I will try the loosen technique first. And see if I can get to it all. I will have a new gasket ready to go if I take it all the way off. Also I’ll make sure just to lower enough like you said. Thanks for the tips if I do it

Theirs no getting a brush in their good enough in my opinion . I mean I can try. I remember the first year when I went to close the pool. I had to unscrew the plate to put on a different plate that would fit the plastic snap on winter cover. The guy at pool store told me theirs screws on both...

The pool is 3 years old . Maybe if I just loosen it and not completely remove it will allow a gap so I can get in their with a brush

how do I glean the algae out of there. It’s been the reason for my Problems I think

Yes it’s in between the plate and liner. Are you saying if I unscrew that I’m screwed ?

So if you guys look into my past about algae you’ll see pics of stuff on the bottom of my pool. It appeared to be algae but I was In denial. I would complete multiple slams just to have it come back when the chlorine level would drop. I would blame bird droppings , sand from filter ( which I...

Thanks for sharing your experience. I need to close the pool soon and the water is freezing so I’m hoping I don’t have to hop in to scrub extra hard lol

I have neglected my pool for a couple weeks. Upon testing I had zero fc. I dumped 2 gallons of shock and I’ll be buying more tomorrow to do a proper slam. I have 2 questions. 1. Will the algae spots come up with less elbow grease once the fc is high ? As of right now it’s hard to scrum away...

I’ve read through a bunch of threads about brown spots, greenish brown spots that poof away, dead algae , pollen. Everyone has an opinion about what it is. A lot of people can’t seem to get rid of it. I also notice the big dogs like mr manakkus, mc daggger,newdude and Texas splash all commented...

Time to buy a bunch of chlorine than 👊

So I put the solar cover on and neglected the pool for about a week. Upon uncovering I discovered algae. Looked like mud smudge marks all over bottom. When I vacuumed it up there was some green spots underneath the muddy stuff. I had this problem before last year. Both time my water stayed...

Thank you

Just found this online. Same spot that I posted in pic
