    Dolphin Doheny's Discovery Pool Cleaner

    Hello, I bought a refurbished unit from Doheny's site, prepped it and plopped it into the freshly opened pool. I watched it for about 10 minutes and it seemed to be going well for it's maiden underwater voyage. However, I brushed the pool and mucked up the water (being a freshly uncovered...

    Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club

    Re: Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club Thank you, Nursenini! I'll be ordering one around March or April. With any luck, it will go on sale by then. Still worth it as I spend 20 to 30 hours a month pushing dirt around with the pole and vacuum.

    Re: Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club First, thanks for the great reviews, this is a great post/thread and it has sold me on purchasing a robot for my cleaning. I'm a bit confused because of the current price tags on their website. Most replies here say they got the...

    My Pool Pics

    Unbelievable! That is enough work for more than one person for sure and I hope they had tons of documentation to go along with the new home if you are seriously planning on keeping that oasis maintained yourself/family. Absolutely gorgeous. I would love to see some pictures of the pump house...

    Fake Main Drain?

    aussieta, thanks for the input. I think you solved my curiosity question about my pool and lack of drainage from the main drain. I know I have a "breather" pvc pipe coming up by the house under the awning and the septic guy said "that goes to your pool (dumbass implied)". I wrote it off but...

    Fake Main Drain?

    Great story! I too am thinking I have a similar situation and age of pool. I drained it once to clean and refill after buying the house and thought I'd stick a water hose into the drain hole and flush out any debris...in case it had been blocked up. Needless to say after about three seconds...

    Replacement Hayward Pump

    I would agree that it looks like a Hayward Super II pump although my motor doesn't have a run capacitor like yours is showing so it may be the original? Sorry, not much help there and I'm not familiar with the original model so maybe they look the same...I dunno. My suggestion is to call...

    Hayward Super II Pump

    Hello, I have a problem! I'm looking for the wise and knowledgable person to help with a wiring issue. Problem is that I have said pump, but the 115/230V jumper broke into half a dozen pieces while working on it. I don't know what the jumper was jumping. I'm on hold to Hayward now to...

    Anchor bolt rusted and busted

    Hi jblizzle, Thanks for the quick response. I was afraid that would be the best solution but thought I'd ask to see if there are other methods or solutions as good as a repour of concrete. Time to get the wheelbarrow out of retirement! Funny you mentioned bonding as I was just reading...

    Anchor bolt rusted and busted

    Greetings, I have a little problem that I created by not WD40'ing the bolts and using a 10 foot pipe as a breaker bar. As you can see in the pictures, one of the bolts is now broken! I'm so good at creating 2 projects while attempting another...can I hear an AMEN! Also you notice that there...
