Roger that. Thanks!

This may seem like a silly question, but... My CYA Mixing Bottle label is crooked. Instructions say to fill with pool water to bottom of label, then add R-0013 to top of label. Since the label is crooked, it's a question of where is bottom, and where is top? Either way, what I'd really like to...

"Nothing". Ugh, that's not giving me the warm and fuzzies. That sounds great in theory, but after 17 winters, actually even before that, I had anchors stuck, and I don't consider myself incompetent. When I say "stuck", I don't mean irretrievably. I'm referring to the ones that are difficult...

Hello all, hoping for some advise. I have a 38x18 + ell pool, recently replaced concrete patio with pavers. The pavers are installed on RCA, not a concrete base. Now that fall is here, I need to install my winter safety cover, which means cover anchors. I bought the 9" anchor in pipe from the...

Haven't gotten any further responses on this, so I thought I'd chime in on some other info I found here. In this post Plumbing Configurations it looks like tees are being used in numerous locations with the "branch" as the inlet. I know those are only diagrams, but I don't see any other way to...

Hey all. In-ground pool, replacing the 18 year old 1-1/2" flex pipe, and liner, wanting to use 2" schedule 40 PVC pipe all around. I have a few questions, hoping a pool pro might help me out. 1. Skimmers are Hayward SP10851OM. According to the drawings, there are two outlets, one (rear) is...

So my REAL question (which kind of got lost in my original post) is about the use of a TEE. One installer says to use one tee for each pair of eyeballs, centered between them, with the main return water line going into the branch (bottom) connection of the tee, and then feed out to the two...

Like this? Seems like that will create quite an increase in head, almost five-fold if my calculations are anywhere near correct.

Hopefully this works. 1st one... 2nd one...

I've got a question about plumbing that I have not been able to find a direct answer to. Short story long, we are re-doing our pool patio after 18 years. Original was concrete with paver bullnose coping. New will be pavers with bluestone coping. Pool is 18' x 38' rectangle with an 8' ell, steps...

Are you needing assistance, or offering? LOL.
