As you may have figured I do have a leak. The guys stopped by this morning saying they were doing a SWG install nearby. They agree there is a leak and possibly two. They feel the main leak is behind the light, in the electrical conduit. They stated they did not remove or even tough the light...

I have been struggling the past 2-3 weeks to maintain my water level above the skimmers. Last fall we had the pool closed by the local Pool Store since they were installing a safety net. I am adding 2-3 inches of water 2-3 times a week so about 4-6 inches per week. I have a fairly large 55k...

Bump for any follow up

First off big thanks to everyone here for all the help. I am still preplexed by a low PSI reading but the detective work continues. Anywho I want to experiment with adding salt to my pool to get some of the benefits of salt water but not yet ready to go to the SWG side of life. So if a pool...

Denali, I have a pvc pipe that gets a screened cap, I cleaned this quite well, when I cleaned my carts but will take another look in the morning.

I have two skimmer boxes and two holes in each skimmer. The back holes have suction when the pumping is running. Then there are holes in front of each back hole that appear to go about 8-10 inches down into nothing, capped or just never opened?? There is a peice of hard plastic that rotates 360...

Well I took apart the pump today and removed just one tall piece of ornamental grass. Nothing else seemed to be in the way, I rechecked the filters, they look great, and checked the check valve right before the pump basket. When I turn the check valve off it leaks, but it did this last year as...

I opened the pool yesterday and right off the bat the filter gauge is only registering 2. I have good pull in both skimmers and no problems with returns, they are moving the surface as usual. So I was thinking the guage is bad and took the one of my neighbors, I get the exact same reading. So...

I am a bit surprised nobody has any comments on poles. Do you guys all just use the biogaurds with no problems. Maybe I just got a pole damaged in transit and it bent easily?? Nobody has purchased a higher end model?

Making it worse is not a chance I want to take. The stains are brown and we used a stain test kit last summer to comfirm it was copper. If the AA treatment is risky do I need to acid wash or can I prime and paint over the stains, I am considering changing the color from white to blue. Thanks...

Ok, I live in a wooded neighborhood and we often have bees and wasps stopping by the pool for a cocktail and appetizers. My neighbor suggested placing directional covers, eyelids to have the returning water brake the surface so it is not smooth for the visitors. My return lines have a...

I went through two poles last year. The First was simply not long enough and was given to my neighbor the second one bent under the weight of a bullfrog named jeremiah, but not so much a good friend of mine. I am getting ready to open and looking to get a real professional quality model. I...

I purchased a home and pool that featured a ionizer. This ionizer stained the pool and now I need to remove the stains if possible. This is my second year with the pool and was quite ashamed with it last year. I did the stain test year to confirm its was a copper stain. I have not opened the...
