Looking for some advice. I have an above ground oval 21 x 41 with a deep end. The pool came with the Hayward Xstream 150 Sq. Ft. Cartridge System with 1.5 HP Matrix Pump. Everything was working fine for the last 4 years up until the middle of last summer. For some reason the "easy lock...

OK, so I had to dismantle half of my pool to get the new mason's sand in, since it is not equipment accessable and there was no one willing to shovel 8 tons of sand into wheelbarrows and then over a 52 inch wall. I am finshing it is a living heck getting the pool wall back into place...

http://www.gladon.com/perfectpoolbottom.htm Has anyone researched this or used it? In theory, it sounds like it could really help maintain a smooth bottom, much moreso than something like the thin Gorilla/Elephant pad could. Seems awfully expensive though...

For anyone who has an above ground oval pool with a deep end Has anyone ever ordered a vinyl liner custom cut for an in-ground pool to go in their AGP? I had such major issues with my expandable overlap liner basically leaking everywhere, and I have to replace it now. I am having a hard...

I am looking for some expert advice here. The person who set up my pool did a terrible job on the pool floor. They made sure the walls were perfectly level, but they did not put enough dirt inside, did not remove all of the rocks, tried to bury all straps, even in deep end, but not well. The...

I have a little dilemma. This is my first year with an AGP, so I have never closed one before. Right now, the water is about 68 degrees, but if I leave the solar cover off it will probably cool down quickly. Here are my issues: 1) I have not run the filter for about 2 weeks, and had a...

From Pool School: "Many leaks that cause water loss are found at the equipment pad where you can see the water coming out of a connection ' if you can see the leak we can tell you how to stop it. If you can't see any drips around the filter system you can figure out if it is in the plumbing by...

Hi all! This question goes out to AGP Pool Owners who have deep ends or not so smooth floors. I have read up on the boards and saw tons of great stuff about the Pool Rover, so I bought one. I am underwhelmed with the performance, it is not picking up everything (I watch it go over a...

As I am getting set up, I am looking for opportunities to simplify my maintenance process. So - can anyone give me advice on how hard it is to set up an automatic timer for my pump? I have a dedicated circuit set up for my filter and pump, that has an outlet and a switch in a plastic box...

I read so many great things about the Pool Rover on this board, and had already decided I wanted the convenience of a robot that didnt need to connect to the pump and filter. I found a great deal on the Pool Rover (not the jr.) for about 345 including shipping. I have had the thing in use...

I have been having a heck of a time keeping chlorine levels up in my pool. I think part of the issue is it is just so big, but even wwhen I go above and beyond the pool calculator suggestions, the chlorine is nowhere to be found! Last night after dark I added 4 full 182oz jugs of 6% bleach...

I live in Las Vegas I just purchased a Asahi/Mighty Sun Midland Braceless Oval 21' x 41' with an expandable liner to 6 1/2 feet. My plan was to have a professional installer come and set the pool up, including leveling and digging etc. I have only been able to find one company that says...
