My pump is only a few years old. The mounting bracket on the bottom of the pump rusted away and I cannot secure it to the base anymore. The pump runs as strong as it did on day 1. There has to be a way to secure it somehow. Anyone have any ideas? I cant be the first person this has happened to!

I did that one time, but it was a water bed.... not pretty!

They are all out of stock. Thanks for the suggestion!

I'm striking out everywhere I look for a 21x54 round pool beaded liner. Pool stores around me cant find any and I need to replace mine. Anyone have any suggestions where to find one?

The water is pretty clear. There are 2 very small patches on the bottom. Just swept it again. I can attach some pics if it helps.

Sorry I havent updated, but I had to work yesterday and I had my daughters do the testing and adding. Here's a rundown of the last 36 hours or so. My CC was always 0 so I'm not listing that each time. Thursday night: Had to brush the pool twice today. Had some pockets of algae on the bottom...

No problem. Adding 3-5 cups of bleach every couple hours. FC drops to 9 and I have to keep pushing it back over 10.

A little history first - I made a huge mistake when I opened this season. I vacuumed and backwashed many times over the first couple days instead of just vacumming to waste. I have absolutely no idea what I was thinking. Stupid. For the last couple weeks I've been having what looks like very...

The #9 plug shouldn't cost more than $3.00.
