    Automatic pool cover not opening

    Hello all - Hoping someone could give me some guidance or advice. We have an automatic pool cover on our in ground. It’s worked great the past two or three years but it now appears to be slipping. Is there an adjustment or something I’m missing? From what I can tell, this piece right here is...

    LED lights breaker keeps tripping

    Hello all, I am hoping someone could give me some troubleshooting advice. I went to go test our LEDs in our pool yesterday and it tripped the breaker (has worked flawlessly the prior two seasons). I read through a couple of threads on here and many mentioned that a light seal could go bad. So I...

    What to use to backfill around a steel wall vinyl liner inground pool?

    In my opinion, it was worth the cost to do clean 57s. It should settle less which was a key driver for why I went with it. I did all stone from the concrete collar to the bottom of the steel rim. Then the concrete guys come in and level everything off with rebar (this was the only part I didn’t...

    Solid skimmer lid?

    Depending on the material of your pool deck, this could work… I use them for my skimmer lids and they are great. Welcome to POURALID by Stetson Development, Inc.

    Frog legs anyone?

    58 frogs in one skimmer from one night lol…. These are some dumb frogs too since they refuse to use the two frog logs in the pool. Hope everyone has a great 4th!

    How long?

    Speaking from recent experience, I would say keep on keeping on… my slam took nearly 4 weeks. The first 1.5 weeks was on my rookie mistakes (not testing enough, brushing enough, etc.) I became obsessed and plowed through it. After 50 plus gallons of chlorine, my pool is clear and has passed the...

    3 week slam and so many questions still

    Sorry for so many questions, my water just hit over the 54 degrees mark so my SWG kicked on. Does turning it to 0% through the pentair app essentially turn it off?

    3 week slam and so many questions still

    I cannot completely rule this out, but in my novice opinion, it seems unlikely? The pressure on my filter sits around 5 PSI and the debris on the floor has been reduced by 99% since opening. Is there a way to rule this out completely? Maybe not worth exploring until I pick up the slack on the SLAM?

    Hoping this link works, as I feel the video shows the haze a little better.

    3 week slam and so many questions still

    Thought I would post a few pictures to show the deep end. You care barely see it, even in the close-up. Honestly, it does look better in person, however. I am going to try to post some night photos to see if anyone has any insight to the haze or bubbles I see at night. I did try various speeds...

    No need to be sorry! I appreciate the help for sure. Land of the terrible water for sure.

    3 week slam and so many questions still

    It was a DIY IG pool so no warranty, unfortunately. We finished out the pool late fall so by the time we detected the leak, it was getting cold and time to winterize. I did a pressure test of the lines, but that was prior to the pool deck being installed so my only guess is either the glue...

    3 week slam and so many questions still

    Thank you for the response. 1. I was losing significant water until I plugged it. I can hear the water loss as well through the concrete :( 2. Good call 3. Unfortunately no. Still in the high 40's from a water temp perspective. 4. I do see where you are referencing the MA. It appears to be...

    Hello everyone, I guess I am seeking validation/a therapy session, that I am still heading down the right path. I have been slamming since March 21st, and have seen great progress. However, for the life of me, I cannot get the deep end crystal clear. I can see the bottom, especially in the...
