    Leak from center of PureLine Prime pump

    To add to the other laundry list of issues I've had with this thing, it now leaks! Its a PureLine Prime VS 2.7 It leaks right around the center, water seems to be coming out right where the motor meets the rest of the pump. It seems to be at the Seal Plate, but I'm unsure as there are other...

    Pebble vs Plaster

    Pebble vs Plaster

    I really need to get my pool refinished, its got to the point where it just has to be done. What is your opinion on pebble vs plaster? All of the quotes I have gotten have been for plaster as I didn't actually know the pebble finish existed

    All sorts of issues - Where to start?

    I figured I would just update this thread to anyone who finds it The pump has been great, I have not noticed any issues and flow is fantastic. The filter has also done well, but as suggested it does need more frequent cleanings. If the pool is really, really dirty I may need to clean once a...

    Is this Algae?

    Maybe Ill make it more of a priority then, but I'm not too concerned Would a good plan be to just ramp up the chlorine level and have a good scrub every day?

    Is this Algae?

    Is this Algae?

    The plaster is already chipping off, so I imagine it was even easier for it to get in there and grow

    Chlorine puc did lighten it a lot, also made it easier to remove the stain In this case, is it just a case of really working at the stain with a hard brush?

    Is this Algae?

    What would Vitamin C do? If I try the puc, would there be a clear spot under it if it was Algae?
