Hello! We have a 15k gallon in ground pool with a Hayward sand filter. For the past couple of years it has been losing about 1/4 to 1/2 an inch of water a day. We are going to have someone come out and look at it but is there any troubleshooting we can do ourselves first? There are a couple of...

Hello! Haven’t posted in a long time, have been having great luck with our inground pool. I was wondering if anyone uses an automatic Liquid chlorine (we would use bleach in it) feeder like this: Hasa Pool The Liquidator, 8 Gallon, Standard I am intrigued but not sure how it works. Has anyone...

Hello! I opened my pool today and my pool filter is reading 0 psi pressure. It is a Hayward sand filter on a 20,000 gallon in ground vinyl pool. All jets are working at full pressure, it seems. skimmer has good suction, nothing else seems out of whack. Emptying skimmer and pump basket regularly...

I am finishing up a SLAM after doIng citric acid treatment for staining and it’s going very well, seems like it will be done in the next day or so. My question is what chlorine level is safe to swim in? Due to my 50 CYA I had to shock at 20 ppm so it is going to take some time for chlorine level...

I have a 30,000 gallon in ground chlorine pool with a Hayward sand filter. Water has been clear and no problem holding chlorine with pucks in feeder until this week (even after we had our hottest week ever in the Boston area last week). Last week was in the 90's, this week the 80's, but all of a...

First of all, to any and all who recommended the dolphin nautilus cc as an affordable robot vacuum - thank you!!!!! I absolutely love it and I can’t believe how easy it is and how well it works. My question is - on the power pack it has the symbols for Bluetooth and smartphone connection but...

I am on Day 7 or SLAM process, been vacuuming every day and brushing sides. Water is still cloudy. You can see bottom clearly in shallow end and blue but not sparkling, can almost see bottom in deep end but cloudy and a little teal colored. Here are chemistry results (I ordered the wrong kit so...

I am trying to get my pool nice and clean and needing to vacuum to waste due to the amount of leaves and sediment, if I dont the water comes right back into the pool filthy. 1. Is There potentially something wrong with my filter that it is not filtering the water when I vacuum or pretty normal...

Wasn’t sure which board to post this on... last year we ended up having to flocc our pool to get it to clear. My question is - can you use an automatic pool vacuum when vacuuming up the flocc or will it move too fast and not be precise enough? I am hoping to buy one soon and wondering if it can...

I am looking for something to clean the white stone edges of my pool. Last year we tried power washing and for a lot of effort it didn't do much. Is there a safe cleaner I can spray on and rinse off with minimal scrubbing/brushing? Of course also need to make sure if some gets in the pool it...

Ok just took the cover off and water is green but you can see the bottom in the shallow end. Here are the numbers: FC, TC and CC: 0 Bromine: 0 PH: 7 total alkalinity: 20 ppm CYA: 0 anything I need to do aside from SLAM? thanks!

Hi everyone, new to the board here. Last summer we bought an Intex Klearwater Salt System and tried to use it all summer without producing chlorine once. We got all the other levels good - pH, alkalinity, stabilizer, salt, etc. and no matter how long we ran the SWG it never produced any FC. We...
