    Summer Rains.....

    I live in Orlando and it rains quite a lot lately. For some reason my Pool does not keep CYA, it always lowers somehow actually so i guess thats good? so we have been adding one 3 inch clorox trichlor puck a week which seems to have been doing the trick. Next thing you know its a war. pool goes...

    In desperate need of weir door

    Good news, aquapower is in! we usually run our pump at about 1.6rpm for 6 hours then 2.4 for 6 hours, I did not see the aqua power skimmer doors opening and closing like a weir door would. I increased RPM to 3.0 and they still were not performing as expected. they just stayed closed basically...

    Weir Doors

    My pool has no weir door because it fell of a few years back, I need to get a new one but do they all universally fit? i have no idea what size or how to buy it. I know its very bad i do not have it as junk is floating all over my pool(Bee's, dragon flies')

    Variable Speed pump schedule?

    We run it at 2,400 rpm for 4 hours and 1,400 for 6 hours. I feel like 1,400 is to slow, water is barely moving and the bugs that fall in the pool dont go down into the skimer, think i will increase to 2,600rpm and 1,800rpm

    Green Pool Passes OCLT

    I just got through an algae bloom, added 2 bags of powder power plus gradually to maintain a FC level of 22 with my 50 CYA. Pool was better after 12 hours but it was ultra cloudy and murky gray. just run the filter 24 hours for a day or two and it ought to clear it right up

    5 things you wish you'd done differently

    I would have gotten a deeper and bigger pool, Im 6,1 and 3-5 feet deep with 8k gallons is not good enough. I would have gone for like 25k gallons and 5-8ft. Also, Get a cartidge filter! those things really are good and quite easy to clean and work great
