    Deck build. Above below or even with pool coping/top rail

    Can you share any long term experience with these modutiles? I wonder how they hold up in the heat and sun exposure. Also I'm curious how easy dirt accumulates underneath and if it can be easily cleaned.

    Pool is losing about 1" of water every 5 days

    A leaking valve would be visible? Do a leak test, but from what you describe a leak is very likely. That's about what I was loosing. Suspect is around the skimmer

    Stenner installation - plumbing question

    I plan my Stenner pump installation including the removal of the inline chlorinator. As you can see from the photo, after leaving the filter, the pipe is routed doing that extra arch. The tee fitting is about to go where the chlorinator sits now. Is there a reason why this extra arch was...

Their 2.5 Gallon 10.5% chlorine refill is $7.45. Will buy from them for now. The only problem is the jugs aren't easy...

    Easiest way to DIY heat outdoor shower?

    I'm using a simple sun heated shower connected to a garden hose. You can get them in different sizes. More then enough to get a decent warm shower before and after the pool. Water can even get hot when the sun hits the shower well for some time.

    Pool refill maintenance

    First of all, congratulations for the app developers making such a great tool! I was wondering if we could have a pool refill task under maintenance in the future app version?

    Newbie hello and two questions

    The cap is not sealing anymore, the pipe behind is filled with water. I sticked a screw driver into the pipe and could not feel any end. I have this extra pipe coming to the pump which I don't know what it is. Could that be the pipe going to mysterious outlet? Today when I brushed the pool, it...
