Great video, unfortunately it seems all Thermoplastic filters develop leaks within a few years, Hayward is no different. Also seems to be more prevalent on systems with large 2 hp pumps, some systems with 3/4-1hp super pumps make it 10 years or more. Fiberglass is definitely better but with a much higher cost few people choose that option. We're moving from Hayward to Pentair because of so many quality control issues the past few years, hoping Pentair is a least a little better. We had several filters and multiports leak on brand new installs, even had a standpipe inside an S244T not glued on the bottom (all the sand wound up in the customers pool after the first time they backwashed). The list goes on, I believe Pentair is the only product still made in the US.

I'm using a RaspberryPi and software I developed to monitor and control my Pentair system /EasyTouch from a phone, PC, iPad. Spent probably about $120 in parts to make this happen. Not only it works great, but I have custom automation (macros) that can run circuits in sequence for a specific time. One button pool schedule change from Summer to Winter schedule, etc. Also capture telemetry to detect possible pump, IC, Mastertemp issues before/as they start.

That's cool. Does it provide two-way feedback? Like does it confirm that something's running at the time that it's on? Hooked into doing this but instead decided just to fix my board, I now use my old screenlogic system with the intended automation that pentair gives. I had to get a hot air workstation and replace the comm chip but it now works flawlessly again with two-way feedback. Your system would make for an excellent KZfaq video if someone's not already done it. I would watch it.

@SwimmingintheDeep
@SwimmingintheDeep Ай бұрын
Yes, if it were wired correctly, it would only be able to come on (and lights seen on the chlorinator itself) when your pump is on. In short, your transformer for your chlorinator in your box area should be wired to the same pump timer.... on the "out" side. That ensures no power goes to your chlorinator unless the pump is on. I am not sure if the way it is currently wired will damage the chlorinator, I think it would work...but not be the correct way. Your flow sensor is likely serving to protect it by not allowing the plates in the chlorinator to be actually "on."

Hey I'm sorry you found my explanation terrible. I understand your frustration because it took me a long time for it to click. I suggest you get some cardboard and work it out. On these bottom stairs my overall additive run and where it landed was not that important. You may notice that I also poured some additional concrete for where it landed. Local code made a dictate how long your run needs to be but there's also a range. If your distance out is very important in your project, I suggest measuring that distance. You may have to use a plumb line hanging off of your landing to determine your overall additive run. Now divide that by your run of 10.5 in" (or somewhere in the range of code) and that will help you determine how many stairs that you have. It may still be very helpful to use cardboard for you go to cutting of your expensive piece of wood. This technique will allow you to adjust your own per stair run for it to work out. Good luck. I'm not an expert at this but thought I could be helpful and thought my video could be helpful. I apologize if you found it frustrating.

​@renate19861958 That's true, the lights on your chlorinator should give a pretty good indication. You can also use some test strips that are made of paper to test the salt level. It's very common after the winter that your salt is very low because rain and draining your pool will naturally lower the level of salt. For my pool, I have to add about two to three bags of salt after the winter is over. Also the chlorinator will not read an accurate reading until the temperature of your pool gets well into the '60s. Therefore, if your pool is not in the upper '60s Fahrenheit, or higher, be careful not to add too much salt.

Here's another tip, I had a rim link on my riding mower that just kept happening over and over, to the point the tire was very deformed as it sat flat in the garage all winter or all week during the season. It was so deformed I'm not sure this rope trick would work. So I took the wheel off and put it in the oven at 200-250deg F until the tire became pliable and rebound to the rim on its own. Before inflating it I put undiluted Dawn dish liquid all around the bead. Since adding the Dawn it's never gone flat again. That stuff sticks and seals really well! We're now over a year with no flat tire! Anyway next time I have a flat on my rider I know how to fix it quick and easy thanks to your rope trick!

Loved your video. I have the 4 button Easy Touch system that just failed due to power problem caused by fried wire on one leg of my 220 near my meter. I know Pentair is very overpriced but flabbergasted on the cost of replacing just the antenna circuit board. I was considering the Screenlogic upgrade but balked at the crazy high price and wondered if I could supply my own wireless bridge when I found your video. Much appreciated. The Easy Touch panel has multiple power taps and I think I will seek out a wireless ethernet antenna system that can be powered directly from one of the aux relays. Great video and seems like Screenlogic would make more sense than wasting more $$$ on the existing Easy Touch remote system. It was good for 12 yrs but dead now.
