rest of the o-rings and gasket, but I am very surprised this already happened, since I bought the pump (P/N: 011056) brand new last September...

    Intellicenter keeps resetting

    I have an intellicenter with the I10D expansion board and it resets itself 2-3 times a week. It is resetting the date and time, so once the reset happens it starts back up but with the wrong time and date, therefore my schedules don't run accurately. Any ideas as to why the thing would reset...

    Plumbing Questions for adding MPV to Pentair Quad100 DE filter (with Pentair Superflo VS)

    Need advice on how to install a new WhisperFlo

    I'm about to pull the trigger on a Pentair 011533 WhisperFlo VST pump 2.6HP to replace old bessie which was a 0.75HP single-speed.

    Pentair Intelliflo VS (WhisperFlo) whining noise

    See video here: The whine started in the past few weeks. It originally was just the pump primed/turned on - but has now become somewhat constant. This is a pretty annoying noise/can be heard by the pool and my neighbors so I'd like to address it. Any thoughts on how best to debug this/fix it?

    Pentair check valve flaps “dissolving”. Is this a common problem?

    My salt water pool has five Pentair check valves and one Jandy check valve. The pool is 14 years old. The Jandy valve has never been replaced and looks and works fine. The Pentair valve flappers only seem to last about three years. And cost like $75 - $130 each, and I need five each time...

    Help with controlling old Pentair Intellibrite that turns itself off and on?

    I recently bought a house that came with a pool but no information about the equipment.
