I guess my pool wanted to send me a goodbye gift. The bearings on the pump went bad 15 days before the closing on the sale of my house. Fortunately, I found another pump and replaced it on Monday. In the last two months, I have also had to replace the MPV on the sand filter and the salt cell. The new owners have a lot of nice new equipment on their pool.
Bad timing - pump

Think of it as buying favor with the universe that the old owners of the new house did what was right on their way out the door as well.

I wish. The old owners of my new house left me a dead robot, a VSP programmed to run at 3000 rpms, and dying shrubs around the perimeter of the pool deck.

Mine left me with a Hayward Super Pump that was sucking air, old brittle collapsed DE grids, PVC valves that wouldn't close, grey algae carcasses in the filter, and a retaining wall covered in scale that needed to be fixed and repointed. Quite a mess. (Almost done)
