How long should an A-Frame Turbine Kit last? I live in Phoenix and have a pool service for a rental we have? A-Frame replaced two times in 6 months?

I depends how quickly you notice and remove debris and the type of debris. I live in Phoenix with a pebble tec pool and I have replaced the a-frame once, 2 years ago. If you have a lot of rocks falling in your pool it will cause an issue.

This is the first time in 5 yrs. Bearings wore out on the turbine and the center (blue) bushing wore enough to let the arms hit the sides.Pads and wings seem to last a year or two, depends on the type of pool texture.

i live in Creston, Ca. hot and very dusty on my 12 acres.. mine will last a year or more it runs 8hrs a day every day. check for rocks and items that are being picked up. I do run it fast for 4 hrs and half speed the rest.

I was told by a pool supply store that it should last about 18 months. If it fails prematurely then it is because flow is too high and is making all the parts move too fast.

I'm not an expert, but that certainly sounds excessive. My Hayward is about 6 years old and I just replaced mine for the first time. I probably waited too long, so I'd say 4, maybe 5, years. Mine generally runs about 6 hours a day in a 35,000 gal. pool.

It only lasted 1 summer in pool water, salt water may cause blockage in the access tube. For the price I'd buy it and let the kids use it as long as it lasts....

I'm on my second unit in 6 years. I'm afraid they don't last very long. I have somewhat hard water and use the unit about once or twice a day. I haven't been able to find anyone who has replacement parts or offers service. There's not a whole lot inside - just the tank and heating element but the only option I've found is to replace it. Wish they lasted longer.

I've used mine about 5X, always put it away when finished & it's still in good shape. If you have young kids that'll use it 5x/week - all summer, it'll likely need to be replaced after 1 year.

Basically, I don't know your exact hot tub model, but I can tell you that I put one into our Hot Springs Sovereign, 1991 model that we've had since new, and all we did was reuse the same tube and in-tube backflow preventer. The most time consumed was to put in a plug-in 110V box onto which we plugged in a lamp timer to plug the ozone generator into, so that it would not run continuously. It is set to run twice a night at 1-hour intervals. The instructions give the unit a much shorter lifespan if it runs continuously. It has run like a charm over a year now... === === = === JLH

I use mine almost every weekend for over a year now. No problems. I agree with Marc and try to contact the company.

I would call intex. They have supplied me with parts for my pool. Actually your unit is warranted for 2 years. Need to email them photo of receipt

Not sure about the warranty but I imagine it is probably 1 year. Mine is doing fine nearing the end of a second winter in Phoenix. I imagine the AZ sun will take its toll, but I hope to get a few more years out of it. I use it from Nov to early March in the Valley of the Sun (it does get col in the desert on winter nights.

I'm very happy & satisfied with Hangkai 2 cycle boat engine. I guess It's manufactured by (Generic) a well known Company for Generators & other equipment here in USA... As far as 12 miles a hour -- it's a stretch..Depends on the weight of your boat, occupants and gear, --- In very still waters -- I would bet it will exceed 7 mph easily... How about this for thought: Engine will run on full Throttle for like 2-3 hours on 1 tank of fuel & you will be very far from home.... For the Money it's a great value vs, prices of other boat engines... Like you, I was hesitant about purchase, turned out to be a great fun & investment.

Ours hs only been in use6 months but no problems , friend has had one over 7 years with no issues . One in a rental would have to depend on the renters .

The mesh should be fine. The metal frame would probably rust. I believe that it should last at least 3 years. If you immerse and rise in fresh water after each use it could last longer.

AS5 lasts a really long time, i have never had issues with it but i usually disassemble my hardware often so i end up changing it every 2 to 3 months, but the stuff can last years but people recommend you change it every year or so

When I initally bought my "big" setup, I read that you should replace them once a year or max 1000 gallons. I replaced mine at the one year mark. If I were you though, I would order directly from propur. The customer service beats the other retailers. And by the way, im skeptical that these filters actually filter out flouride. Do your research

A reliable place is any REI store or Performance Bicycle store. But still have a repair kit and inflator. I carry a compress co2 inflator to save space and weight.

I had to replace the spare parts on mine after about 6 months of very heavy use. It's also good to have a spare parts kit on hand just in case anything happens. Not fun to be stranded without a functioning pump! Loved this pump. It served me well for a year of heavy use and is still going strong.
