    I Don't Want to Ruin a New Liner

    I actually did use Clorox salt at times. Most of the time the salt would dissolve within an hour and just did not think it would possibly stain the liner. I do love my SWG and have had it for 15 years with no complaints other than when the Turbo Cell starts to fail. I guess I will just stay...

    I Don't Want to Ruin a New Liner

    Zodiac T5 automatic pool cleaner

    I've have a mesh cover anchored in the concrete since July 1996, original cover and have loved it. When I replace it I will get a solid cover. If I don't open in early spring (March or April) the pollen that goes through the mesh and algae starts growing too. I have a friend who has a solid...

    What brand of SWG is the best?

    I have an aquarite jr. 20,000gal inground, but a friend is building a pool and wants to get the best system he can, his will be 35-40,000 gal inground.
