    Can pool math estimate pool volume?

    I guestimated my pool size. I log in what I add and the test results. Can pool math then say - sorry based on the math your pool size is not x it is y?

    Looking for a new cleaner

    I don't think I have a booster pump - bought pool with the house a year ago and the pool inspector recommended the Polaris 360. Let me look into the wheel. I will research on what a wheel replacement costs and see which way to go. Maybe see if I can give this bad boy more life and wait to...

    Looking for a new cleaner

    I currently have a very beaten up Pentair Legend - Four Wheel. One of the wheels have fallen off. Rather than having it repaired I was recommended to get a Polaris 360. Would you recommend sticking with a cleaner that is attached to the hose or going with a wireless cleaner? Curious to other...

    Cleaner replacement

    Hello from Northern California

    I like that - one with the pool. The previous owner left chlorine tabs. Can I take advantage of those or should I just stick with liquid chlorine?

    Hello from Northern California

    I removed about two weeks of organic material from the filters today and added 85 oz of liquid chlorine. Should I expect to add chlorine everyday or can this be a weekly thing?

    Hello from Northern California

    I am doing the Free & Combined Chlorine test (FAS-DPD) and I feel like. I dropped at least 10 dippers of the R-0870 and it hasn't turned pink.

    Hello from Northern California

    my test kit just arrived. didn't add in any chlorine last week so curious what kind of readings i will get. i couldn't figure out how to turn on the pump until today so probably need to get going with adding chlorine soon.
