Crystal Blue Pool Service, St. Croix, VI. The Betta SE Plus is an invaluable time saver, keeping the pool surface clean meaning less debris reaches the pool bottom. It does a great job on small medium leaves and find particles.

      @macferigo you can find all parts online. Download a manual so you know the part numbers. If you suspect the Impellar may be impeded by a rock or something. Unplug the pump and remove the four bolts and the motor will slide out as in the video. Remove the diffuser and inspect the Impellar & remove any debris. It could be the start capacitor as well. Be very careful with the capacitor as it contains enough power to kill. Research how to replace it before replacing it or seek professional help.

    We just replaced our filters, and cleaned the cell with 1/3 muriatic acid as usual but the Inspector Cell light is blinking. We ran the diagnostic and it says the cell is at 60% life. Everything else is looking good but seems this means it’s not producing chlorine. Although the diagnostic displayed 60% life used, this is our fourth year with the Cell. Any suggestions, please ?

      @@stxlocal535 Chlorine is reading low. IC-15 Pentair Intellichlor. Apparently it's been discontinued and 4 years is not highly unusual for a lifespan: not the best, not the worse. A month ago I didn't tighten the bottom filter bucket drain screw - I was trying not to strip it - and I think it had a very light leak, but it was enough to reduce the jet flow. The flow light NEVER turned red so it wasn't that bad, but perhaps that contributed to it burning out? or perhaps it's because I only cleaned it every 4-5 months instead of 3 months? Our flow, the jets, are great again but we may either try replacing the flow switch (seems pointless but not expensive) or suck it up and spend the +$1,200 on the IC40.

    • @stxlocal535
      @stxlocal535 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If salt level is good and pool is fairly balanced, but no chlorine is being produced. You can try raising salt level to 4000, use chlorine tablets to raise CHL to 3 ppm for a week to see if it continues producing on its own after the week. If cell is matched to pool size, then it may be time for a new cell. 4-5 years is typical life span for cell matched to pool gallons. Larger cell will last longer since it won’t have to work as hard.

    Wow! Did you read the instructions? Your readings are going to be way off! First you blanked the meter to air. The instructions clearly state you blank the photometer to 5 ml of pool water prior to adding any reagents. This alone will throw off all subsequent readings. Second you added DP3 to raw pool water. The directions are clear, it is to be added to the first tube used to measure free chlorine and then reread.

      Screen Blank Breaker on? Timer on? Correct Voltage at Timer Line & Load? If yes… turn breaker & timer off and check to see if Nano was wired correctly. Check to see if correct fuse installed and not blown (fuse & wiring is different for 110v or 220v. Check that jumper wire was installed correctly. If all is correct than it’s possible the board is bad. You can always call Autopilot to walk you through troubleshooting.

    • @stxlocal535

      My apologies my previous response was for someone else. If the salt system has power, then it seems you installed it correctly. If the pump isn’t coming on, that’s a separate issue. if they are wired to the same timer, make sure that the pump wiring is still connected to the timer properly. If your pump is a Intelliflo pump, check to make sure that the time is correct in the upper right hand corner and then press start on the pump at the bottom of the screen on the pump. It should say running schedule if you run your pump on manual, then pressing a number and then hitting start should start your pump.

    Wedging a wrench into the shaft to remove your impeller is a bad idea!!!

    • @stxlocal535
      @stxlocal535 ปีที่แล้ว

      No wedging required. On the AO Smith UST series motor, there is a 7/16 in nut on the end of the shaft used to stabilize the shaft, allowing you to remove the impeller. Accessing it is a careful procedure and you must stay away from or discharge the capacitor.

    • @Zeric1
      @Zeric1 ปีที่แล้ว

      The motor is designed for this, there are parallel flat sides on the shaft for a 7/16 wrench. It does require some trial and error to get the angle correct, but once it's on it works well. To remove the impeller I use a rubber strap wrench, better than what was shown in the video as it can go directly on the impeller with no damage.

      It’s hard to know without hearing the noise, but the fact that it stops leads me to believe it could be a rock or something stuck in the impeller. It could also be that the bearings are starting to go bad. I would check the impeller for damage or debris caught in it.

      I'm not sure how or why that advice got started. I've replaced several hundred seals working as a pool tech for the last 28 years, and have never been concerned about touching the ceramic. If it was an issue, you'd have to be equally careful to not touch the carbon ring that rides against the ceramic. I've never had a problem.

    • @stxlocal535
      @stxlocal535 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s in the seal manufacturer’s instructions. It states that the seal should remain packed until ready to be installed, have a clean work surface so no dirt or particles can get on it and not to touch the ceramic, so oils from your hand don’t get on the surface. They state that small particles and oils from your fingers can cause premature failure of the seal. I don’t recall stressing it in the video, but we hold the seal by the rubber only when applying lube.

      With pump off, If you are isolating the pump by closing the intake and return valves before opening pump lid to clean or replace basket, then no significant air should be in the pump/ system that would need to be cleared, but you can always bleed the any air just to be safe. Make sure to put all valves back in normal operating positions before restarting pump.

    so there is no fix for loud noise, the motor needs to be replaced ?

    • @stxlocal535
      @stxlocal535 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The loud noise means the bearings are bad. If there’s a shop near you that will replace the bearings that may be a cheaper fix. Just check price for bearings vs. motor replacement.

    Dan I’m trying to put up a video about a minute long on how you can grab the shaft if you don’t have the right tool like you did with a pair of giant channel locks I’m attempting to put that video up thank you for your video

    • @stxlocal535

      It’s recommended in the manual to use a 7/16 open ended wrench to steady the shaft for impeller removal. There are many parts easily damaged near the shaft, which may cause an electrical fire or motor failure.

    This was the only video that showed a clear angle of where the flat O ring went into the pump assembly. I was going nuts trying to find it. Thank you for doing it right!

    Where does the pipe with the red go? To the sewer?

    • @stxlocal535
      @stxlocal535 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      In the video the pipe with the red tape goes the main drain of the pool. We label our pipes with different colors.

    My neighbors filter is making this loud sound just like this. But they won’t fix it. It’s driving us crazy.

      It’s the pump motor! Sorry to hear that, hopefully it will die soon and they’ll have to replace it.

      Camera died on this shoot so I had to use previous footage to make it useable. Hope it was helpful to you.

    What’s the average price for a new motor/install?

    • @stxlocal535
      @stxlocal535 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on the price of the motor & seal. A single speed pump motor replacement with an easy swap usually runs around. $400, including seal and gaskets and 1 hour labor. However prices on pool products keep going up every month.
