    Pool Vacuum and Pump Problem

    I was getting some air into the system from the relief valves where you put the garbage bag. I plugged them both with silicone glue and that issue will never be back as a result of those valves. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Hello all, Just a related problem! I just filled my pool on a sand base, and recessed 16" cement pavers under the legs of the ultraframe pool. Well, after about an hour when the pool is fully filled-two of the pavers broke in half. Now I have the same problem because the side of the pool is...
