I have a Hayward HD100 natural gas heater. Purchased last summer. Makes a strange noise after ingniting. The video is not mine, but is the exact same noise. Any thoughts? It seems to be getting louder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weQesHObmaU Thanks.

Actually just got one yesterday. We really like it! Easy to set up and very comfortable. It fits two adults and two fairly large kids pretty well. Looks nice as well. I have no clue about the safety on your deck.

Thanks!

Thanks. Is this a pretty easy thing to do? Is there a possibility I could totally screw up my pool? Although I open and close my pool myself, I would rate myself somewhat below average in the "handy-man" category.

I'm assuming "overlap" is exactly what it sound like, the liner overlaps the pool and the rails hold it in place, if so, yes, it overlaps.

It is above ground. (FYI, I have NO idea where I got "UG" from!). Fixed my sig.

I've noticed over the last couple years that my vinyl liner has a big airpocket right above the water line. It started small but is now 2/3 around the pool. Under the water level, the liner there are creases in the liner or the liner is bunched up. Is this normal? I mentioned it to the...

I converted from Baquacil last (best thing I ever did). My question is about free chlorine. PH=7.5 TA=150 Cya=80 CH 110 The number after the date is an early evening check, the next number is the amt of increase in chlorine I expect based on the amt of bleach added and then the post bleach...

Okay, so now I'm confused. 3 pm today tested the FC and CC again. I have a chlorine tab dispenser and thought I should start it. The results came back FC=2 and CC=1.5. We were in the pool for a bit between this morning's CC and and the 3 pm reading. I understand the FC will drop a little...

OCLT : Last evening FC=14, 6 AM this morning FC=13, CC=<0.5 12:30 pm. FC=4.5 and CC=zero! Water looks great. I have to leave town for a few days so will change the sand when I get back. Will stop posting now. The advice here has been great! :party:

Things continue to go good. Water is looking great. Most recent at 5 pm today. (shocked last night, didn't do a OCLT because I was out of reagent). FC=2 CC=0.4 pH=7.2 TA=170 CH=160 CA=negative. I'll do an OCLT tonight. I guess if I pass that, the CC stays <0.5 and the water is still...

OCLT: Last evening after shocking FC=16 CC=1.0 5:30 AM. FC=14.5 CC=1.5 (did not shock) 12 Noon. TC=5 CC=1.0 Getting there! Will continue to shock after sun away from pool. Water looking great. Will get sand and CYA ready.

11:30 AM. FC=4.5 CC=2.0 Water still looks great. Shocked to 15. Will take kids to movies to keep em' cool.

Sorry about starting a new thread. (At first I though I posted it wrong). Thanks for the advice. :-D
