Looking for a reputable pool builder in central Arkansas! Thank you!

I'm currently looking at buying a house with an approximately 30+ year old pool. The liner is less than a year old. The pump was "rebuilt a few years ago". The pool is about 16 by 34 feet with a deep end/diving board (unsure on number of gallons). The water is a lovely shade of green. :) I took...

Hello! I am interested in buying a home with an in-ground pool. I don't have any details about the pool other than it is not saltwater and the size is approximately 20x40. Sorry! I'm hoping I can get a little help/direction here, though, as the bottom of the pool liner is covered in wrinkles. I...

For those of you that have north facing pools, do you feel you get enough sun on your pool? I am looking into buying a lot that faces south (the backyard faces north). Thanks!

I'm putting up a 14 foot Intex Prism Frame pool this year (instead of my usual Easy Set). I upgraded my pump to the Intex 2,500 gallon, so I also purchased hose converters. I also purchased the waterfall (one of the main reasons I wanted the Prism this year instead of the Easy set - haha), so I...

I just got our pool up and filled over the weekend and finished adding everything today. Here is where I currently stand: FC: 2 (Just added more bleach to bump this up to 6 for the day) pH: 7.2 TA: 50 CYA: 30 (estimating based on what I put in as I didn't realize I didn't have a CYA test -...

Does anyone know if there are any fountains that will work with the Easy Set? I have a small (12 x 30) Easy Set that was extremely warm with our recent 100 degree temps (thankfully it's cooled off now with some rain, but I'm sure there's more triple digits to come). I ordered a fountain from...

I have a small Intex Easy Set that I put up seasonally on a concrete patio. The past year, especially, I had a lot of mildew/mold growing on the ground cover under and around the pool. I've always used the Gorilla/Rhino pad type cloths. Is there something that would be better as far as...

I have a Rhino Pad underneath my pool as it is on a concrete pad. It's been up for less than a month and the pad is growing algae! How do I clean it? Do I need to take the whole thing down (it's small - 12 ft x 30 in) and clean everything? Please say no. :) I was going to hose it down to see if...

Test results: FC: 3 CC: 0.5 pH: Between 7.5 and 7.8 CYA: 50 or 60 TA: 80 The water is clear, but I am constantly having to brush up/vacuum "dirt", which I now suspect is dead algae, from the pool floor. I get everything "clean" and it's back the next day. It collects mostly in the seams of the...

I can't seem to find an answer to this one... How much should the frame on my Intex move? I have two older girls who "dive" and jump around in the pool the entire time they're in there and the frame is in constant motion; creaking and swaying. We've only had it up for a few weeks, maybe a month...

We had an outdoor outlet installed for our pool, however, it has been trouble since day one. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I turned on the pump this morning, then the saltwater generator an hour later, hoping to finally get these things running on their timers (I've been turning them...

I just filled my pool, put 160 pounds of salt in it and can't get the pump to work. I turned it on for the first time and it looked like it was working fine, except that water was leaking out of the cover of the basket. I removed everything (possibly in the wrong order, had a lot of pressure...

Hello! I'm so glad I've discovered this forum. :) I have never had a pool and have a ton of questions! I am looking into getting an above ground pool for my 3 daughters, ages 2, 11 and 12. I think I've settled on the 18 x 52 Ultra Frame by Intex. I am looking into getting a 20 x 20 concrete...
