Dolphin Sigma btw.

I just took a closer look at my Dolphin. It has seemed slow lately. I found that inside the side covers was full of leaves. Also under the treads the wheels were covered with almost mossy stuff; probably "mulched" leaves. I took the top cover off and blasted water down the sides of the cover...

The SWG box has been working fine for over 10 years. And it’s in the same location, so no change there. And yes, it has been bloody hot here outside of Philadelphia for the past few weeks. I will hope electric supply issue is resolved and that solves It.

Just spent a few hours going through things. The first thing I noticed was a rather dirty switch on the display board. Some brown gunk. I cleaned that off as best as I could with a q-tip and alcohol. Then put some Deoxit (electrical contact cleaner) on the pads that are the obvious switch...

Thanks mknauss. I see several new items and places to check.

I just planted a tree in the front yard and noticed our soil is quite clayey. The patio was done by landscapers, they seemed good but perhaps the base layer the pavers...

Hmm, hope this works. There is one pic standing outside the pool looking at the corner with the steps. Then three pics standing inside the pool with close ups of the coping separating from the pool.. Sorry first time posting pics here.

Our pool is probably 30-50 years old. We redid it around 2008. Yes, we had all the troubles and confusions with the pool company. My favorite was, as they were plastering it, I asked, "When do you add the color?" We had paid a good bit more for some kind of quartz/colored surface. They looked...
