I just found my original paperwork for the filter and pool. according to the paperwork, the filter is a sw144-t, but the sticker on the sand filter has 2 options with a box to be checked, they are SW164T, and SW166T.

Hi all, We have a 10 yr old Hayward sand filter. Its either a SW164T or a SW166T ( i cant tell which box is checked anymore). The time has come to replace the strainer housing just off the pump. I've been repairing cracks in it for about 4 yrs now, and the lid is held on with a ratchet strap because of broken tabs. I need to purchase the housing and lid but I cant find any part numbers and i really dont want to guess and order the wrong thing. Can someone help me out with a part # for the complete housing? My searching isn't turning up much info. Much appreciated, Thanks! Brokenrod

As it turns out, the circ. pump was locked solid with calcium. We ordered a new one, plugged it in to the ozone gen. and all is well! Had our first soak last night, and loved it! Even managed to get the women topless.....I think im gonna like this! Thanks for your help.

I have 110v at the ozone terminals, and the light terminals, but none at the circ. pump terminals. Your memory is correct about the control box- way expensive. Thanks!

Yes, I did check the output with a volt meter, and jumped the pump over to the light circuit ( which i know works), but still had no pump. The only fuse that i see is on the ozone generator box- which happens to be good. I am trying to get in touch with Hot springs for a definitive answer on wether or not the circ. pump should run constant. Thanks for your help.

Hi all. New member, first post. We have a Watkins Grandee G271099 that has been sitting for a few years ( 5yrs to be exact). I finally got around to opening it up and starting it and all is well except for the heater and/or circulator pump. Whenever I turn the heater on, the safety switch trips and i get the blinking red light on the panel. after some troubleshooting, i realized i have no power coming out of the board going to the circ pump. I jumped the pump leads over to ozone gen. and light, but still no pump ( tried a plastic mallet on the pump to free it up too). I'm pretty sure the pump is locked up and i need to purchase another one. My main question is- should the circulator pump run full time? I'm a little concerned about buying a pump and finding out that the circuit board is trashed too ( since i have no power coming out). I was thinking about disabling the ozone and getting power from that if the pump runs constant. Am I on the right track? Is this a feasable option? This is my first spa, and really would like to enjoy it. Thanks, Brokenrod....
