    First time pool owner, southeast AL

    Welcome to TFP! Like you, I'm a new pool owner and I'm just a few hours northwest. Being a new pool owner / operator, I don't make a habit of dishing out advice because there are far more knowledgeable people around here than me. But, just this once, I'll make an exception. My advice? Don't...

    Aquabot Reva vs Hayward Sharkvac XL

    dmb, I know nothing of the Reva. I own a Hayward SharkVac XL, so I'll just comment on it. We had a 14' x 34' fiberglass pool installed in August of 2022. The pool builder used Hayward equipment, so the SharkVac was included in my start-up package. I've used this vac at least 2 times per week...

    New Pool Owner – Birmingham, AL

    Gaylesville, AL, huh? I grew up in Jacksonville, AL and my parents lived in Cedar Bluff for about 10 years before relocating to Gatlinburg, TN. I know your area well. I've spent many hours Crappie fishing on Weiss Lake. Beautiful area up there. And thank you for the kind comments.

    New Pool Owner – Birmingham, AL

    You people… You magnificent, beautiful people. We were handed the keys to our new pool yesterday and thankfully I have “you people” as my backup. When the notion of installing a pool first came up, I quickly found this site and absorbed every bit of information that my over-the-hill brain...
