    Timer Died!

    Unfortunately I have not been able to find the exact replacement. It's a GE 15087, 56922, 15207 Type timer. I did see some GE timers on Amazon like the 15163 and the 15164. Also Home Depot has the 15135. Which one of these will work?

    Pump gushing water out

    Just wanted to update this thread. I did have a pool guy (not from a pool store) come out and replaced my motor. It did cost me $375 but it had to be done. The day he replaced it, we had a heat advisory so I got a market umbrella to shade him and also hooked up an industrial fan for him! It's...

    Windmill Palm Trees by pool

    I had 3 Windmill Palms but lost 2 of them a few winters ago. They are supposed to be "Winter Hardy" but if temps are freezing for too long and they are not that tall, then the cold could kill it. I was told that the roots should not be a problem for my pool.
