I was in Wally World tonight and the only CYA they had was A&H 'Saltwater Stabilizer'. Is this the same as 'Freshwater' CYA ? The label says 100.0% CYA. Thanks ..

I thought the board might like to see another success story. I have been a member since 07. Using this site I never had issues until this year when my cover sank. I had a real mess but the information here, 3 weeks of POP and $80 in chemicals - I'm swimming now. Thank you. The pics are from...

I hope I'm in the correct forum for this ... I went to Leslies to get a wall whale at lunch. (Saw they were on sale in another thread). This was my first trip so I asked Jonathan if they sold liquid chlorine. Jon and a buddy descended on me like wolves. It was the same conversation I've...

I have just discovered that there is something under the liner in the corner of the hopper. (The cleaner is hanging up on it.) I sent my son down to check it out. He says it is about 3" long and 2.5" high and has an edge on one side. :shock: :shock: It just about has to be something the...

My 'ThePoolCleaner' works well but doesn't reach the shallow end. Putting the skimmer at the deep end was poor planning on my part. Anyway, my brother-in-law plumber was over yesterday, and after a couple of Mike's Lemonades we decided we would add a suction line that I could move down the...

Does anyone know what this stuff floating on top is ? The picture actually highlights the stuff a little too much, it is actually kind of translucent. It has been appearing every day for a week. The skimmer gets it all in about 3 hours. Not causing a problem that I can see, just curious...

The weather is finally cooperating and I am grading around the pool preparing for concrete. The contractor I have been talking to said I should only have 1/4 inch slope from the edge of the pool to the outside edge of the concrete, no matter the width. I am getting 8' on two sides and 5' on...

I am preparing to pour the deck and I would like to install these over the returns : (not my buddy's hairy legs, the bright white thing) :wink: Both pool stores here are out of them, and I need them asap. I have tried searching but I'm not sure what they are called. I have been...

I loaded my sand filter (triton tr100, 450 lbs sand) for the first time last night, rinsed to waste and started filtering. The flow is good at high and low speed. I am concerned because the pressure gauge continues to read 0 even after 12 hours of operation ... There must be some pressure...

I finally got a day off Wednesday and had the last 10k gallons of water delivered and got the pump going. The 22k gallons already in the pool was quite green. I dumped in 4 gallons of wal-mart ultra while they were filling (all I had). I did a quick chlorine test yesterday and it still read 0...

Hi All, and thanks to everyone for this board and the valuable info. I am building a 20x40 IG liner pool with aluminum walls. Equipment: Pentair WFDS-6, Triton TR-100 side mount sand filter. (Not the filter I ordered, long story), 2 lumio lights, 2" plumbing, 1 skimmer, 2 returns. I thought I...
