    Feedback on Waterway Pump

    Can't speak for that pump but the one I use is identical to the Hayward power Flo matrix and I've had no troubles. Also got it for that same price at poolsupplies.com

    Does anyone know how durable Radiant Metric Round Pools are?

    Re: Does anyone know how durable Radiant Metric Round Pools Did you check out their brochure? http://radiantpools.com/images/uploads/ ... Bro_10.pdf Seems like a really well built pool but I think many don't own one because of the cost. I like that they have a very nice warranty but I doubt...

    You Know Your Pool Is Clean When...pic

    He has been on the floatie several times without any trouble, but I was on it all those times. This time he slipped and got pretty wet, the floatie did not survive! But I got a good picture out of it and the floatie can be replaced easily. :goodjob:

    Your cat gets on the pool float just to drink water from the pool because it tastes better than what he has in his bowl!

    We just purchased a new intex pool

    I leave my pool up year round too, just winterize it like a real pool. Going on 4-5 years now, waiting for this pool to bite the dust because a 12x24 is on my want list. I might even find a way to bury it 4' too. Just have to cut some trees and take the roots out of the ground first. Very...

    Intex and Bonding Question

    The only way I can think of bonding an Intex metal frame is this way. Grind the paint off of the bottom of one of the metal posts, attach a ground wire with a strong hose clamp and paint with rustoleum to prevent rust. Attach ground wire where the pool pump is bonded by a ground stake. Not...

    Testing for CYA - different results for different methods

    Re: Testing for CYA - different results for different method I'm just wondering if it's really feasible to keep a test kit in the fridge?

    An alternative to vacuuming?

    An auto vacuum that doesn't run with your pool equipment sounds like what you need. Pro...Most work very well, almost no intervention needed. Con...they're kinda pricy but you get what you pay for.

    First Pool -- Very Frustrated

    Funny my own pool looks much the same way! Here is a pic I posted on FB yesterday to say "Happy Summer Y'all"! :cheers: Now trust me when I say this. When you do it the TFP, BBB, The Pool Calculator and TF-100 way your pool will look this way and you'll actually have time and $$$ for...

    illegal end cap switch

    Wow :shock: Now the government is trying to regulate how we run our pool pump! After seeing this thread I finally figured out what this is and what it really does, might be helpful for saving a bunch of $$$ too! http://www.tightwatt.com/benefits-of-pooltimers.html

    When to add chlorine.

    I add in the evening usually around sunset but wait until it gets near the minimum, otherwise I leave it alone. Hi neighbor :wave:

    wrinkles in Intex Ultra 24'x52" pool

    I have the same problem too, not too worried about it. Going on 4 years now through winter and all, I'm just waiting for it to bite the dust someday for an excuse to get a bigger pool. It does make vacuuming easier though even if it doesn't look perfect!
