    Does a natural gas heater need a regulator installed?

    Hi everyone. I noticed my newly installed natural gas heater, pentair e40i 400k BTU, does not have a regulator installed in line. Is that a problem for safety reasons? Thanks

    Hi all. Just got my pool completed last September and this is my first season using it. I've noticed that the are many small rocks under my vinyl liner. None seem that big, smaller than 1/2 inch, but I've gotten a few small cuts on feet. Would this go away over time or does it need to get...

    Hi there! Just retested this morning and PH shot up to 8 and TA down to 80. Only thing I did was run the bubblers for an hour or so, could they aeration be the cause of the PH jump?
