    Pool Math app suggestion

    When you’re logging test results in pool math I’d love to see an option to just enter the sample size and number of drops and let pool math, well, you know… do the pool math and figure out the result. What I’m envisioning is that when I do a chlorine test, for example, I could select a 25mm...

    New Intex 32x16x52 build with deck (lots of pictures)

    From what I read, it’s the prep work that makes the difference. I pressure washed the deck before I applied it and also used a brush to apply it, since that is supposed to work it into the wood more than just rolling or spraying.

    New Intex 32x16x52 build with deck (lots of pictures)

    I got the Cabot at Lowes and there is a little sample booklet near the cans of stain that show a variety of sample colors. However, they just tint it like paint and they can actually match any color, like you would with paint. The grey I used was the ‘official’ Cabot ”Seacoast Grey”, but the...

    New Intex 32x16x52 build with deck (lots of pictures)

    Thanks:) I keep calling it paint, but what I used is the Cabot stain and sealer.

    New Intex 32x16x52 build with deck (lots of pictures)

    So I know this is an old thread, but I finally (after two years) got around to painting the deck. It was a *lot* of work, but I think it came out pretty well… Hopefully the water will be warm enough for swimming in a couple of weeks:)

    Pentair Warrior SE troubleshooting

    Well, just to follow up on this, I tried to call Marina a couple of times, but I just got their voicemail, so I decided to try Pentair directly. Pentair set up a warranty claim for me and assigned the work order to a local pool place, who canceled the work order the next day stating that they...

    Pentair Warrior SE troubleshooting

    I got a Pentair Warrior from Marina last July and unfortunately today I discovered that it no longer appears to be working. When I try to start it everything lights up and looks normal on the controller, but I get no lights on the robot itself, nor does it start to move. I tried...

    Luck with Solar Cover Warranty Claim?

    I went through this with a cheap cover I purchased at Home Depot that started failing after only about 8 or 9 months. I think I paid like $60 for the cover and when I called the company for a warranty replacement they asked for a few pictures of the damage and a copy of the receipt and they...

    Pump/Motor help

    Well, Lowes missed their Tuesday delivery date, but the pump finally arrived today and I got it installed. One advantage of using the same pump is that I didn’t have to change the plumbing at all. I cut the output pipe and then unscrewed it from the top of the pump and then repaired it with a...
