Split Couplers for Your Swimming Pool Plumbing Leaks!

 MikeysQuickCoupler: 2-Piece Coupler that fits existing unions like the Pentair and Hayward Salt cells.  It goes on in a minute without cutting or replumbing. In the past when a nut cracks on a backwash valve, salt cell, and filter bulkhead you would need to cut it off and do extensive plumbing. The plumbing cost alone can range from $300-$500 just to replace a $15.00 part. 
These 2-piece split couplers are a game changer for the swimming pool industry. Find the right 2-piece split coupler from the list below (note new ones are being made) and do the repair in about 1 minute. No cutting or replumbing is required. 




To learn more and to order:

The Quick Couplers are made of very strong plastic and are molded here in the USA. Once you get one in your hands you will see for yourself that these are built to last. 

P&H SLT
This coupling replaces the cracked/broken couplings on either end of your Intellichlor or Hayward Salt Cells.  It also fits Waterway 2” Unions. This is also being used on Hot-Tub equipment. It does fit the Dura-jet pump. You can try it on other equipment as it seems to be the most Universal of the split-couplers. 

Do not use on the older Hayward Turbo-Cell 15   'GOLD LINE'  some have different threads. 
J-CTKR-2”
This will fit a 2" Jandy caretaker system.

P-BKWSH
No need to change the whole valve, take the broken nut off and mine will go right on. For a Pentair Backwash Valve and some Pentair filter Bulkhead unions. Fits the Newer Multi-Port Pentair valves also.

PRH-2”
Fits the Praher 2" ball valve coupling.

H-200 
This fits the Hayward -backwash/ slide valves as well as any other Hayward equipment that uses the Hayward H-200 like certain filters and other Hayward equipment.  

I would order one of each and carry them on my service truck. You never know when you will need one and you can always try one on a particular union to see if it fits. The P&H SLT seems to be the most universal of the split-couplers and may fit many unions commonly used in the pool and spa industry. Mike is also taking requests for more Quick Coupler designs and you can email or call him with suggestions.

Can I Use Clorox Bleach in my Pool?

Image
Regular Unscented Bleach I started doing pool service when I was 16 years old back in 1988. I took a break from the industry and did some Real Estate Investing and ran a small business for awhile. But I always loved working outdoors and so I decided to do pool service again. So I have about 15 years of practical experience in the field. My specialty has always been water chemistry as I was formally trained by an experts in the field. So I am well versed in most of the chemicals that are on the market today and I have used and tested a lot of different products. So when you hear those in the industry discourage and even slander anyone who uses bleach in their pool, you may think that it is not a product that you should use. In fact as you read this article you will find that using bleach and only bleach is a safe and smart choice. There is a lot of ignorance surrounding household bleach and the use of bleach in a swimming pool. Here is a video I made that goes in more detail on usin...

Mr. Pen Non-contact Voltage Meter - Don't Get Electrocuted!

Image
One of the biggest issues you will run into with anything connected to an AC power is if that device or equipment is receiving power. In the pool service industry, this often is the case when you find that a pool pump won’t turn on. Or if a pool timer doesn't on, is it receiving power? Also for repairs with so many breakers being unmarked, how do you know you turned off the right breaker. Bottom line, a non-contact detector like the Mr. Pen is an easy way to see if power is going to the equipment/device and the line is active. A non-contact voltage detector is just that. You don’t need to make contact with the line like with a Multimeter. Plus you don’t need to adjust any settings or knobs to get a voltage reading. Simply hold the Mr. Pen over a cord or wire whip and if there is AC power a red light will turn on and an audible beep will come out of the device. A very easy way to tell if power or a current is present.  To order: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092LFYTG5?&_encoding=UT...
