OK I understand what your saying. It's not in the budget to replace it at this time. So I'm looking for any another alternatives. I can disassemble it and clean/flush and possibly coat the rust prone parts with something if that's an option. I know it may be a bandaid fix. But I'm willing to...

I'm getting a lot of rust coming out of jets when using pool heater. It's an older unit. Jandy light 2 gas heater. I want to know if I flush the rust out somehow or what is suggested to get rid of the rust.

70 bucks isn't bad if you can get 4 years or better out of them. I'll probably just replace them. Thanks for the input.

OK I'm striking out..this is a bummer.

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew the best place to get replacement slings or the fabric to reuphoster sling type patio furniture. The only thing I'm finding online for replacement sling/fabric is about the same price as a cmpleatly new chair.

Lol No worries. But I was wondering what was up with that.

Yes thank you everyone. I now have everything working and my numbers are within recommended specs. I will keep a close eye on things to maintain the pool. I will say that during the clearing process to one thing that impressed me the most was the D.E. Filter Media Alternative Cellulose Fiber. I...

Okay here it is... I just want to thank everyone for the input and encouragement. I don't think I would have been able to accomplish this within my budget without this forum. Although I was under a tight budget and I kind of used somewhat of an unorthodox method. I have achieved clear pool...

Thanks SkyKid. But it was more of the pool not giving up I guess you could say. Still not all the way clear. But we got in it for the first time yesterday. I expect in just a few more days it will be crystal clear. I'll post pics when/if it gets there.

Wall in not metal but I like the idea. Would be cool to have a few of them around the edges under the coping.

Not sure where to put this so I just stuck it here. I was wanting to add some lighting inside the pool itself. My pool currently does not have lighting in the pool but I do have plenty of lighting outside and around the pool. I don't want to hard wire a light in the pool. Any suggestions on...

This is correct. That is what I've been doing and its been working well. Within 10 hours or so the pressure is up 5 to 8 psi. Time to backwash then. But its different each time it seems. Give or take a couple hours or a couple psi. None the less, Its working well for me.
