    Best pool floats?

    We really like the Water Pop Pool Floats however they are now ~$48!! That's absurd considering the were like $20 a couple of years ago. They are comfortable however and I like that they have a backrest and your ars is still in the water for those hot days

    Concrete deck refinishing...

    Lanzz, your concrete came out really good. I think this is the ticket. Did you have any cracks in the concrete and if so how did they come out?

    Hayward Heater Issues

    Late entry update... Went with the 400K BTU and did the install myself. Easy-Peasy. The 400K cranks and is much quieter than my old 200K unit which used to whistle. Thanks to those who recommended the 400K unit. The water coming out the return line is very warm when the heater is running. Very...

    Hayward Heater Issues

    ^^^ Yes, I believe so. I was told to make sure that there's ample gas pressure. Not sure if the 200K BTU requires the same gas pressure as the 400K.

    Hayward Heater Issues

    Nope, no spa. I was thinking that I should probably get a 40,000 BTU capable heater. Was kind of surprised that the one I have is only 20,000. I also just confirmed the code it's throwing after I depress the temp up or dn key is r3. It displays that code for a few seconds then a number around...

    Hayward Gas Heater Problems

    I think I have the right section now... So I have a SR200NA Hayward gas heater that's approximately 17 years old. With a 20'x40' 28,000 gal pool I'm not sure if this is even the proper size heater for the pool. Didn't know much when we had it put in. I also pull the board every winter as mice...

    Not sure if this is the right section for this post but, it seemed better than the hot tub/spa forum. Maybe not. So I have a SR200NA Hayward gas heater that's approximately 17 years old. With a 20'x40' 28,000 gal pool I'm not sure if this is even the proper size heater for the pool. Didn't...

    Clicking Sound From Hot Tub motor -- SOLVED --

    Re: Clicking Sound From Hot Tub motor Isn't clicking normally associated with relay actions? My tub was tripping the GFI plug so I decided to replace the relays after pretty much isolating everything else that I thought might be causing the tripping. No more noise from the relays and so far so...

    Tiger River Sumatran Summer Mode Stuck On

    I may have mislead you but there's nothing wrong with either pump. Both are working fine. My issue is I can't get out of Summer Mode. Thinking it may be the control panel. Since I replaced the relays I haven't any issue with the GFCI tripping, of course that's all going to change with this post ;-)

    Tiger River Sumatran Summer Mode Stuck On

    Hi everyone, I have a twenty year old (1998) Tiger River Sumantran that we've been nursing along for the past year or so. Prior to that everything was pretty good with the occassional pump replacement etc. This past spring I had to replace both the Jet and circulation pumps. Once those were...

    Pool Cleaner Power?

    Quick question, can you use an extension cord to connect to your pool cleaner? I ask because the closest outlet is some 30'-40' away and the GFI might even be further. I thought I read that your power connection has to be plugged straight to the outlet. Thanks,
