    Hayward Super Pump Strainer Housing

    My super pump strainer housing (SPX1600AA) was violated by a chipmunk and the drain plug inlet gasket seat is mauled/chewed. The inlet/outlet is 1.5".

    Removing Salt Cell for the winter

    This is my first full year with a new pool. I live east of Atlanta and my second winter as the pool was finished January of this year. Freeze protection is set to 36 and has already been in play. This season I decided to remove the salt cell and replace with a dummy and move to chlorine tablets...

    New Pool in Ga

    New to the forum and hoping to learn as much as possible. Installed a SWG, 18,000 gal pebble tec with spa and rock water feature. The articles have been extremely useful as the builder "pool school" was less than desirable. I wish I had know of this site prior to opening as I would have been...
