OK... the pool water is too high in my pool, so the skimmer door isn't functioning correctly. How do I lower the water? Do I need an external water pump, or can I just drain with one of the many levers I have? The main pool has one skimmer and two smaller floor drains The spa has two of the...

Hey guys, I have two niche less pool lights that require a special key to unscrew. I did order the key but its no special order for a few weeks I had my father in law who is an electrician check the switch and breakers and they both were OK. We opened the two boxes and one just had the...

Hey guys, does anyone know when I should replace the cell? The volts and amps seem to change frequently. Currently it shows cell: 17V 4.9A Power Level: 5A (whats this?)

I just purchased some Conditioner today (CYA) and it stated to... Splash 5lb pouch 1. Mix half of the amount required in a plastic bucket of warm water. Stir the mixture with a plastic or wooden utensil. 2. Remove the skimmer basket, set to maximum suction and slowly pour mixture...

Hey pool owners, I just received my Taylor K-2005 pool kit, and I am going on my 5th week of pool ownership. It is a saltwater fiberglass pool 6600 gallons. I had some brown algae looking stuff on the bottom two days ago. I brushed it and ran the filter for the last two days and its gone. I...
