    Sooo many aphids... sapping into my pool!!!

    Just wanted to say I'm having an identical experience (but not with the cya) here in Austin. Aphid poop isn't what I signed up for. On the bright side I think it might be getting a little better this week.

    Volleyball ball recomendations

    I've gone through 4 in-pool volleyballs this summer. For some reason, after pretty normal use, they must get a small hole and start losing air! Yes, four of them. Does anyone have a brand or specific ball on amazon that lasts!?!? Thanks!

    Swimply possibly changing bathroom/reservation length policy

    Not sure if this is the right forum but for anyone out there that hosts a pool on swimply I came across a screen in the newest app update that bothered me. If you host and don't have a bathroom, they want to limit maximum reservation time to 1 hour!!! Unless you rent a port-a-potty. I emailed...

    How many drops pentair rainbow test kit for chlorine

    I have a rainbow pentair water test kit that didn't come with instructions from my pool builder. All the bottles say how many drops to use except the chlorine one. Is it 5 or 1? Or something else I guess. Thanks

    Closing the loop on this thread. A few days later it started to work again for me!

    Unable to connect to pentair screen logic remotely this past week

    About the last week I've been unable to connect to my pentair screen logic system when I'm away from my home. I checked the password and it is correct and I tried without a password just to be sure. I also tried removing and re-adding the system to the app. I am able to connect if I'm local on...

    Basketball goal installation question

    My pool builder included a couple of umbrella sleeves and one of them is in a great place to put a single pole basketball hoop. Does anyone know if those fit nicely into an umbrella sleeve or does it require a different drilled hole? The follow-on question would be if I have to drill another...

    New pool - builder still controlling water levels - weird?

    That list has looked pretty much the same since late December. I guess my only fear was that they would try to void the warranty. Why do you not suggest starting to use the chlorine tablet chlorinator yet? They have been against it as well for some reason I don't understand.

    New pool - builder still controlling water levels - weird?

    I admit some of this is easy, but I want a finished product worth the 100k I paid... - Ordering ledge lounger products (reduced cost). They were going to get me a shipping price so that I could see if it was even a savings. - Repair cracked and broken coping by tanning ledge. A small crack...

    New pool - builder still controlling water levels - weird?

    The problem is they haven't finished yet! Its been a very disappointing process. I went with a smaller company recommended by a friend because they had a good experience. Very personable. Problem seems to be that the rush of pools being built during covid last year, this company took on more...
