Question:

My Jandy Lite 2 natural gas above ground pool heater won't continuously heat despite the pilot staying lit.?

The preassure is fine and the filter cartridge is clean as is the skimmer and pump baskets. I can sometimes get it to fire up by turning it off and then on but it goes out shortly thereafter. Any ideas on what i can do? thanks!

Answer:

Warning: There are two different systems on the market, the new system is very easy to reset: 1. insert key turn on switch ad then off, no not start engine, 2. within 20 seconds press then reset button only once and you are done, if your light on your dash is solid blue yo system is in valet mode, the older models are reset in a different way, I have the new system.
Muriatic Acid People have asked what is a good way to reduce algae in the pond. We have heard that Muriatic acid works well but it does take close measuring and monitoring. We asked on KoiVet and Doc Conrad answered the following: “Muriatic acid is much too concentrated and dangerous to use to lower pH in a fish pond, unless you are dealing with a lake of over 30,000 gallons. You are likely to either drop the pH too far, or not wait long enough for it to mix, or kill some fish when the muriatic acid is being mixed in. Instead, use the very safe pH reduction technique of using white distilled vinegar. This will not hurt you, the fish will never get hurt when you mix it in, and your bacteria in the biological filter love the acetic acid in the vinegar as food to grow on. Suggest you test a quart of vinegar per 1000 gal., then adjust according to the result—if this much vinegar lowers pH below 8, use some baking soda to bring it back up to the preferred 7.8 to 8.3 range.
Most hose come in 50 foot sections. Then, they get put together to go anywhere from 100 to 1000 feet. On our engines we use crosslays which are 200 foot each, a front bumper trash lane which is 150 feet, and a second trash line which is 100 foot. Off of the back of the truck we have supply hose which is connected up to 1000 foot. We pull off what we need and disconnect it there. For ground ladders we have 10, 14, 24 and 35 foot ladders. Our aerial truck is 70 feet.
A typical fire hose is 50 feet. fire truck ladders vary, most of the smaller trucks carry 40 feet.
