    trying to figure out pool vacuum

    I have a hth multi-surface vacuum head but I do not have skimmer basket. Can I still use it and just hook it up to the filter pump? Or will it not work properly?:confused:

    My pool is full and slightly un-level any ideas

    So I just went out and measured the height of the water. The low end measures 36.2" and the deep end measure 40". However like I said it is a slight incline because maybe about 1/4 the way across the pool the water level is at the 40". I am thinking just some shoveling around a few of the legs...

    My pool is full and slightly un-level any ideas

    Preventing Moisture in my Intex Cartridge Filter during the rain

    So pretty much I shouldn't have anything to worry about! The last one I had out and we had heavy heavy rains for a couple days. And when I went to turn it on it just wouldn't run. So I stuck the motor in rice for a few days and still nothing. Then I took apart the outlet box and saw there was...

    Preventing Moisture in my Intex Cartridge Filter during the rain

    Awesome thanks. I can definitely see the difference in quality with the Intex Filter compared to the one that came with the Summer Escapes pool. Unfortunately my outside plug is all the way on the other side of the house. So I have it plugged into an Outdoor Industrial Extension cord and plugged...
