    SOS - White-foamed due to use of HDX Germicidal Bleach

    Hi Justin: Thanks for the input. I hope the algaecide is the problem. I usually used it only at opening and closing. I didn't know about the issue with splash free bleach as I used it many times before without any issues.

    Need recommendation for leaf catcher

    I am a fan of Kreepy Krauly too. I have a general question which might be a little elementary. Now, the regular pool filter system uses the skimmer baskets to filter large debris such as rocks, acorn, etc. Vaccuum systems such as Kreepy Krauly just sucks up everything to the pool filter...
