    Sump pump help

    I bought it... had it shipped.. unfortunately the float hangs over a good 1" ... Seems crooked to market this to fit in a 7" hole, but it would realistically barely fit in an 8" one :(

    Sump pump help

    Good afternoon folks... So my water table is very high. I need a sump pit at the end of my pool that fills up regularly. I have used the pumps that have the attached floating piece. Well my sump pit shaft is pretty narrow and that thing routinely gets caught up in the wiring, etc and doesnt...

    Pool cleaner gummy cord?

    Lots of discussions lol, unfortunately no real fixes... so the cord is already gritty and gummy... Short of replacing it does anyone know how to actually clean it? Its just insanely sticky and gummy... Still cleans fine, but its less than ideal :)

    Pool cleaner gummy cord?

    So My pool cleaner has developed a very gummy film on the outside of the cord. Its a maytronics... Its been gradually getting worse... I presume its the chlorine breaking down the rubber, but is there any way to clean this off? its incredibly frustrating. Thank you much :)

    Drop in salt water chlorinator.

    edit - removed previous issue.. it was resolved.. when the electrician came to test what might be wrong (free i might add) he swapped the stero and pump plugs which are identical connections.

    Weird gunk all year long...

    Yes, but it appears to be continual this year. It hasnt happened in the previous 2 years at all. Nothing like a tiki. No trees. I guess it could be sun screen etc. but it just seems like a lot... Yes, magic eraser and dish soap etc works fine to clean it. just strange its only happening...
