Hi again- I have a Vinyl lined inground pool approx 14'x28'x6' at the deepest spot. The liner was replaced about 4 years ago. I'm currently losing 1.5" inches per day, which I calculate out to approx 366 gallons per day. Seems like this should be obvious, but I can't find it.... Funny...

I need to change the bulb in my inground pool light fixture, as it stopped working. (It used to work, so I'm thinking it's just the bulb) I remember when the liner guy was here, he had it apart, and from what I recall, the center section was on a long cord that could be brought above the...

:cry: :cry: Recently, I sprung a leak and the pool got down below the skimmer level and ran dry for a while, maybe a whole day, or part, not sure. I figured I was in big trouble, but I pushed the button and it started up and pumped away. Whew I thought... However, now it is tripping the...

I have a Hayward pump with this leaking and bubbling problem: The pump has this motor attached: The pool is from around 2004, I've owned the house for about a year. These are the # on the motor: c48k2n143b3 sp-1607-z1-mbk As the picture shows it dribbles on the pad, and the basket is...

Hello noob here again.. I'm thinking that I need to backwash my sand filter. For how long should I run it in the backwash and rinse positions? I can see little things swirling in the sight glass..does it have to be 100% clear before switching to rinse or how exactly should I do this? My...
