    Captain we have a leak!!

    Overnight test with Skimmer lines plugged and water level still dropped. Systematically ruling things out. I did notice some weak grout spots where the skimmer entry meats the tile. Going to let it keep dropping and see if it stops or keeps going below skimmers. Either way going to...

    Captain we have a leak!!

    I spent an hour on Sunday with dye and a syringe trying to find something leaking. No luck. I also inspected the entire pool surface several times over underwater with a good set of goggles on. Nothing apparent jumped out anywhere that I could visually see. I have 2” plugs arriving...

    Captain we have a leak!!

    No air at all in my pump on the suction side. The pool has two drains on the bottom fairly close together. One area that I am going to investigate is that I have a skimmer door that is sticking, might be a clue to a problem.

    Captain we have a leak!!

    I’m in the midst of troubleshooting a leak and figured I start a thread to get advice from everyone. 1. I first started to notice their might be a problem as I was seeing the salt level in my pool drop. I just converted to a SWG and this dropping level of salt tipped me off on their might be...

    Stenner pump on suction side?

    I don’t think that is the case, it is diluted down to 8% and its being injected in at the rate of an ounce an hour, it is no more acidic than the chlorine I was feeding into it for the past 9 years. There are many people that have systems like this and I got the idea from this thread...

    That is a yes, and why is it a No?

    Stenner pump on suction side?

    Greetings, Converted my pool to SWG a few weeks ago and have been working on an auto acid system to keep PH in check. I had a suction side saddle in place from removal of a Liquidator chlorine system and used that port to build a passive acid system. I used a acid proof adjustable valve...

    Landscaping ideas

    Greetings, Our home and pool are approaching 9 years old and I have had it with the ornamental grass that we had planted around the pool. Love the look, hate the maintenance that it has created around and in the pool, so I ripped them out. Now I have a large area on the backside of the...

    Done with Pentair LED’s?

    Those look like some quality lights, but at $2300 to replace all three I’m not sure I will go this route.
