Has anyone used one? Pool installer says they work fine on oval and rectangular but they can't smooth them out on a round liner? Make any sense? http://www.familypoolfun.com/shop?category=169&size=28%27+-+Round&wall=54&search=Search http://www.familypoolfun.com/pdf/nl999931_dig_sheet.pdf

How are others controlling their 2 speed pumps if you want to split the time between low and high speed?

Are any AGP pumps full rated or are they all up rated?

First of all I wanted to thank all the helpful members here who so freely give of the information they have learned. I have been studying pumps and efficiency threads till I am blue in the face. Like many, I don't want to spend a penny more for electricity than I need to. I also don't want to...

For those of you who have done a semi inground install, does any drain tile or drainage precautions need to be taken?

This really stinks when I am on 2 weeks vacation but can't sleep like a normal person as I'm so used to being up till 8am working. Guess I might as well use the time productively. I have a few pump questions that I am sure the experts here can (probably already have) answered. I have searched...

Even though we are on our 3rd summer as pool owners I never got serious about it till we bought the 24 footer this year. Then, like everything I start studying I end up with lots of places saved in my favorites. One of them was Arthurspools. Seemed like they had everything and also a section...

Maybe I shouldn't even be considering a skid pack, if not please tell me. It seems they are cheaper than buying a pump and filter seperately, plus they have that nice base to combine them. I have been searching websites and it seems all of them (looking at cartridge setups) are 100sq' with...

Has anyone figured exactly how many GPM the Intex plunger valves and large hoses will flow. I can't take anymore of this swapping and cleaning filters every 2 days.

First I know it is a given that the intex pumps aren't worth much but the 2500gph (yea right, sure it is) puts out a pretty decent flow when the filter is clean. Here's the problem. For 6 weeks the pool stayed very clear and very little on the bottom, think I used the vacuum 3 times that first...

Trying to get all my ducks in a row before making the plunge on a 27-30' pool. Is one skimmer and one return really enough to effectively move the water in the pool? Is there something the should be done to draw water off the bottom?

On the Pool School here and various other sites the DE filter is always listed as 3-5 micron, cartridge filters are usually between 5-15 and then sand coming in even higher particle size. Since these numbers seem fairly consistent no matter where you look, just where did these results come from...

black, blue, clear and two tone. Is there a best color to actually keep the water warmer? I am leaning towards a clear cover since we then could see the pool lit up with the lights at night. what considerations are the knowledgable members here using to pick their solar covers?

Trying to get all my ducks in a row before moving from our intex to a "real" 27-30' pool. All the local pool dealers with the exception of one are specing a 1 1/2 hp pump. Now I am not trying to get any brand wars going since there seems to be some hayward dislike here, just using them since...

We are new pool owners, on our 3rd summer. Starting to think about getting serious from the intex with a semi inground install of a 27-30 pool. I am trying to do all the research I can in my (like most of us) very limited spare time. From what I think I have learned a cartridge filter will...

Well after a month and a half of the pool installer breaking appointments to level the ground for our 24' intex ultra frame pool I took up a GREAT friends offer to help me do it ourselves. We've had it up for 3 weeks now and like it much more than the smaller 18' version we had the last 2...
