THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! We have not needed to brush for dirt or grime as our pool is usually so clean but this makes so much sense.

Awesome!!! Thank you! Do you guys know if its OK to swim with mustard algae and at MA shock level?

I am not sure what you mean by “what speed is your pump set to”.....it is only a one speed pump. It is a Hayward Super Pump and it just is on or off.

Hey Everyone!! I have to bring my chlorine levels up quite a bit to get rid of some mustard algae and I was wondering if there is a way to add the bleach through some kind of dispenser? We pour our bleach in soooooo slow (3-7 mins to empty a single jug) in front of the return jet in the deep...

Ok. Thank you. I have a spring style safety cover that would not really permit me to easily add the chlorine so I will leave it open and just reduce my pump run time. I generally leave my pump on 24 hours a day. We get so much debris from the neighbors huge pine tree and other trees as well as...

Good Morning! Last year I was not able to close my pool until October. I am up in Maine and we stop using our pool around the end of August. That means I have to treat my pool and keep it going for at least a month to a month and a half. Right now my pool is still 68°. Can I close it now? We...

I have backwashed multiple times and we even switched the valve to the main drain instead and it didn't make a difference. I think that I will try getting a new gauge tomorrow when the pool store opens. I'll also get some numbers. We did just increase CYA over the last couple weeks. We did it...

Hi Everyone! Our pump usually runs around 10-15 psi. Anything over that and we know we need to backwash/rinse, etc. Just the other day it started rising up to 20-25 psi and it is now hovering there. I unplugged it last night to let it calm down but we cannot figure out why it is so high. There...

The pool sat for four years prior to us opening in 2016. We thought the liner looked quite warn but we really are not sure. It just looks like it faded a lot in the last mobth or two. I will try and get some photos.

Hey everyone! I hope all is well. This is my second tear using TFP and I love it. This year we started noticing that out liner is turning quite whitish inmany spots. We did just by a kreepy krauly style auto vacuum but I don't think that woukd cause it. Coukd it have been from all the chlorine...

Ok, thank you!

Hi! We finally got an automatic vacuum! Yay! With all of this pollen and our neighbors pine tree, I am really enjoying watching this vacuum do all the work. I leave my pool pump on 24/7. I know that I don't have to but I prefer to. With that being said, is it OK to let the cleaner roam around...

We put our solar cover on for a few days and when we pulled it off, we had so much yellow pollen in the pool.

Figured it out! It was pulling air from the skimmer so I put the gizmo in and re-primed and back in business!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

PUMP NOT DRAWING WATER FROM MAIN DRAIN ONCE SKIMMER BASKET EMPTIED: I am trying to close up my pool tonight. Had the water draining with the valve on Main Drain and then all of a sudden, once the water disappeared from the only skimmer I have, it stopped pulling water. I've tried priming and...
