I was gifted a set of used steps for my above ground pool. A couple of pieces need to be replaced but I’m having a hard time finding where to get replacement parts. From my research, I’m almost certain these steps are Main Access but that’s all I’ve determined so far. Does anyone have them and...

Our Hayward salt cell stopped working so we replaced with a generic. Money is tight so saving over $300 on the generic along with the great reviews seemed like the best route for us. Everything listed seems that it should be compatible with our Hayward SWG but the salt reading is showing 5300...

Just wanted to post some pics to show how much better the TFP method is over the pool stores. This is my step-daughter's pool and she had been having a pool guy from a local pool store coming to try and open her "swamp". After almost a month her pool was still green. So I stepped in with my...

Helping my daughter with her inherited pool. In the SLAM process now. About to vacuum some of the algae that is visible in shallow end. Question is should I vacuum to waste when there is algae or can I vacuum on filter setting? Don't wanna lose too much of the bleach we've been adding all day...

I know it seems like a good thing that my FC is not dropping, but I'm just curious if this sounds right. My pool is in direct sunlight most of the day. I tested FC 3 days ago and it was 9 with CYA at 60. I turned the SWG off because I'm aiming for FC of 5. SWG has not been running for 3 days...

If anyone has been contemplating installing an AG pool on their own, here's a few pics to show you can do it! It has been time consuming but well worth the $3000 we saved on just the pool install alone. Purchased the 27' x 54" pool online, installed it and then my husband built the deck...

We opened our pool for the season last weekend, water was so clear!. Ran pump for a few days with message to clean the cell on SWG. Cleaned the cell which started the full production of chlorine and then the next day the water appeared to have a yellowish/greenish tint from a distance, pretty...

Just wondering if anyone could ease my mind on a few concerns I have about our new AGP, installed 4/26/14. We installed the pool ourselves and noticed a couple of things after the fact. There are 2 uprights that are slightly leaning in at the top. My husband has tried to adjust them but they...
