    longer Circupool power cord

    Before I start to install my swg, I found this thread about making the RJ power cord longer. Does this apply to all Circupool control modules? I purchased the Universal 25. https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/installing-a-longer-power-cord-in-a-circupool-rj.214050/

    Cracked hayward multiport repair?

    I believe I made the mistake of overtightening the return from my multiport to the pool. It leaks where it gets screwed into the multiport. Is there any way to repair short of replacing the multiport? Superglue, JB Weld or something that will work?

    Filter psi

    What is the “ideal” pressure for pool filter? I had a Hayward superpump last year and went with a Pentair vs pump this year to save some money. Last year pump was at around 10 psi. This year Pentair is at 4 obviously not at full throttle. Does it matter as long a water is being circulated?

    Which vs pump replacement recommendations

    Guess I’ll go with the superflo and worry about the connections when I open the pool in the spring. Gonna have to watch for any big sales on it though.
