I'm not sure what category this falls into.... but my husband has been using our swimming pool as a super-sized bathtub. Oh yeah really cute, at first, but its not just once in a while anymore. Its 3 times this week, so far, and I'm starting to worry. Not about him (should I?) but the pool...

I had my pool replastered in August 2010. It has been recommended that I keep my pH between 7.2 to 7.4 in order to avoid white-stuff in my liquidator. To do this, I'm checking my pH every other day and adding between 6 oz to 22 oz (if I missed a day) of acid. So I'm adding acid all the...

When I remodeled my pool last year I purchased all new equipment. Even though I'm in SoCal with the high electricity rates (.33 per kwh), I have no water features, no heater or solar (yet), no spa... so I got the dual speed 3/4 hp Whisperflo pump rather than the variable speed. Since my...

My DH installed the 8-gal Liquidator over the weekend, with the 3/8" upgrade from Bruce/Sal. We have a 2-speed pump that runs during the day for 2 hours on high then 6 hours on low. I tinkered with LQ after install and have been testing the water for the last couple days and its definitely...

I have a pool that has been remodeled with the pebble fina finish. It was completed last week, they fill it with water Friday, Saturday they added 12 gals of muriatic in the pool and left two suspended pumps to switch it around until their return on Monday when he added a bunch of soda ash to...

I've not yet installed the LQ, still waiting for the pool remodel to be done... but I wonder, what if I just install with the fittings and tubing that came with it? I've got the 8gal LQ. My pool is only 10k gal and the equipment bay is only about 10 feet from the pool. What can I expect if I...
