    Can't clear up pool

    I have recently SLAMmed my pool and am having trouble clearing up my pool (from a cloudy white/blue). I replaced the sand in my filter about a month ago. When I turn my pump off, the pool becomes crystal clear with the debris on the floor. The pool becomes cloudy again when the pump turns back...

    12#s of Green-to-clean

    Thanks Jason. I've replaced about 40% of my water to get CYA down (now at 60). I'm in the SLAMming process now. Is there a specific product you recommend for the metals in the pool? The water has turned to a grassy green within a few hours after pouring in some bleach.

    12#s of Green-to-clean

    Thanks Jason. I'm using the K-2006. I ran out of Reagent 0871 so I've been using the simple K-1001 (the one I initially bought a few years ago) just for the chlorine reading. I've already ordered some more 0871. Amazon tells me that it'll be here on Thursday. Would the high reading be skewed if...

    Large Wrinkles in an inground vinyl liner - builder says "controlled shrink"

    Large Wrinkles in an inground vinyl liner - builder says "controlled shrink" Good afternoon folks, I had a vinyl liner installed 9 months ago and now I have large wrinkles everywhere in the shallow end. When I say large, I mean they raise about 2 - 3" from the floor and span 10+'. The guy who...

    Robot keeps getting stuck on the steps

    I ended up making this awful looking PVC barricade that goes over my steps. I haul the thing out everytime I clean now. It seems to work with that in place. I was past my warranty period by a few weeks and was told that the average repair cost was around $250. My PVC barricade was $20. Not a...

    Robot keeps getting stuck on the steps

    I have a Watertech Blue Pearl robot pool cleaner that constantly gets stuck on the steps. I will not reverse itself. I have made sure that entire power hose is in the water and even removed the pool ladder to make sure that the power cable will not get caught. When I reversed the handle (per the...
