    Sand in Pool

    That is a great idea. Thanks again for the advice. I will definately be doing that. For now though, I need to figure out this pump. I will go out tomorrow after work and turn it on again. I did notice though the first day I turned it on, it sounded like a stone rattling around inside but it...

    Sand in Pool

    I will have to try that next time. They did advice me to not backwash for a minimum of 1 week though.

    Sand in Pool

    How do you guys use stabilizer? I have an above ground and they always tell me to pour it slowly into the skimmer.

    Sand in Pool

    When I started vacuum, the pump started making a noise, kinda like when you slowly pour stabilizer in the skimmer you can hear it in the pump.

    Sand in Pool

    I started my pump and filter for the first time and it was throwing sand in the pool. It did this the first start up last year too and never again the remainder of the year. Anyways, as I was vaccuming, the pump started making a strange noise and now it won't start back up. Any ideas?

    Remote Thermostat

    I will have to look at the manual to see how to wire this up and where. Thanks for the info. That is exactly what I am looking for by the way. My thermostat is not digital. It is just a turn knob so I have to idea where to set it. That will have to be a trial and error thing I guess.

    Remote Thermostat

    I just hooked up a heater for our pool. The problem is, if I want to run the heater, I have to walk all the way around the pool to the far side of our deck to turn it on. I want to run something to the edge of the deck so I don't have to run all the way around, something a little more convenient.

    For those in the North, when do you open?

    I opened my 24' above ground yesterday. Not by choice though. The cover kept falling off over winter so the last time it did, I left it. Water temp is 50. With a few really warm days ahead, I hope to get the temp up to 60 and maybe turn the heater on then hahah.

    Hayward heater

    This is my first year I am running a heater. My question is, how do I run it? I have a 24' round pool with a H200 or H250 heater, not sure without going out to look at it. I normally run my pump on a timer. I know that the heater can have a melt down if there is no water circulating while...

    Universal Pressure Switch

    I bought a Hayward heater late last year, used. I had to replace the pressure switch on it. When I went to the pool place today, the guy sold me a universal switch. I asked him if I had to adjust it at all and he didn't really seem to know much about it. Can someone direct me as to what I...
