    Changing ladder to accommodate new deck

    We just installed a deck around half of our above ground pool. The deck tucks under the top railing. Is there a way to alter our current steps / ladder to now work on the deck without buying a new setup or parts? The steps go inside the pool with a platform going over the top railing and...

    Anyone used Menard's Spash Pool Shock Liquid Chlorinator?

    Excellent! We just bought 30 of them. Any idea how to decipher the date code? I already read the how to read date codes link on TFP with no luck for the menard's bleach. We will be storing it in our basement, so hopefully it lasts through the season...

    Anyone used Menard's Spash Pool Shock Liquid Chlorinator?

    How long did your Dolphin S50 last?

    Oh yes. We bought the ahh-some before the spa even arrived haha. Sounds good to me! I'm bringing the FC up to 12 and 1 hour later, I'm back down to 7, with CC of 1.0. It's an endless battle with the same outcome! Grr makes me so mad! Last time I will ever leave the lid unlatched!!!

    Ahh-Some Questions for First Purge

    I take it ALL back!!! I didn't have my air jets open...it absolutely doesn't work without them open. Almost instantly I got foam and green slime! SOOO much green gunk! Unfortunately, I had already sent the help that I recruited home after the first round was a flop. Now I'm on my own, but...

    Ahh-Some Questions for First Purge

    So I did my first purge and was really disappointed. Just like with the jetted tub, nothing really happened. A few bubbles, the water is cloudy, but there is no scum, and no foam. I even added an extra tsp with zero results. What am I doing wrong??? I was really hoping I would have some great...
