Light Junction Box
Hayward light junction box.[1]
Autofill Pot
That's an auto-fill pot. The water level changes with the water level of the pool. If that float drops, it opens a water valve that directs water into the pool. It looks like a system made by Stetson.[2]
Check Valve Weight
Found in filter. Weight from the flapper from the check valve.[3]
Rope Hook for Safety Rope
Rope hook for a safety divider rope to separate shallow from deep areas. Typically positioned where the floor begins sloping downward to the deep end.
Skimmer Basket with Weight
Skimmer basket with weight on bottom.[4]
Gizzmo
Used to plug skimmers when winterizing pool.
Jet Air Adjustment
Sitting on top of the coping on the shallow end is a screw in plug when unscrewed water pours out.[5]
This is an air adjustment for for a spa jet.
Air tubes for step returns
Air tubes for the step returns. The step jets are probably venturi returns.[6]
Pentair Heater Air Grate
Found in the pump basket during pool opening.[7] Pentair Air Orifice 77707-0111.
Grate from the heater that keeps debris out of the air orifice. It snaps in.
Coping Clips
These are the coping clips to cover the seams.[8]
Solar Heater
Kokido Keops Solar Dome Above Ground Pool Water Heater[9]
Safety Grate
Grate that covers an equalizer line running to the skimmer.[10] AquaStar 1.5" Safety Grate Insert with 1.5" MPT
Pool Cleaner Ladder Baffle
The plate on the ladder is to keep an automatic pool cleaner like a Polaris from getting stuck behind the ladder.[11]
A&A LeafVac
A&A Manufacturing LeafVac Debris Removal Canister[12]
A&A IFCS Distribution Valve
Distribution valve of an A&A IFCS. A&A part 534664.[13]
Nature2 Mineral Cartridge
It's a Nature 2 mineral cartridge. Useful if you want to add metals to your pool for DIY staining. Completely useless and eventually the cartridge will start to leak.
Fiberstars Fiber Optic Light Box
Fiberstars was acquired by S.R. Smith. The fiber optic light system is obsolete. Manuals for it can be found at S.R. Smith.[14]
In the box you will probably find there's just a bulb and a switch, a fan to keep the bulb cool, and a bundle of optical fibers that go to the pool.
If you want to replace the remote fiber-optic system with low-voltage wires to LEDs, SR Smith has a conversion kit that looks easy to install: PT-6001 and PT-6002 Fiber to LED Conversion Kit.
Corroded Zinc Anode
This is what zinc looks like when it corrodes in a saline rich environment - oxides, hydroxides, carbonates, chlorides of zinc metal. It’s basically a big yucky mess of corrosion (that’s a highly technical term there, careful how you use it!). Basically it’s a chunk of zinc rotting away in water … and that’s about all it’s doing. It ain’t protecting squat. But it does have this almost mystical effect of reducing one’s bank account balance when installed.[15]
The corrosion seen on this anode is CHEMICAL corrosion, not galvanic corrosion. It would happen regardless of what the zinc is attached to or not attached at all. It’s not protecting anything, it’s simply chemically reacting with whatever is in the water and then shedding off layers of spent zinc into the water.
