    Fiberglass Discoloration (Faded & Chalky) - My Story

    I have the same issue. When the water is in it isn't really noticeable other than areas like the stairs. When I was opening it is drastically visible.

    How Clear is TFP Clear? Let's See (Pics Only Please).

    It's awesome seeing all these crystal clear pools. I opened my pool again myself and all was clear within a day after my robot ran his rounds. It's great knowing when I start my opening I know how to meet my levels based on pool experience. Thanks as always TFP.

    Cyclone Winterizing Blower - Looking for a Good Deal!

    The cyclone blower is great. Pays for itself in no time and has allowed me to help others close their pool as well.

    Need guidance with pool opening. Low flow/pressure

    I just wanted to update for anyone who is following. Two o-rings needed to be replaced. One in the bottom drain on the cartridge filter and the other from pump to filter connection. He still has an issue with the bottom pool drains but will look at that later. At least now the pump is running...

    Need guidance with pool opening. Low flow/pressure

    The skimmer works but never gets enough water to fill the pump near the top. It's like it looses suction.

    Skimmer faceplate bleaching

    I ordered a replacement but will install it next season. I do have what looks like fading around the pool but just at the water line. I have a SWG installed but don't use it. I manually dose liquid chlorine and muriatic acid. Nothing in the skimmer other than CYA. I will try to get a pic but it...

    I’m too lazy to have a pool.

    Cover the top when not in use to save cleanup time. Mostly its just adding chlorine which is a few mins a day even if you aren't testing daily.

    Skimmer faceplate bleaching

    My grey skimmer faceplate has a white band within the water level band. Is this normal? I use liquid chlorine and add at the return side with the jet faced upwards to agitate the water as I pour.
