I went and bought a new sand filter without looking up what I should have really gotten. I bought a 100# filter. With my previous filter and now with this one, I keep getting fine silt on bottom of pool. I assume it is coming from filter, since while I vacuum and the pump is on high, i see it...

Bought a new sand filter and attached to the lateral end is a small clear tube with small filter on end. Does anyone know where this is supposed to go. Does it get buried into the rest of the sand or stay above the sand level. Direction do not even mention it.

I had read the threads on line sizing and head loss pressure and I just can not seem to wrap my head around it and loose myself in the material. Here is my thought, right now I have 1.5" suction and return PVC piping. When my pump is on high speed, I get a very fine slit in bottom of pool...

I have read the directions for the timer, thought I had it hooked up correctly, but obviously I don't. I am hoping someone has some insight on this. The terminals I have are L 1 X 2. So far, I have wires the black from the house to "L". "L & 1" are bridged together, but can be removed...

Right now, I have a 2HP Doughboy, single speed. I dont like how loud it is, how much electricity it is using and is close to needing a bunch of replacement parts. I am looking for a 2 speed, I assume this will save me electricity even if I run on low speed 24/7?? and as far as my filter goes...

Do anyone know if the Dolphin Pro cleaner can be used in an above ground pool? It states it is for an in-ground, but I am not sure why it can not be used for an above ground...... I found one on CL for $200 and thought that was too good a deal to pass up...

Found this today, had to share

I have read everything about bonding and have a real good grasp of what needs to be done, but.... (there is always a but) I have a Doughboy pump and it is enclosed 100% in a plastic housing. How do I bond that? It is already grounded via the normal electricity ( I know bond and ground are...

Just thought I would share my chlorine feeder:

I am going to be installing a pump for bleach injection and possibly a 2nd pump for MA injection. They would not be injecting at the same time, the MA only when needed. Where would be the best place for injection be? at the pump drain or in the pool return line? I just want to make sure the...

If CYA is such a huge problem by using these, why do they not make a puck without the stabilizer? Is this even possible? I liked my puck dispenser since I could set and ignore, but now after being on this site, it is a nice paper weight.

I have read a few of the post and still am not quite sure on the right answer. The 60 degrees number..... Does that mean do not cover until the water temp remains below 60 degess or the outside air temp remains below 60 degrees? Also, after reading and reading and reading on this forum, I am...
