The pool is completly ringed at the water line with 6''X6'' cerramic tiles. Many have seen better days and I would like to replace the worst of them. Does anyone know where I can get them? I'd like to match the color (aqua blue). Regular tile stores don't carry them. As usual any help would be...

Odd things seem to be happening. Start the pump (9:30am)and pressure goes to 14/15lbs and stays there. After awhile (12pm), now reads 25lbs; later (3pm) now 33lbs). I started with a clean filter (see my post"new products"). When I start the pump again; back to normal 15/14 and the cycle repeats...

No chems have been added in the last two days other than the 3 inch pucks in two skimmers. I regularly add 10 minutes of...

My inground pool has to skimmers each with two holes. one hole is always plugged and the other sends water to the filter. What are the plugged holes for? Also they are looking old and rotten, should I try and get them out and replce them? Also one skimmer seems to be dominate (pulls water alot...

I am back with the green monster! I have made all the right moves and tests and the water stays cloudy green. I have gone through my inheritence in the form of chemicals. The pool does not maintain chlorine over night. What am I missing? The pool is located in Connecticut, 50,000 gallons, yes...
