AquaStar Pipeline VS Pump

The AquaStar Pipeline VS pump line-up has some very nice features. It is AqauStars first generation of VS pumps and it was designed to complement their Pipeline Filter. If you purchase the Pipeline Pump and Pipeline filter together as a combo AquaStar will give you a 3-year warranty for both!




Here are some of the features of the Pipeline Pump:
•  App capability Google & Apple
•  Connect to Pentair automation via the PLCM
•  Permanent magnet motor (PMM) drive system
•  Two sizes, variable speed 1.5 HP and 3 HP
•  Four programmable speeds from 800 to 3400 RPM
•  Noise reduction vibration dampening rubber insert
•  RS485 communication port
•  Automation capability, programmable start and stop times
•  Integrated 2.5" and 2" (socket) pump union connections
•  Ergonomic lid handles with quick-release quarter-turn 4-point locking lid
•  High-capacity self-aligning HDPE ultra-durable basket
•  High-efficiency volute design, patent pendingPart #PLP300S - 3 HP, Variable Speed, Smart

Although there is room for improvement this 1st generation VS pump has some very nice features. I like the overall design of the pump and the High-efficiency volute design will allow for greater flow and velocity. 

In my opinion, the primary application of this pump would be for simple equipment pads without automation. To be used as a stand-alone VS pump with the app control. Since AquaStar will give you a 3-year warranty if you purchase both their pump and filter it might be a smart idea to get both.

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
