@ajw22 I have a 27 Hayward Pro Series Sand Filter with a 1.5 hp variable speed pump. It's a splash pool above ground pool and I'm using the skimmer long baskets it came with (and I'm adding "socks" to them because of the fine dog hair) . There are two suction ports with the skimmers (placed...

Hi, Is there another way to make a payment other than paypal? For some reason, when I try to make a donation I get some error saying that my account is out of date or something. I don't have a paypal account but I thought one could still make payments with a credit card.

Thanks @ajw22 and @Jimrahbe. I think I need to do some reading on the TFP pool care process and the link you provided on further reading. I generally do not floc my pool -- maybe once a year after I've had an incredible amount of "dirty" dogs in the pool. (It's a 41 x 21 above ground dog pool...

Not sure if this is under the correct category, but here goes. I made the switch to a SWG for my above ground pool so fairly new to this system. Can you floc a salt water pool? Can't seem to think of why not? (I have used ProTeam's SuperFloc in the past when I was not using a SWG and worked...

Looks like the pump will be about 1 1/2 feet below the water line. Thank you for all your help!!

Thanks Bill, looks like 3 feet it is!

Got it, 3 feet depth, thank you!!!

Hi, thank you for your reply! We are installing an above ground pool (21 x 41) and we were planning on a 2" pipe size. We have not yet purchased the pump. If you have any recommendations, I'd love to hear especially for a self priming one. I was looking at: a Hayward PowerFlo Matrix Pool...

Thanks Texas Splash!

Hi, I'm sure this question has been answered before but my search skills are not great and only have found one thread and the answer varied. So, my question is, how deep do you need to bury the pool pipes underground? 12 inches? 6 inches? I have about a 100 foot run I need to bury my Above...

Thanks everyone for your replies! (@nick_wa , @aboykin2269 (awesome pics!), @mbuice @cfherrman , @Scott123 ). Now to look up these materials up ;-)

Hi, I have a 21 x 41 ABG pool that is planned for outdoors. This is my first time and I've been reading all sorts of threads on this topic but I'm afraid I'm not using the correct keywords so I thought I would post. What is the best type of material to put down prior to putting my pool down? I...

Thank you @JamesW!!!

Thanks for your reply @Bama Rambler ! Yes, the pool and equipment will be approximately the same level. Now I have to research how you even blow out those pipes in the winter. (Sorry, new to all of this and trying to learn).

Hi, I have a 21 X 41 above ground pool (28K gallons) and I'm trying to research if I can place the pool pump, filter and heater about 100 feet away. I don't have the pump, filter, or heater yet so I am flexible. Is this possible? Any recommendation for the ideal pump for this set up?
