So, we are not doing a pool anymore, I was curious what I could still use to test the water in our new hot tub? I have tried to find some info, but can't seem to find very much.

I would like to be able to do that, but I have already patched a few of the holes with the extra that was sent out to me. I just need something to cover the holes in the wall so that the new liner does not decide to pole through. I got 2 holes that are probably around 6 inches wide.

I appreciate the info, I found several going to be ordering this week. I have to do this because when I pulled my liner out of storage in infamous rats decided they needed to feast on it over the winter. Got to make sure I gorilla tape up the holes real good on each side so my new liner does not...

I am looking for an overlap liner for my 16x48 intex pool. I am only able to find a 52inch tall liner. Will this work. I am thinking no because it will not over lap much at all. Any help would be appreciative.

what about putting a cheap submersible pump in there? that way if it rains too much you can always turn on the pump and help keep water out. you can get a pretty cheap one at Harbor Freight.

i use smart plug as well. no problems here, i will say i love the pool light. have had it for 3 years and works each year it is plugged in to start the year

same problem here. you can only lead a horse to water, but you cant make him drink. my neighbor has a pool and just will not listen to anything. he dumps a gallon of liquid chlorine in his pool every sat morning and that is all he does.

we got a dynatrap at the end of last year. if my memory is correct we have not had a bite this year. seems to work pretty good. it stays on 24/7.

earlier this i have had to 2 slams. i saw a little green forming next to my ladder. that was the only spot. i immediately throwing in the liquid chlorine and brushing. i only had to do it for 2 days each time. lucky for me it was over the weekend. no problems since. i do try to keep my FC as...

i was curious about something. when you all have a pool party, what do you do about the chemicals in the pool. example would be do you all raise the chlorine level? i think there will be 2 or 3 younger teenagers and mostly adults. what is your recommendations?

have you checked out ebay? sometimes you can find just the hoses for a decent price

i just cheap outdoor rugs, they normally dont ever last til the next year, i think i pay like $20 or so each year.

here is what i did a couple of years ago, just plain 1/2" pvc, and a cheap showerhead and handheld.

i appreciate the info. need to do a test later today
