Closed and opened shut off valve to strainer housing basket, no water in strainer, how do you know if shut off knob actually opened or just broke the knob?

if the basket fills with water once you open the strainer lid then the valve is opening properly. If you open the valve and the strainer lid but you see no water flowing in then you can believe that the valve is not opening and needs to be fixed or replaced.

Had a power outage yesterday now heater won't ignite. No error codes.

bo = 'Bypassed Operation' heater is now controlled via your automation system. Create a heat call, turn solar off if active. Heaters should be set to auto on.

How do I unlock my Hayward Xstream filter. I can not get the filter top off

Same problem, brand new filter... I'm 190 lb guy who works out 6 days a week, I can't open this filter for the life of me. If I knew it would be so hard to open I'd have opted for a less expensive sand filter. Cartridge are supposed to keep the water clearer but if you can't open the filter to clean it without spraining a wrist or having a heart attack (or both) what good is it? Beyond mad, I'm thinking of just biting the bullet next spring and buying a filter that actually opens. Even the brand new Hayward chlorinator didn't work properly this past summer, i,thought they were supposed to be good products, dealing with their customer service is pointless.

How do I fix "Filter VSP Communication Error" on my Aqua Pod

the VSP error is a code from the pump and not the controller or control system. the only way to clear this is to turn the breaker for the pump off for about 30 seconds to allow the electronics to reset.

Pool manual hayward DE 4800

https://www.hayward-pool.com/pdf/manuals/ProGrid-DExx20.pdf The best I could find was the manual for the DE4820. Other than the slight body differences, the 2 are not much different. Most of the parts are identical.

I have a Hayward Super Pool pump for my inground pool. Was running the pump, heard a noise, by the time I got over to the pump to check it it shut off. It has been off for over 2 hours. It is not hot

Get another brand. Hayward is junk. I had the same exact thing happen. Of course warranty is only one year. I paid out of pocket to replace the motor. Guess what happened 2 years later?

Hayward cartridge filter

If it's a hairline crack just patch from the outside. Use an epoxy glue. I've done the same with copper fittings. Works like a charm.
