Does anyone have any suggestions for cool or interesting tile companies that may offer some thing other than starfish and mermaids? I have a...

    Leak under concrete deck - repair/cover up options

    Hey folks - I have a leak in my return under a concrete deck. I'm looking for advice on how to finish the job once the leak is repaired. Should I: 1) Just have them patch the concrete which will be a different color and may look weird? 2) Have them put some stone or something else over...

    Polaris 280 vs 3900 Sport

    Hey folks - I found a thread on this topic from 2008 and I'm wonder if anyone has any thoughts on the two models since then. In the older thread the consensus was that the 280 was nearly as good as the 3900 and maybe better since it has few parts to break and need replacement. I just had...

    Solar cover thickness and sellers

    Does anyone have any advice for the thickness on a solar cover? I need a cover that something in the 20’ x 44’ range to cover the entire pool in one piece and I’m wondering which thickness I should go for. Obviously the 16 mil thickness will be more durable, and last longer than the 12 mil...

    PVC valve fully open?

    Is this PVC valve fully open? The arrow on the top of the valve, and the (broken off) handles are not exactly in line with the flow direction of the pipe (first picture) The second picture shows another angle of the valve and shows it can’t rotate any further. The third photo shows a...

    Need valve direction advice

    Update from this morning. When the pump was running, I checked the pump filter basket and there was very little water in it. I removed the cover, filled the pump basket, replace the cover and turn the pump back on. The water in the basket immediately sucked out, and continued at the low...

    I’m not entirely sure if the pump was running or not for two out of the three photos. But I do know that the second full-size photo was taken when the pump was off. Not sure if that address is your check valve concerns or not. And to be honest with you I don’t even understand you check...
