    Pool Liner - 20 versus 27 mil....Merilin Aqua Wave Tile / Caribbean Quartz Floor....

    Thank you for the info, Joshil - What is what I suspected. My wife I picked the blue Trinidad /Jamaica Floor, which will look great in our pool. It comes in a 20 or a 27, and went ahead and went with the 27.

    Pool Liner - 20 versus 27 mil....Merilin Aqua Wave Tile / Caribbean Quartz Floor....

    I knew I was Pool Stored when...

    It's hard to believe I have been a TFP member now, going on my 8th year. I have always been a DIY homeowner, but as a new pool owner, pool care was new to me. So, before I found TFP and learned to SLAM, yes, I to was "Pool Stored". Lol. The first year, I think I spent over $1000 easily on...

    Salt Water Pool Question - Salt Evaporation...

    Thank you all for the feedback and info. It has been a very wet Summer here and I think between the pump outs I have had to do, and extreme heat and evaporation, the level has gone down too much. Also, I should have kept a closer eye on the level each week - Between travel and on call for work...

    Should I get a robot?

    The Dolphin T45 works well and does a fairly thorough job : https://maytronicsus.com/product/t45/ The unit works will out of the box. Just drop it in and turn it on. The App is nice and you can "Joystick" over and manually pick up debris. Sounds like a lot of great choices out there.
