Our local pool stores (PaP, Leslie's) do not seem to carry much equipment for AGP's. Need a wide mouth 18-hole skimmer gasket for Hayward skimmer. Our first one came with the pool. Can I get a recommendation on where to order online? Thanks in advance!

😂 I'm glad you appreciated the humor in my post title! Linoleum is a great idea. Linoleum was originally manufactured for use on decking on military ships, before being used in residential homes 😉 Thanks for the recommendation!

Happy Spring to all my fellow pool owners! 🌺 We are taking advantage of the weather and replace our abg liner. Just spent a lot of time pulling Torpedo grass roots out of the woven ground pad. We treat the ground & perimeter, and will while changing liner. Looking for a recommendation for a...

Thanks to all for your help! We are still trying to figure out what the display/buttons and how the pump is currently set. It looks as if speed #2 is 1400 RPM. That being said, I found today during manual vacuuming that I don't have great pressure at 1400 RPM. I would like to increase it, but...

Hi TFP Family, We recently signed up for solar. The solar company looked at our pool pump and at their cost installed a variable speed pump to replace our single speed pump as the variable speed is more efficient. So now we have a Pentair Superflow VST, 2.2 THP. We don't know how to program the...

Welcome! Just wanted to let you know that TFP has completed a great thread of state by state lists of local places for the best prices on Chlorine. I have personally found it way cheaper to purchase chlorine locally, the prices online are at least 2x-3x more. Happy Swimming! Kelley

I will try those. The DE is not working, they just walk around it and I'm pretty sure they are snorting it at night 😂

Do you have Pinch A Penny in your area? Much to my surprise, I found PAP to have the best prices around. I'm paying $7.14 for 2.5 gallons of Sodium Hypochlorite 10%.

Thanks! Didn't mean to sound panicked, but I don't like bugs, lol. I will try that.

There are tiny ants running all over one section of the top ledge(rails?) since we opened. I can't tell if they are in the water, nor can I find the source. Can I just sprinkle some DE where I see them?

I have an updated list to my earlier post for Pinellas County Florida. These are all for Sodium Hypochlorite 10%, 1 gallon unless indicated otherwise. Lowes: Pool Essentials $7.78, HTH $5.98. Home Depot: Pool Essentials $8.98/gal or $35.98/4 gallons. Pinch A Penny: Suncoast Gold $9.49/2.5...

My leaf rake is the same design, they work great. Mine is getting worn as well, has a crack in the plastic around the frame. Not sure what the name of it is, but it has a black net with orange plastic & scoop around the frame. It also has a weight in the middle of the bottom of the net, which...

Pinellas County, Florida Walmart: Pool Essentials 10% Sodium Hypochlorite 2 gallons $17.12 Found this as Home Depot & Lowes were selling the same thing for a lot more about a month ago. See my updated reply as it looks like some of the prices at HD and Lowes have come down. Kelley Mason
