    Need help with choosing Loop Loc cover

    Hi guys, we've had a solid winter pool cover , the type held down with water bags, since we had our pool built in 2001. I'm tired of replacing leaking water bags and moving around the cover pump all winter. My boys are tired of removing the tons of leaves that accumulate on the pool cover...

    Bad Aquabot power supply?

    Hi all, first post, great site! I have an Aquabot turbo remote control robotic pool vacuum that has performed flawlessly for 6 years. When I try to run it now, with the black button on the power supply it will start momentarily. As soon as I let go of the button ( which should start a 7 hour...
