What is going on?

I can't give you any advice about the heater, I know less than nothing about them.

Is the pump making any noise at all? Making any attempt to run? Have you tried checking to make sure there's not gunk in the impeller? YOu should be able to get to the impeller by taking the front cover off the motor, but make sure the power is off and there's no way the motor can start while checking it, because you will lose fingers that way!

By "the round things", do you mean the return eyeballs? Mine were stiff this year too, just took some extra effort to get them to turn. Mine turn easier clockwise than they do counterclockwise...

Hi, it looks like they put the eyeballs in the wrong way. They are flat on the outside!! Could that be giving me my problems?? Do I have to empty the pool to get them in the right way??

I can't give you advice about the heater/pumping problem. But, I can tell you that you do not have to drain the pool to remove the eyeballs and put them in correctly. Unscrew them, turn them around and screw them back in. Someone will be along shortly to help you with your problem.

Thanks water mom.......shouldnt the eyeballs be rounded facing out into the pool?? They are flat..........I am so frustrated

[Watermom]

Yes, so you can aim them where you want them.
