Well the good news is it is winter so I can take a couple days to get a new pump in. In ground pool. Currently has a 1hp Hayward. Looking for a basic single speed or dual speed pump. What's the best for durability, and do any vendors on the site have good pricing? Will ship to my shop...

Water change year, I will log the startup and post all my numbers in the interest of helping anyone with a similar pool and water here in the Southwest. Just changed the water. Cartridge filters require no back washing so no water is evacuated from the pool except by evaporation. Concentrations...

I was sweating bullets because this year is a water change year, and the temp went from 60 to 80 overnight and stayed there! Not supposed to drain pool over 70, I thought I was hosed this year.... But the weather said high of 68 today so I drained it last night!! Refilling now, time to get some...

As always, greatly appreciate this forum for saving my sanity and helping me with my pool in many ways. I need a new brush and pole and would like to give my business to any of the companies that sponsor or help with this forum, that are set up for internet sales and shipping. Might as well get...

Replaced the seal on the leaf basket and the seal on the pump basket. Capped off the O2 temporarily. Moved the valve a little to slow the suction at the skimmer. All of these things helped a little, but I still have very much air being pumped through the system, so much so that the cartridge...

Safe to use a stainless steel bristle brush on Pebbletech? Nylon bristle, aluminum brush falling apart again. Also does not work well on the algae that forms on the grout of the tile at the waterline. Thanks

How about a forum visible to members only, where the many helpful pool care professionals here could offer deals on common supplies and tools? Brushes, filters etc.

Time for a flush 'n' fill again! Every two years for those of us with cartridge filters and super hard tap water. Calcium hardness was off the charts. Auto Pilot measured the salt level at 4200!!! I guess that's the silver lining, we need just enough salt to make the chlorinator happy, then it...

Hi A Fellow Phoenix area member PM'd to me a website for inexpensive filter cartridges, but I accidentally deleted the PM and forgot the website!! Please help me by replying with your favorite source for cartridge filters. Thanks!

I need to rebuild my 6 port T valve.... Is this the best place for parts or is there a better Trouble Free Pool approved source?? Thanks http://www.infloorpoolparts.com/6-port- ... -6152.html

I bought a SWG from Josh here at TFP, looks like I'll get it today. I will be replacing another system, DIY project for the 4th. I can take pictures of the process and post them here if anyone will benefit, lemme know. Thanks

Pump sellers, please PM me, want to know if it is desirable to downsize to a 3/4hp from 1hp. Thanks

Hi Love my Quikchlor system. 2004. My builder no longer supports it with parts. Had a wire corrode off, replaced the banana plug. Been OK until recently, small leak at connection, now getting the clean cell / low salt error. I've heard of aftermarket replacement cells, please direct me to a good...

Hi folks, it's been forever since I posted, I guess that's good because my pool has been so awesome since I joined here! I was at one time extremely frustrated and fighting algae and a host of other problems, getting no help from the pool manufacturer's stores or independent pool stores, just...

First post. I am in Chandler AZ. 12,000 gallon in ground pebble tech, salt water, cartridge filters, ozone. 6 year old Shasta pool. Water is two years old, time to change. Problems since the first season with black algae. Tiling the water line helped, but currently have a couple small areas...
