How popular are 2" fittings. For some reason I can only find 1.5" fittings. I wonder if thats what I have and just measured wrong.

Hello I want to buy a pool devil pro. Here is the link to the product im talking about: http://www.amazon.com/Pooldevil-Automat ... pool+devil I've owned one of these before and it worked great! I hardly ever had to vacuum because it picked everything up before it fell to the bottom. I...

Hello. I have an In-law who just bought a new liner. she was gonna have a company come in and install it but heard that i knew how and said she would much rather pay me than someone else. i would do it for free but she wont let me. she wants to pay so im willing to accept that. only problem is i...

i don't know how accurate this method is but what i did (starting a week ago) i would stick my tape measure in the water and keep putting it in until the tip disappeared. i did this again 3 days later and there was a 20" improvement!! this really gave me hope because the whole time the pool has...

im going through the same thing. it will be 2 weeks for me this friday. i did find a trick in the "pool school" section and ive had great results so far. what you do is add a little DE to your sand filter. (go to pool school section under "how to". its labeled "adding DE to sand filter"). ive...

I have plenty of time! so if i read your message correctly each time i do a new "cycle" with the DE i add a little more and eventually it would have cleared most of the fine particles so the DE wont get clogged as fast thus the filter wont get clogged as fast!

hello! im in the process of clearing my pool. im about 6 inches away from seeing the bottom!!!! ive been adding DE to my filter to clear the pool faster. only problem is i cant add not a teaspoon more than 1/4 cup. if its just 1/4 cup the pool filters just fine if i add a little more the filter...

Let Em Swim!! when i was younger it would be 70 out and i was still in the pool. just surprise them and say "WHO WANTS TO GO SWIMMING"

u guys are good! i love it! thanks for the help you guys. i will be sure to replace my gauge!!

when the pump is off the psi reading is like 45. i guess that would indicate the gauge may be bad? the gauge is roughly 9 yrs old. when we bought our pool we were sold products that were to big for our pool.(WATSONS) im guessing so they can maximize they're profits!! my sizes are listed in my...

a "normal" reading on my guage is 50. (gauge max is 60) i would usually wait for it to get almost to 60. at that point the water pressure coming from the return was cut in half!! it would also take over 2 minutes back washing for the water to get clear. thanks for all your all's help!!!
