Re: Decision between three options for oval above ground poo You might get more responses if you include links to each pool and their specs and pricing.

I 2nd the 2 stage pump option. I run mine 24 hours a day on low and it costs like $25 or less a month on electric. Personally I like my cartridge filter but thats just me.

Re: The pool has evaporated nearly completely. I would try to keep the liner from sagging in the first place. I use this one and love it. http://www.arcticbluecovers.com/product ... /236/ci/70

I did something similar last year. I had my sump pump in the pool to remove extra water after a big rain. It takes about an inch off an hour or so. I unplugged it when I went to bed because it was at about the perfect level but I did not remove pump from pool. Well once primed those pumps...

I have the same type problems. Pulled liner this spring, releveled ground, problem fixed right? Wrong. My ground has leveling issues, probably caused by rain and or the fact that we brought in 20 truck loads of dirt to build up our sloped yard. We packed it tight 2 years ago when we built...

Is that pool covered? Even in the Phoenix area I would assume you would need direct sun light for an outside pool to be comfortable. 80 degree water would feel much cooler in the shade than 80 degree water swimming in sun light.

I have a 18x33 pool with full deck and got this cover and loved it. They also can make it for partial decks http://www.arcticbluecovers.com/product ... /236/ci/70 It covers like a safety cover but also has a screen built in to filter water through.

I had mine hooked up with an extension cord for 2 years and my electrician was indifferent on me using it. I wanted deck lighting as well so I finally had him bury a dedicated outlet and mount it on the deck and he charged me $300.

I'm sure he is equally glad.

I dont know if it was right or wrong but I ran mine off of a 50 ft 12 gauge ext cord for 2 years with zero problems. I'm not saying it is right or wrong just that I did it with no problems. My electrician didn't seem to worried about it either.

Re: NEW METAL FRAME POOL WITH PINHOLE SIZE LEAK ON SIDE WALL Well I had a tree branch crash through my pool cover and make a quarter size hole in the bottom of the pool 2 winters ago. I patched the bottom and it still holds to this day. Patching under water is really easy.

What is this again? i can't seem to find that anywhere, or any info on it.

Some one needs to figure this out. I would pay a couple grand for one. Fiberglass or something light weight and strong. Modular, like 22 ft by 4 ft or something? Anybody heard of such a thing. I know companies install portable plexiglass ones for weddings and what not but I want one that i...

+1 I would like to see that as well.

Yeah I rarely use it so batteries doesn't mean much to me. If used daily then no it is not a good.
