    I have had my 15x25 ft oval above ground pool for 17 years. When I went to open it this year there was about 2 ft of water left in the pool. There were no visible signs of where the water possibly went. I have a small rust hole near the skimmer but high on the wall above and not where the...

    Skimmer repair went South!

    Thanks Minnesota Joel!!! One of my questions is should I fill the pool before the install of the new skimmer or should I leave it low its low... probably by 2 feet from the snow fall and broken skimmer etc this Winter. ree

    Skimmer repair went South!

    Hi from New England. After the winter we have had I was not surprised to find that my skimmer was broken (on my above ground 15x24 oval pool) and my water level down a little low. A fix I thought I could do myself. I didn't know what kind to buy so I thought it a good idea to take of the...

    Hi... living and learning

    Hi again... though yes my pool did become blue and stayed that way for about a month... I am dealing with some clouding due to rain and quite frankly I don't think the stabilizer is working anymore. Is stabilizer something that has to be put in regularly during the season or just in the...

    Hi again... my ph is at 7.2 Chlorine is at 2.4. It seems to be holding the chlorine but the green isn't going away before I shocked it this last time I went in and moved the water around and scrubbed the sides. Other than the filter I can't imagine whats up with the pool. How do I upload a...
