    Hole in liner on pool floor

    Update. Patched the hole, water seems to be holding…about two days….however I put my dolphin in pool yesterday and overnight I’ve lost like 2 inches of water. About to check the patches to see if pool cleaner ripped them up. Wish me luck. Oh after patching I noticed the floor liner didn’t...

    Hole in liner on pool floor

    My liner has a hole in it on the floor of the pool. I can feel what I thought was air but realized must be water. Can I patch the hole or replace liner? I would like to make it through the season but I’m losing water rapidly.

    Above ground pool leak

    I think my above ground pool has a leak in the liner. It’s not possible to look for wet ground as my pool is 2.5’ in the ground. Being that it is winter time, how do you suggest I find the leak?

    Possibly black algea

    That’s what I thought. He insist the black algae is there and has been a couple of years. Says water has been in pool 7 years and hasn’t touched pool since last season

    Possibly black algea

    Is it necessary to drain then acid wash an inground finite pool to get rid of the algea? Asking for a friend, he thinks it’s black algea.

    Return sending dirt back to pool

    I test my pool so I don’t think it algae. Pool is clear and test results balance.

    Return sending dirt back to pool

    Thanks will try. My filter is less than a year old. I think maybe rinsing a Lil longer may help. When I turn filter back on it comes out clear then has a burst of dirt then back to clear

    Fine sandy looking stuff at bottom of pool

    I have the same issue with my brand new sand filter.

    Return sending dirt back to pool

    I vacuumed my pool to filter, turned off pump, backwashed till clear, rinsed until clear then turned back to filter only to see dirt return to the pool. Why is this happening?

    Pressure gauge very low

    Hi! I just turned my pool pump on and the pressure is below 10, usually closer to 20. Do I backwash? I thought the need to backwash would increase pressure.
