    #Covid #WorkFromHome #LunchBreak

    I just opened my pool up this week. This is the plan going forward. I can’t wait. I even bought new pool kaftans for lounging while working up contracts. The quarantine isn’t bothering me at all.

    Looking for pictures of pools with darker liners

    Can you see your toes at night in a dark liner? My liner is old, and aqua, but I like that I can see my toes. My husband wants a dark liner when we replace it, but I want to see my toes, and bugs, at night. I know its silly, but I won’t feel comfortable if I can’t fully see at night.

    I have Home Depot about 2 miles away so I’m headed out the door to check now (I had to go to Walmart again anyway and thats next door). Online says 0, but I will be so grateful if I could get my hands in at least some liquid chlorine to hold me over. UPDATE: Home Depot had 0 liquid chlorine. I...

    Mouse went down skimmer

    Wahhhhhhh! I don’t think it liqufied as the sucker was pretty whole when I was trying to fish it out last night (the water swirls were keeping it afloat and I only had a kabob stick (which I used to lift the cover). I wasn’t fast enough and down the pipe he went. I checked the pump filter last...

    Mouse went down skimmer

    Hi everyone! I don’t normally clean the filter basket but my husband got stuck at work and it was pretty full. There was a mouse in the skimmer and it somehow fell in the skimmer line (I was terrified). We have an old buster crabbe with an aqua genie so there is only one skimmer. It seems to be...

    New Pool Guy

    I’m a newbie as well but I’ve quickly learned that this group is invaluable! You have an indoor pool so your FC gets eaten up a lot less quicker hence your high FC. Let us know when you’re able to get an accurate reading. Welcome to the newbie club!

    New Pool Owner Needing some help and guidance!

    Here’s a bump for your post. I’m a newbie myself, but I have learned in my short time here that the best test kit is the TF-100. I’m not sure if your test kit from Leslies would be accurate enough. I’m hoping someone more knowledgeable can help you out!!

I have come up with the exact same models in my research (I considered the Triton as well, but its missing the anti-swivel cord). My husband is a technology junkie and he loves to automate everything (our entire house...
