    Eyeball issues

    Hi everyone, So when we went to change out the little circular pool valve that we substitute in during the winter to put in the eyeball jet back in for the summer, we could not get it out. So we just opened the ‘shutter’ type coverings on the winterizing ball so that there’s an opening for the...

    Cya troubleshoot

    Well, I’m a nurse so I usually have syringes and Novacaine and various burn dressings since my husband is a chef so I’m just surprised I don’t have one! But thanks for your knowledge!

    Thank you! I guess it was the wrong day to stop doing drugs or that syringe would’ve come in handy….🤔🤔🤣

    Cya troubleshoot

    So I’m just wondering if anybody knows how to do the CYA reading without having the little bottle with the red cap? I had to re-order one cause I lost it and I’m just wondering if there is someone who knows what the measurements would be and how to do that without the bottle?

    Hi everyone, I have a question about my pool gauge. I need to replace it and I’m wondering about the measurement. It’s 2 and 1/4 inches across including the metal ring around it. The clear screen itself is 2 inches. I’m only finding 2 inch gauges so I’m not sure if that will fit or be too...

    Filter cleaning

    Hi everyone, I’m having trouble keeping my accordion filter clean for any length of time. I just bought a back up one so I can be deep cleaning one while the other one is in use, and I usually deep clean with a couple of dishwasher pods or powder dishwasher cleaner, but I’m wondering if there’s...

    TA question

    Hi everyone, My TA historically has always been high, but I wonder if if I’m doing it correctly. When you put in the last of the three drops, do you wait until the liquid turns completely completely red, because mine will turn red for a second after I add the drop but then it goes back to...

    Green goo

    That’s a thought, but with 2 crazy pups and a yard full of water (and mud), I think I’ll opt for the chlorine…🤪

    Green goo

    Happy 2024 pool season everyone! We closed our pool too early last year and now we are paying the price of opening to green goo 🤢
