Thank you very much! Have a great day!

Good Afternoon, I just tested my water and need to add some acid, but I can't get the pool calculator website to come up. Is anyone else having the same problem?

No, don't have a salt water chlorine generator. I usually have to add muratic acid to get the TA down. We have really hard water here and with it being such a small pool, I usually have to add water several times over the summer. Lots of kids splashing it out, too! Thanks so much. I love...

I took the cover off and got the new sand filter set up. I had to set the filter aways from the pool so I hard plumbed halfway to the pool and then flex the rest of the way. It leaks in some places, which is probably a good thing with my test numbers. When I took the cover off and started the...

I used the adapters for a couple of years and I hated every minute of it. I have the same pool and I had a friend with a 18'. The 18' has the regular screw type inserts on the pool side. He had some extras so I cut the black tube thing out and put the others in. Now I can screw the plunger...

Should I test my fill water? It was well water.

Thanks. I was hoping someone would think that it was ok. I will look on craigs.

Hi everyone. I have a 15' metal frame Intex. This will be our 4th summer using this pool. When the kids were little, my husband dug out a 16' square in the back yard, we lined it, put landscaping timbers and several trips to the quarry for silica sand, we had a huge sandbox. Several years...
