Ok thanks, I guess I will be getting wet then! Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

With tropical storm Andrea dumping tons of rain, is there anything wrong with letting the pool overflow rather than going out in the pouring rain and draining some water out? Its our first year with this pool and i don't want to break anything. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

Just want to give Ken props on a great program. I've used it since opening my pool a couple weeks ago and it works great! I ran into a little SNAFU of my own making and he helped me solve the problem right away. You don't get service like that very much anymore. Thank you! Sent from my...

Hello all! Just wanted to say hi. My wife and I are buying our first house, closing Feb 1st, and it has a24ft round above ground pool. I've been lurking on this site for a while and have learned a ton of info! I can't wait for spring so can put all of this to good use and have a blast in our...
