    ABG Pool repairs after winter

    Your pool is fine. I agree with the others. It is also easy to replace skimmer. Just drain below the skimmer and remove screws holding it in place. Screw new skimmer in and connect plumbing.

    Draining Hayward Sand Filter

    I would drain the water from the sand filter then use a dolly to move to a new pad closer to the outlet. Before you start up the pump you need to fill up your filter with a hose to the sand level. From there you can fire up the pump and you will be good to go. The other option would be to use a...

    Weed/grass product suggestions and antifungal for under pool.
