    Remove old sealant?

    I'm thinking of resealing my pool pavers and pool coping. My question is will resealing over old sealant leave unsightly coverage on my pavers or should I strip away any old sealant first, then reseal, if possible?

    Powdery substance on pool bottom

    Hi, I have a 14 x 28 inground salt-water pool with heater. I've noticed a greyish powder in certain areas of the pool. I'm going to assume that this is dead algae. I sweep the powder towards the two round filter things in the deep end. I'm sorry, the name of this escapes me. I'm hoping the pool...

    Pool Light - Your opinion matters to me

    I need a new pool light system for my inground pool. I have never owned a pool before. I'm new to this. I haven't a clue as to what to buy. I need people's opinions on what pool lights they think are good for the money. How reliable you think they are or yours is. Is there a brand you recommend...

    LED Pool light fades out when turned on.

    Hi, I'm looking for opinions on whether or not the pics I've included lead you to believe that I have to replace my pool lighting system. I currently have an LED pool light and some time ago the light stoppped working. When I pulled out the lighting system to replace the bulb, I found this...see...

    LED Pool light fades out when turned on.

    After finally investigating my pool light, (no longer working) I discovered that my cord had been spliced a couple of times. Once near the led bulb and further down the cord. It looks like a Hayward light fixture. It's a 12v system. Maybe it was converted to an LED bulb. I believe it currently...

    Deep Heating circulation

    Hi, I appreciate your reply. While investigating further, I read that you are supposed to close off your regular return jets and then open the deep heating jets. Evidently it forces more water out the deep heating jets. Otherwise you're not getting enough pressure to flow through the deep...

    Deep Heating circulation

    Late is responding, but no water coming out of deep end. It comes out of shallow end great, but not the deep end. Dead. However, if I close and open the valve to my deep heat returns after about six times I can get water out of the deep end and shallow end return. But once the pool motor shuts...

    Must owners have a working pool light?

    . I am asking to see if a private pool owner must have a working pool light. Or, if broken, can he leave the light broken forever and never replace it? And can you swim at night without one? Maybe not safe, but does Florida law require the home owner to have an operating pool light when...

    Must owners have a working pool light?

    I thought I read somewhere that private-owned pools must have a working pool light if swimming at night Maybe it was insurance companies who require it.
