thx. loop loc cover, I believe. It is about 12-13 years old. A couple of tears but nothing super big. Then a few holes - look like from cigarette burns (I don’t smoke lol). I can’t take pictures until Friday - leave early come home late when it is dark. My pool guy tells me I need to...

Hello everyone, I’d like to evaluate my pool cover - either repair the existing or get a brand new one. Who should I get quotes from, please? I live in Livingston, NJ. thank you!

hello everyone, I seem to be doing something wrong as I get leaks and replace these O rings one after another. The O ring just pops out with the pressure of the water, I guess, but I am probably not correctly putting it together? Tightening the screws wrong somehow? So my question is this: do...

Thanks! Yes, I had the plain white plaster before. What my contractor told me today when he came is that my pool is still curing and the final result will be white with small blueish sparkles in it. So it won’t be a smooth white surface I am used to but rather something different compared to...

Thanks! yes, the builder came Saturday and showed me how to brush. Also he started up my pool filter and told me to balance the water. I went to the store and had the water tested - ph was 8.4 and ta was low at 3. I added baking soda and muriatic acid later to correct. The water looks super...

Hello everyone, I just had my pool replastered - used the Diamond Brite white color for a classic look/ wanted to replicate what I had before. (I had a white plaster and not diamond brite tho) The job was done on Friday. i have balanced the water on Saturday - ph was high, ta low, but nothing...

Thanks James. I can’t take the picture now as the water is murky. Once the water clears, I will post a picture. As I said, the stain is 85% gone. I sort of decided to try to enjoy the pool now vs continuing with the stain treatment. I plan on finishing Removing all the stain at the end of the...

Thanks. Yes, this has been an ordeal. shouldnt pool filter catch the copper and thus remove it from the pool? I assume that’s why JM representative isn’t recommending to drain and refill? how do I “ensure that it is safe to drain and refill”?

Yes it was just 12% chlorine /pool shock. I am just beyond stressed right now, lol!!!

Thanks again. my staining is copper that came from my pool heater as my pool water was imbalanced upon pool opening. That led, most likely, to the bleeding of copper into the pool, I was told ny the MJ rep. one more thing I just noticed when I added bleach just now - almost instantly the...

Thanks Texas Splash! i wonder why the MJ rep would say that I don’t need to replace the water then! to replace the water - I’ve never done that. Do I empty the pool first and then start refilling, or can I simultaneously drain and refill at the same time? Thanks!

Hello, quick update: I used Jacks Magic #2, as first suggested by you plus as confirmed by the test kit. I am happy to report that my stains are 85% gone. I now gave up on the remaining stain and am hopeful I can use the pool today for the first time this season. First of all, I wanted to...
