hopefully, after my third venture into this arena, i use the right terminology: problem: too much debris is falling to the bottom of my pool signs i'm ignoring the problem: i've tried running several skiming schedules (30 minutes at before normal schedule, 30 minutes after normal...

i just wanted to say that i've been following the tfp method for the last year and it has been flawless. these taylor kits are amazingly precise and coupled with the knowledge base and community here i'm enjoying a crystal clear, problem free, nearly effortless pool ownership. just wanted to...

i put a small patio around my pool. to build it i put down about 4" of RCA, tamped it down with a machine, then a layer of wet concrete to create a flat base, then laid the pavers. unfortunately, the area i projected i'd make the patio is slightly larger than the finished area. so most of the...

hey guys, so about 2 months ago i started to think my water level had been decreasing. it was minor enough that i chalked it up to evaporation, impossible as that sounded. but somewhere within the last month, the water level definitely got lower. and now i think the pool cover pump i had must...

so in the beginning of the season y'all helped me get my variable speed pump situated. *i disabled the main drains, drawing strictly from the skimmers. *i have a high speed setting that runs for 2 hours, strongly generating a circular flow of water around the perimeter of the pool *i have one...

so i had to wait a while to get the electrician in to open the pool. i had to wait even longer for the pb to actually open it. so about 2 weeks went by with the water not circulating. here are my logs from those days. i immediately SLAMed the pool and brushed all aspects every day. ph fc cya...

okay, so i asked this before, and i sounded like a crazy person. i figured i'd fuel the fire some more. i think i need 3 settings: 1. chlorinate the pool only, no heat pump. 2. chlorinate the pool while running the heat pump on low speed to slightly heat pool. 3. chlorinate the pool while...

a) 2" pipes, b) head loss around bends our pb indicated that he uses 2" pipes. now that the pipes are actually installed, i noticed that the output from the pump is a single 2" pipe that connects to a "T" of two 1.5" pipes. those 1.5" pipes feed 3 returns, 1 return from the left...

hello all, nice to meet you! been a long time lurker. this is my first post. i own nothing yet, so i lack a sig. i'm about to buy a pool and i wanted some feedback because my pb has been making some odd recommendations: concrete pool, 20'x40', ~25kgal. swg (3200ppm max) titanium heat pump...
