It certainly looks bad on the springs and fulcrum. It looks like it is getting to the point that is will fail at some point with the layers of rust coming off. I'd rather take the entire thing off in the interest of safety. Will think about it.

Might be good. Keep the kids off it. 😂

Hi there. I have a diving board that has seen better days. It needs to be replaced. The original has the following marking in it. Ideally we’d like to replace it with: Something with similar holes so we don’t have to redrill and get someone to do That won’t corrode due to salt water pool...

Hi there. I have an M600. About 2 years old. Bough from Marina after learning about it from TFP. The control panel doesn't work any longer, so I can't use bluetooth / wifi. Contacts Maytronics, they are sending a new one. It's been a month, and they said there would be a delay due to...

I did purchase a copper strip test, it showed 0.0 copper. I assume it is at least as accurate as the pool store. :laughblue:

The only other thing we have had is massive rains in the area, which raised the pool water up to the lip of the pool. I had to pump it down.

No green finger nails, and my blonde daughter is still blonde. There is a stain in the deep end though, that seems like it set in over winter.

Thank you. Upon research and checking with our pool guy (I edited above), they added in Copper algaecide - which he said is standard. I forgot to tell him not to add anything like I have in years past. They usually want to close by adding something as well, but I tell them I already added...

Thanks. This spring after opening about 3 weeks ago we have added: - Tap water to get back up to level after opening. - Liquid chlorine -- maybe 12 gallons or so, since I didn't have the salt system on until just the other day. - Conditioner, since the CYA was low after the winter. - My wife...

OK, I guess I didn't give much thought about the report when I saw that PH was 8.7, Salt is 2500, Stabilizer is 29. I figured if those are wrong, I would guess Copper is wrong too. Any advice?

My pool has been open for 3 weeks here in PA. I tested last night and all my numbers were perfect using Taylor. For fun, I knew I’d be passing the pool store today and had them test the water, along with their recommendations. Results attached.
