Got a call for a plumbing issue with this absolutely gorgeous pool and spa combo with a beautiful pebble finish in the pool and spa. Anyway, we started diagnosing the issue of no power coming from the returns. Well, we figured out that the guy who installed the valve actuators for the return lines, never installed it correctly and had it closing off the returns and only had the spa jets open. On top of that he also had both valve actuators wired into the panel incorrectly as well so they never functioned properly when you hit the button on the iS4 controller at the spa. We fixed the wiring and then got all the return eyes for the returns in the pool and spa so now the filter properly circulates the water around.

Day 3 of this job was getting the electrical moved and mounted up to a new mounting frame. Ran some new conduit and ran new 12/2 from the existing junction to the timer. Ran 2 separate 12/2 lines in accordance with the existing circuits, 240V for the timer/pump and 120V for the outlet and pool light. We also mounted and wired up the new Hayward AquaRite Salt Generator. Thus concluding our work this filtration system.

While the pool was filling we jumped back into getting some of the electrical figured out. Found that these 2 GFCI’s were bad. The one had actually some how touched wires and burned through the ground and hot wire leaving it only connected by the neutral. The other was just bad. As both of these were connected to the same breaker just on separate lines. While doing this we noticed that all the flower box lights were on, they have a loose connection we have to take care of. We fixed the timer on them for now. We got the “Pool Left Side” lights just about completed finished as we got the lights around the waterfall working again.
