    chemicals for winter

    Hello, we just had our pool winterized about 2 weeks ago. I was expecting the company to add some chemicals but they didnt. Their reasoning was that it was too cold for any growth to happen so it would be a waste. So they just blew out the lines and removed and added plugs where needed. Is this...

    is irrigation water safe?

    Hey guys, I am trying to figure out a way to add some sort of auto fill option to my already completed pool. Our lovely builer obviously did not know that an autofill is a must when you have an infinity edge. The catch basin is about 18" deep (staying above wall suction lines) and is 17' long...

    Hello, we recently put in our inground pool. We are new to the pool world and didnt do much research until after the fact. (smart, I know) We have an infinity edge and we were never offered or told about an autofill option, which makes it very difficult to operate the infinity edge regularly...
