My skimmer has two holes in the bottom. One that has the plumbing hooked up that goes to the pump. In that one I put a gizmo in it for the winter. The second hole is not used. For this hole, should I leave it unplugged to allow the water to drain out of it over the winter, or should I keep it...

Inground pool, buried radiant metric, last year I just used a bunch of empty milk bottles for the mesh cover, this year I am looking at water bags or blocks, any thoughts, I read where the bags don't last that long.

Last summer I buried a Radiant Metric GT pool, everything was done to specs for their inground install. I acted as the general contractor but the Radiant vendor did the actual pool install. I recently noticed sand and other debris getting in behind the liner around the skimmer. I excavated...

I live in Michigan and have a Radiant metric GT pool which is installed completely inground. My plan for closing it was to use a skimmer cover and not drop the water level at all, but I have not been able to find a cover that fits. According to Radiant I should drop the water level, just below...

So I've spent most of my summer fully burying a Radiant Metric pool, I am pretty happy with the results. I am going to wait till next year to do the decking around it. I have a few questions about closing it for the winter. 1. I live in Michigan, when should I close the pool. 2. I can't...

I am in the process of burying a Radiant Metric GT pool. I am sort of acting as the general contractor. The dealer is installing the pool, essentially setting it up in my hole, but I am doing everything else. Both the dealer and manufacturer are stating there are no special requirements for...

I am in the process of purchasing and burying a 24' round Radiant Metric GT Pool. They are giving me a 1 HP Hayward Super Pump. The ideal location for me for the pump would be about 35 feet away from the skimmer. Will that be ok?

I have a constant breeze that blows from west to east. Should I locate my skimmer on the east side of the pool? I was planning on putting it on the northwest area because it will be much easier to locate my equipment and get electrical there, but will that make my skimmer ineffective?

I am getting a quote for a buried Intrigue. It is our first pool so I am a novice. In my sub the pool can not be more than 12" hgiher than the grade. I don't want to spring for a built in so I am looking at burying the Intrigue. I am a little nervous about it, but the builder is telling me...
