    Exposed Rebar

    Hi all. Gunite freeform pool built in 07. Has a cleaner system called PCC2000. Over time one of the water jets seemed to have worn away some of the plaster where there seems to be a black dot showing through. I called the builder (MDPOOLS) and sent many emails since 31 Aug 13 where a rep...

    120v/220v SWG COntroller and timer

    Jason, Thanks. Electricity around a pool is always worrisome. The MS10 panel is tied to a GFCI Outlet tied to its own 15A spst breaker. I think the rational there is that the AC plug as it is must be plugged into a GFCI outlet.. If it was hard wired in then the risk of plugging unplugging...

    120v/220v SWG COntroller and timer

    Hi All, I am looking to wire a 220v pentair pool pump to a Intermatic ET8000 timer. In the directions there are a number of options and I am looking to wire the ET8215 DPST Option set for SImultaneous throw. But as this is a SW Pool I also have a Mineral Springs MS10 controller. After...

    30ish pounds of beginnings and 6ish pounds of renewal

    The idea of paying too much for the mineral springs is one that resonates with me too. And I too have been "poolstored" (which in and of itself is a term new to me.. ) So here is the question of alternative medicine for the pool comes up thus-Ly: Is there a recipe equivalent for the 30ish...
