    Auto Cover Question

    Hello, I like to ask a question about Auto Pool Covers? I assume the cover is made of vinyl material. Can anyone tell me how thick/Oz it is made of? I am thinking of doing a DIY project to jerry rig several vinyl tarps to cover my pool when not in use. Also, what are your thoughts of using...

    Vacuum Line

    Yes, Thanks. I'm going to try this if the other scenario fails to work. In a way I wanted to duplicate how my pool guys closed the pool every year. Either they were able to blow it out or they might have closed it with water still in the line.

    Vacuum Line

    After plugging my returns I was left to deal with the booster pump line. I did not see bubbles coming out of the vacuum return at the side of the pool. Hindsight might I need to wait longer or my seal was not sufficient. I guess my question is does the cyclone have enough power/pressure to...

    Annoying flies

    What is the best way to get rid of flies when BBQ'ing? When eatting outside they come by the dozen. Mind you we don't have food lying around before the BBQ. No vegetation, just grass and privacy evergreens. Have people tried the fly magnet -fly traps (where they get trapped in a container)...

    Raypak PRV installation

    This is from a Raypak heater. Its a 3/4 NPT plug for a PRV installation. I can't seem to find a tool online to purchase so I can remove it install a pressure relief valve. All I know is the tool has to fit exactly to remove it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
