    So I am in the process of slamming my pool and this is the first time my pool has ever been this bad. I normally just run it year round but during the winter months my pump crapped out so it hasn't been running. I replaced the pump with a New hayward VS pump and while slamming the pool my DE...

    Something better than a DE6020?

    Inusrance is paying to replace my pool filter, and I currently have the Hayward DE6020. I have seen the DE filters with with filter cartridge instead of the grid. Are they worth the extra money for the easier maintance? Or is there something else better that i am missing all together?

    Help with broken return jet

    Yeah the pool putty was used before. Question, do you know why I couldn't use one of those pvc pipe cutters that work from the inside and cut out this fitting and replace it that way?

    Help with broken return jet

    Hey, I have a return that is broken and leaking water. It is on a fiberglass pool and I was wondering if anyone had any advice on how I should go about fixing this. In the past some one temporarily fixed it with some putty but that is leaking again. Thanks for any input

    Help wiring an Autopiolot to a 2 speed pump

    yes my timer controls both my low and high speed, but if running the pump on low speed is enough for my SWG then I will just wire it so it only comes on with the low speed. Thanks for the quick reply.

    Autopilot Digital or Nano????

    Do you know if autopilot has a controller that can be controlled with an app or thru the internet? that would be a nice feature to have. I'm not seeing anything like that on their website.

    Autopilot Digital or Nano????

    I know the measurements look big but the volume of the pool is 15k gallons. I know the nano plus will do up to 28k gallons and the small digital will do a 35k gallon pool, but what else is there about the digital that makes it 500 bucks more than the nano and is it worth it?

    When to use low speed?

    Yeah the Ozone thing really ticked me off when I started reading this forum, all it seems to do is pump these annoying bubbles into my pool. As for vacuuming any advice for how long or how many times a week I should do that?
