Is there a tool that would work to help loosen a Waterways pump basket lid? It's 8" diameter and has "ears" on the sides, nothing on top. The tools I saw online all seemed to be for setups with something on top, or for smaller diameter lids. We had a crazy windstorm here yesterday and the pump...

We got a replacement pool a couple of years ago, and I continued to pour the bleach in front of the return like I had with the previous pool. I guess, however, the circulation area wasn't quite the same, and late last summer we noticed a patch on the liner floor that is bleached out and feels...

We use the typical open box of baking soda in the fridge each month to absorb odors, and then toss it. I found myself this morning wondering if it could be used in the pool to raise TA even though it's been open in the fridge for a month? Just idle curiosity, really, but what are your thoughts...

Hi, everyone, We've opened the pool, even though it's too cool to actually get into. We have a small in-and-out wood side deck next to our above-ground pool, and need to apply water sealant to the top. Husband would prefer to use the sprayer, because it's quicker and easier and he swears he...

I've been using the BBB method with our pool since it was installed in March, and haven't had any problems maintaining sparkling water! Now I'm just concerned about vacation time. We were planning on using the Chlorease SWG that we got free with our pool package, but I'm frankly scared to...

testie testie testie!

Well, the pool is working well as far as water balanced, etc, but this weekend we've had some fun trying to get the entry ladder and in-pool steps assembled. Well, the assembly is actually easy - up to the point where we put a wheelbarrow-full of sand in the in-pool steps and lift them into the...

Next year (or this year, if I get some magical bonus at work), we'd like to put a deck against our AG Pool. I like the look of the aluminum pre-fab decks (such as thepoolfactory's website, or the resin fan feck), but wasn't sure how sturdy and durable they were. Anyone have experience with them?

My new AG pool finally got electric going, so now the pump is running merrily! I took some initial tests to check source water with my new test kit (didn't bother with the FC/CC or CYA testing, since none of those have been added yet), and came up with: TC: less than .5 pH: 7.2 TA: 30 CH: 60...

Our new 18' round AG pool was installed on Monday, and last night while in the yard, I noticed a damp area of dirt underneath the return hose, against the pool. We just finished filling it yesterday, and are waiting for the electrical to be completed still, so the pump and filter haven't been...

Hi, everyone! We recently bought an AG Sharkline pool and am just waiting for it to be warm enough for installation. Well, pool place just called and it's ready for delivery then setup and now I'm :shock: . LOL! We're getting a SWG with it to try out - can always fall back to straight chlorine...
