So last July we moved into our new house. We moved 10 houses down the street from our old house and doubled our lot size. We went from a 40x105 lot to a 77x179 lot. So we put the pool in late last year and closed it right away. Before diggining we were unaware that we had an almost 4' slope...

I just went and did a back wash and when I turned the pump back on, I discovered a really bad leak. I am worried with this weather and the tech said they cant come until Wednesday or Thursday. So I am worried that the water will turn. It is leaking from the line that goes between the pump...

Sorry for the caps on the title, but this is my first year of ownership, brand new pool. I just went outside and the pool sounds like it is burping. The pool runs fine for like 10 seconds then the skimmer sounds like it is sucking really hard like when you have a full sink and the water is...

Ok, I have read as much as I can, and found a post from 2009 relating to my situation. As so many others have posted here, I too am effected by peak hours of hydro consumption. In my area of Ontario Canada, my rates are as follows 7pm to 7am low peak 5.9 cents per kw/h 7am to 11am mid peak...

My friend just had his pool installed. They filled the water on Thursday and on Saturday the electrician came and wired it. Everything looked good water looked good so we added 8 bags of salt to his pool. It's 12500 gal inground vinyl liner. Full Hayward system cartridge filter, t15 cell...

Just out of curiosity how many people try to be efficient with their pools. In my area off peak is from 9pm to 7am, mid 7am until 12pm. High 12 to 5pm and mid 5pm to 9pm With that said here is what I am thinking. I have an 18,000 gal pool. I would like to run my pump from 9pm to 9am (12hrs)...

Ok quick question. I have an 18,000 gal inground pool. I have a t-15 Hayward cell and I keep my chlorine generator at 10%. That keeps me at 3.5pm with chlorine. My friend suggested that I turn the generator to 15% for a few hours after a heavy swim load to shock it. If I let the generator...

Ok, so I am learning more about my system every day. I have the hayward prologic system with the p4 remote. I am a little confused. The other day I went into my diagnostic menu and located the salinity option. It said 0000 press + to save. So I did and my reading went from 2900 to 0000. So...

As this is my first season with the new pool I am quickly learning how everything works. I have been testing my water 2 times a week at the local PS. They have computer testing that gives printout of all levels. I am ordering my own kit soon so I can test more regularly. But with all this...
