Do those work in threaded ports? I always assumed they were for non-threaded.

I am quickly approaching winterization time. The plugs I have been using are getting old and brittle, several have started to crack. I'd like to replace the whole lot of them, and would prefer to find them online but am having trouble finding similiar ones. They are plastic, threaded, and fit...

I did just have the pump apart to replace the shaft seal and I snapped a picture of the impeller. Didn't think to look for a part number though. Don't know ignore you can tell anything from the pic but here it is. Imgur: The magic of the Internet - - - Updated - - - I don't remember exactly...

It feels significantly weaker than my previous pool and other pools I've been in. That plus my heater was giving me a low flow error code with a clean filter.

Clean PSI is 8. Currently at 10. I will work on getting some pics.

I have a cracked volute on my pool pump. The replacement part is $215 and the pump is pretty old, so at that price I am looking at new pumps instead. However, the more I read about sizing a pump and head and flow rates the more confused I get. I'm hoping someone here can help me. My current...

You and me both. We have had an especially hot and sunny streak of days. Up until yesterday, which was cool and overcast/rainy all day. And perhaps not coincidentally, my chlorine usage dropped dramatically yesterday. When I checked in the evening, FC was at 12 instead of the 8 I had been...

Ok, city and signature should be there now. Anything special to clean it with? I always rinse it out with pool water 3 or 4 times prior to collecting a sample for testing.

Yep, about 3 gallons. I've been adding 1 gallon in the morning before work. In the evening FC has been around 8 ppm, so another 2 gallons to bring it back up to 16. And no exaggeration at all, the water is clear and sparkly, it looks perfect.

So I am a long time TFP'er. I had an above ground 15,000 gallon pool for years and maintenance was a breeze. It consumed about 2ppm chlorine a day which I add via 12.5% liquid chlorine. Fast-forward to today and I have moved to a house with a 30,000 gallon in-ground vinyl pool. The pool...

After the 5 drops of R-0003 you are switching back to R-0871 to count the drops, correct? Not continuing to add R-0003?

Yeah I have a Sta-Rite sand filter, T-210WF. 2.18 ft^2 44 USGPM 20 USGPM/ft^2 50 PSIG 200 lbs Thanks!

Hi all. I've been a long time forum lurker and I am finally making my first post. I have an above ground 17x29 Splash Superpool that I inherited from my parents. It is about 15,000 gallons. However, the pump is shot and I need a new one. The old pump was a Sta-Rite 1.5 HP. Based on some...
