    Lumenyte Fiber Optic Lighting -- Repair Options?

    We currently have the pool drained and acid washed with a guy coming to patch/paint everything in the next couple days. While the water is out we're also getting the tile repaired and a few other things. However, we were also hoping to get some lights working as there are currently none which...

    Pool Repair Quote -- Is this reasonable?

    Thanks everyone. We asked for references and quickly received a bunch from the local area. After confirming with 6 of them, all were very fond of his work, several had worked with him for over 5 years. I believe this price is certainly extremely low for the amount of work being done but we're...

    Pool Repair Quote -- Is this reasonable?

    We understand that painting is considerably less ideal than other solutions, however given the time we plan on being here, even if we need to drain and repaint before selling, we are still a few thousand ahead. I was mostly concerned with the cost as other companies want 2k+ for the same work...

    Pool Repair Quote -- Is this reasonable?

    We have decided to get the pool reconditioned before next summer and figured this winter is the best time for it. We don't want to spend an exorbitant amount as we are only planning on owning this home for a few years before moving on and the investment of pebble tec and other costlier solutions...

    Low Suction & Pressure

    I don't believe it's a pump shaft seal leak. According to my research this generally would result in water pooling under the pump or getting into the motor housing, neither of which is happening.

    Low Suction & Pressure

    I have not tried running without the carts, I can certainly give that a shot a little later today. These valves are labeled as "neverlube" valves, are they still serviceable or would I need to replace the whole thing?

    Low Suction & Pressure

    No SWG. Here's where I'm at right now: [youtube:10rituxb]G4pH9oKjqy8[/youtube:10rituxb] 1. Ran water over all suction side connections to see if bubbles went away at any point -- no go. 2. Used smoke on a windless day to see if any was getting pulled in by any connections -- no go. 3. Replaced...

    Low Suction & Pressure

    I do not have a good test kit, I don't think; Unless these little strips you get from home depot are considered good ;) The pressure doesn't rise too fast, the filters were dirty in appearance but I only saw a 2-3 psi rise over when I last cleaned them. I honestly only cleaned them again...

    Low Suction & Pressure

    First off thanks in advance for any help with this issue as I am completely new to pool maintenance and ownership. With that said, I am also far from helpless and certainly know my way around the internet and a toolbox. Hopefully I can provide enough information here that someone can point me in...
