Thanks. I like that kit. I'm tired of having my skimmer hanging over the edge of my pool. Lol

I have a skimmer but it is the one that hangs over the pool rail. I don't have one built into the pool. I would have to cut the pool wall to use the one you suggest. It's that ok to do?

I am interested in converting the fittings on my above ground pool from 1 1/4" to 1 1/2". I upgraded my pump to a 3/4 hp and feel the smaller hoses are limiting my pump's true ability. I've seen the type B adapters on Amazon but those don't seem like a true solution. I feel I need to make the...

I just bought it last summer.

I have the pool in my signature and it's now a year old. I have started noticing when I reach into the pool while cleaning or doing other things, when I rub on the liner where the cross bars are, it feels like I'm getting fiberglass on my arms. Am I imagining things?? Is there something I can...

I currently have the pool in my signature. With chlorine prices constantly rising, I want a SWG system. I've had one before so I have a general knowledge of them. I'm looking for recommendations on brand/models, BUT, I don't wanna spend $1,000 on one. I'm looking in the $200-400 range if...

I will try switching to twice daily dosing and I'm gonna go ahead and change the sand in my filter. Let's see what happens.

When I floc, I do vacuum to waste. Are you talking about the residual messing up the filter? I will say the sand in my filter is about 4 years old. Yes, I'm using liquid chlorine. I have been adding about 16-20 ounces every other day. It appears maybe I need to add chlorine daily?? Maybe 8-10...

For the last few weeks I have been battling an algae problem. My test numbers have been good and I've been keeping up with my chlorine. I will say my pool does not get used a lot so the only "circulation" it gets is from the pump/filter. Could this "stagnation" be the cause of my algae...

Ahh, ok. Thanks. My CH is at 300 right now.

Ok. Will take care of that right now. Other numbers look good? The TA throws me off because I read different recommendations. Some say between 100-120 and some say 80-100.

It's me again! :) So, I've been keeping up with my pool. Numbers for the most part have been steady. I'm wondering tho if I need to lower my TA and pH or are they fine where they're at? #'s-- FC 5, CC 0, pH 8, TA 130, CYA 30 .

Thanks. Will take care of all that today and update tomorrow.

No I wasn't able to. I added the stabilizer and chlorine later in the evening and the stabilizer hadn't really had a chance to dissolve. I can test tonight and again in the morning. Would that be good?
