    Leaks Everywhere...

    Thanks for your reply. Although I can't see where the water is directly dripping from, it's right between the motor and the pump. If I were to just let it be and eventually get a new pump, the worst thing that will happen is that the pump will just stop turning on correct? Yes there is only...

    Leaks Everywhere...

    Hi guys, so I am a new pool owner and have noticed slight leaking before around my pool, but now it's becoming more prominent and not sure where to go from here... 1. There is a leak somewhere in my pump or motor, I know because there's water around it after a few hours of the pump on. I think...

    Can I swim if there's metal/copper in my pool water?

    I got a TF100 once I decided to stop going to the pool store. Aside from green hair (my family has dark brown/black hair), is there any dangers/precautions to swimming? Or should I wait on the sequestering agent?

    Can I swim if there's metal/copper in my pool water?

    Hey guys, pretty much done slamming my pool from a green algae mess. I am a new pool owner and was pool-stored for a few months. Last time I was in, they said I had copper in my pool (2.1 ppm at that time). I ignored this problem and finished the SLAM first. I have not done my own testing yet...

    Dolphin Pro - Debris from impeller and when removing from pool?

    Haha I swear it was only a little bit! ;) Not sure if it's heavy duty or not, but it is the cloth bag. The previous owner must have thrown away the two black clamps that go over the filter bag because I'm missing them, maybe that made a difference? Hosed down the inside and wheels this...

    Dolphin Pro - Debris from impeller and when removing from pool?

    Ran a used dolphin pro for the first time today while trying to clean up some dead algae and leaves after a SLAM. Some things I've noticed: 1. While the pool cleaner is cleaning, occasionally some small debris will simultaneously come out from the top impeller. 2. When removing the pool...

    In the process of slamming pool, now there's metal in my water???

    Hi! I have uploaded some pictures and have moved my SLAM process into this thread. If you want to check it out and give me your feedback I'd appreciate it!

    Getting My Pool Ready!

    Re: Getting my pool ready, raising pH first? Okay, all the CYA is gone. Raised TA to a target of 80. Will SLAM tonight. Here are some pictures of my pool also. On a side note, I am noticing a leak where my return is. You can see the wet platform in my pictures (the return is in the middle of...

    Getting My Pool Ready!

    Re: Getting my pool ready, raising pH first? Great thanks Richard! I read it can take a while for CYA readings to show up. Can I assume that I added the correct amount of stabilizer to raise my CYA to my goal of 30 and SLAM my pool tonight according to what I believe the CYA should be at?
