So we had another spring storm here in North Texas this past Monday night and I woke up Tuesday morning to a beautiful tan colored pool :) What's the best way to get this baby back under control? I have never had this much silt / dirt in my pool. I just cleaned the cartridge filter, brushed down...

To chime in here...we are in Dallas and our fiberglass pool's ice is about 2" thick now but the pumps are still doing their best to move water. My concern is so much water is locked up in the ice that my level is really low and I can't add more water since our water lines are frozen. So...when...

I have a Hayward VSP (SP3200VSP) that has been running great since we built 5 yrs ago. Just this summer I have noticed that when priming the pump after cleaning the filter, the strainer pot doesn't fill all the way up to the clear lid...but it used to. Right now the water is even with the top...

So we have been fiberglass pool owners for just over 5 yrs now and have done manual vacuuming since day one. I never really minded vacuuming as it was a little quiet time for me but recently the number of leaves in the bottom was getting out of hand. I started doing some research on here (thanks...

Okay cool...thanks for the 2 hr confirmation. It did a great job but missed a couple of spots. Round two was much better. Love this thing already!

Just received my Warrior SE from Marina Pool and I love it! First question...during my first use it stopped on the bottom, blinking light stopped, after about two hours. The control panel was still glowing like it was ON but the bot wouldn’t move. I thought the cycle was to be 3-hours long. I...

Forgive me if this has already been asked or answered...but...could the E-10 be used in a fiberglass pool? We have a smaller 14x30 free form pool.

Does this look like Mustard Algae as well? I just opened the pool about two weeks ago. FC 5.5 as of today's test. Guessing SLAM is the next thing I need to do? - - - Updated - - - Does this look like Mustard Algae as well? I just opened the pool about two weeks ago. FC 5.5 as of today's...

Your issue sounds almost identical to mine. All summer the water has been great, but then we traveled for a couple of weeks and I wasn't able to keep up with the pool (fiberglass and SWG) as I usually do. I started noticing what looked like rust-colored 'stains' on the vertical surfaces in a few...

You're going to love it. We had our fiberglass pool installed last January and it's been soooo easy to maintain! We too have two deck jets but we rarely use them except for accent before a pool party.

Just sent you a PM

So I am seeing the same thing I think...my last 3 salt tests were 3600, 3200 and 4000 today. So, wondering how that salt number can go up like that...or...do I need to factor in the +/- accuracy and these readings aren't too out of whack. I am using the K-1766 kit as well.
