Hi guys have a question, I currently have a dedicated variable speed pump to my pool & spa running through the Pentair filter to a Mastertemp 400K heater. My second pump is plumbed for the waterfall feature and has a diverter to act as an extra spa pump for the jets. The second waterfall pump...

Hi James, I was just going by what the app was telling me not sure if that's what is actually being pushed out. We originally had 4 sheer descents plumbed to this pump. Three were canceled because we ended up remodeling so now the pump is just pushing out the one 4 foot sheer descent. When...

That's what I figured, I was told to get a dedicated waterfall pump but I just do not want to replace my pump and get the same results. I'm willing to swap it if I can get more GPM

Hi guys, I received a few bids from local pool builders to build a pool at my parents home and did not come away feeling "good" about the pool estimates. I was thinking on going with the owner builder route since i recently remodeled my pool (plumbing, electrical, plaster, etc) and learned a...

My neighbor went with salt with his new pool build about 10 years back. He constantly has to seal his flagstone coping and stone veneer around his pool yearly so the salt will not damage it. He didn’t seal the stone veneer from the beginning and it started to disinegrate after a few years. I...
