    Polaris 380 Swivels

    There are 2 swivels. I have not replaced the backup valve but seems to be working normally. I have played around with the position of the floats and it seems to help.

    Problems with just finished pool

    We had our pool redone with diamond brite last week. After the tech came and put in chemicals the water started to clear. We were horrified by what we saw.. I sent photos to the pool contractor. He has not been out yet but says it's either marks from normal brushing or pool vacuum marks...
