    Acid washing filters?

    If you do use a filter cleaning solution and you have a Hayward DE filter with the fingers, I highly recommend using a 5gal bucket to dip it in. It fits perfect!

    Sacrificial Anodes

    Wanted to know if these work or are a gimmick? Been looking for skimmer screws due to rust and saw someone posted about 316 stainless but have had no luck finding them. Went to Fastenal and they can't find the exact same screw for the faceplate. So my next line of defense was a possible Anode...

    I am sure this is a pricing error on their part so doubt you will find anything else this cheap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New Aquabot JR $329.99! @ In The Swim

    Oh and I did call them first after looking it up online and seeing the online price was not correct. The first person I spoke with sent me to customer service after I told them the situation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Don't have the catalog in front of me at the moment (at work) but can post later. Not sure though if source code is connected to the individual or address but you sure could try it. I am sure there was more than one catalog with the price error. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Wanted to let others know that if you are looking for a robotic cleaner and get the In the Swim catalog, check for this. I got one for spring 2017 and spotted this cause I have been looking for one. Their website has a different price but when I called them, they honored the catalog price...

    Why won't this stuff Die?!

    Have been at SLAM levels for a week straight and saw some difference in algae but it seemed to adjust to the levels somehow and then came back. Have been very diligent with it, bleaching toys, removing steps, brushing twice a day but have had it about 5 years now if that makes a difference. What...

    Why won't this stuff Die?!

    I have passed mine numerous times with the mustard algae in there. Only time I see the chlorine drop at all is when using an algaecide that is killing it. I have tried the SLAM method with no dent in the algae whatsoever. It is very resistant to chlorine. Only time I have seen any difference at...
