I will try to post as many pictures as possible along the way but I might not show every mistake I make. I am an avid diyer and I'm not afraid to take chances and make mistakes. We will be installing a 14x28 vinyl liner pool with Tara silver falls liner, 42"polymer walls and gray trim and...

We are in the final stages of ordering our 14x28 rectangle pool from royal swimming pools. I need help deciding if I should go with white polymer steps or spend extra for gray. I had initially gone with gray but now I have changed the liner from sandstone to tara's new "silver falls". I think...

Some of you may remember I was battling with metals in my water, well over the course of a year or so with all the rain we receive here I think my pool is all rain water so all metals from the initial fill are gone! Thank you 54" of rain a year! I think it could still get slightly better but...

I need to change the bulb in my aqualuminator. Do I need to drain the pool below the light to do so?

I have owned my pool for a year and have never had to adjust PH, is this normal? It always reads 7.5. Im not complaining but I just thought this was something I would need to do on occasion.

I just went out to check the chlorine level in the pool and I stopped at 52 drops but the water in my tf100 was still dark pink. I have a swg but its set to off. It has been off for close to a month. Why is their more chlorine than last time I tested a few weeks ago?

My pool has never been clear since the moment I added any chemical to it. I have slammed for weeks at a time to no avail, I have passed OCLT but alas it is not meant to be. First off my pool is green but that is due to metals in the water I suspect as when I use a metal sequestrant the pool...

I added salt and hooked up my salt water chlorinator (aquatrol hp). I have it set on about the lowest setting for producing chlorine and my pool is at 12fc. My cya is 50, a bit low but i dont want to raise it as i fear that will cause less fc loss during the day and I'll have even higher fc...

Please help me, I filled my pool 3 weeks ago and as soon as we added chlorine (bleach) the pool turned green/yellowish and it has not dissipated. Some days i can see the pool floor quite clearly other days (like today) the water is very opaque. The pool looks like a greenish tub of bleach...

I am about to backfill my semi in ground pool. Am I supposed to remove those little landscaping stakes that hold the bottom rail in place? Our just leave them so the bottom rail can't move?

So I just filled up my new above ground pool yesterday and put my CYA in a strainer bag and hung it off the side rail in front of the return instead of putting it in the skimmer. This caused all the powder (28oz) to disperse throughout the pool quickly but it immediately made my pool very...

Somehow the wall moved while putting it up and now the return is behind and l an upright. Now I know the right thing to do is take it all down and redo it but my concern is that we have been literally waiting for months to have a few dry enough days that aligned with my hectic work schedule to...

We have been dodging rain storms for the last month, Now I have second guessed my liner choice so I am returning the one I have in favor of another. The new liner wont be here until beginning of next week. If I get an opening from the weather can I install everything except the liner knowing...
