    Opening and Converting to SWG

    Hello! We have decided to simplify life this year by purchasing a robot cleaner and converting to salt. I'm planning to order the RJ60 from Discount Salt Pool.

    Sand in pool after deep cleaning

    Well. New sand in and everything up and running. The laterals seemed fine so no repairs needed. We did have a dirtier than usual pool this year due to holes in the mesh safety cover ( ordering new one as soon as I figure that out). So we were going to replace sand at end of season or...

    Sand in pool after deep cleaning

    Hello! We did a deep.clean of the sand on Thursday, and then yesterday (Saturday) i noticed sand in the pool especially near return jets. It was probably there before yesterday, I just couldn't see it due to water clarity. I vacuumed it up and this morning it looks just as bad. I'm worried...

    How do you know when your filter is the problem?

    How do you know when your filter is the problem?

    I do appreciate this. It has probably kept me as well as many others from jumping on the floc train without proper understanding and consideration. Still undecided. But thanks for the info!

    Thank you for the feedback. Would polyquat kill the "hidden" algae?
