    Maytronics cord - how tough/easy to replace?

    I have not checked with Marina Pool and Spa. It is "working" but it is missing a corner because the cord is twisted short. The "plus" has the control box that allows you to program daily or weekly cleaning. It is the same cleaner as Dolphin S300i, with a different color scheme (orange and...

    Maytronics cord - how tough/easy to replace?

    I have a 2020 Triton PS Plus and the device for keeping the cord from twisting is not longer working. And with my cleaning staying in the pool (It cleans everyday at 5AM), the cord is getting "grungy". Amazon has the correct cord for $299. Anyone replaced their own cord?

    Not in MY POOL! Everyone is required to clean their butts before entry. MANDATORY checks.... 😉

    Insults are not. Have fun with your reindeer games.

    1994 is new research? I'll stick with TFP methods.

    Sealing Sandstone

    I had mine done. The clear coating starting turning hazy white. Zoom in on my picture. The stone is a brick red.

    Polaris 280 question

    Yes. The black "cap" and the seal underneath can leak. Just replace the whole valve

    Not a Trouble Free Pool

    Let's try this again... Pool at the top of a Building in Mexico City during the recent earthquake. While the water looks very clean, it is NOT a "Trouble-Free" pool. I can't believe the guy just stayed in the water!

    Not a Trouble Free Pool

    How much of a TFP nerd am I that I focused on the pool and not the sea lion?

    Unidentified sticky greeny blue build up in custom filter

    One question first: Do you own a Maytronics pool cleaner? The cord on mine is beginning to disintegrate and it is producing blue sticky Crud. I agree it certainly could be Copper Algaecide as posted above. Just trying to give you a potential alternative.

    Quick and Dirty weekend drain... Experts?

    While the pump is rated for 3700 GPH, I expect with lift it will be closer to 3000 average. 2 pumps could do 6000 GPH, that is a LOT of flow! That would drain my pool in about 4 hours! One pump should drain your pool in about 4.5 hours.

    Sunsets/Sunrises or Moonshots photos

    Post some photos of Sunsets/Sunrises or Moonshots. Here is my pool with a sunset in the background. My Wife and I do a 2 mile walk around the lakes (flood retention ponds) in our neighborhood. Here are some sunset shots over one of the lakes.
