    Polaris Freedom?

    Anyone have this having issues with it notifying completion? Also noticed my battery indicator in the water showing orange with 30 minutes left? Is that normal or is my battery dying?

    First Time Closing with Auto Cover Questions

    I’m in the same situation this year, first time closing and going to use my automatic cover. I’m reading conflicting information on whether to keep the skimmer open or sealed with a skimmer plug. One article said to leave it open with two gallon jugs inside, so you can use the skimmer to...

    Automatic Pool Cover Lid for Pavers - Ideas for cover to hold pavers

    Thought I'd give an update, hopefully also can help some others. Unfortunately the weather has turned, it's now all snowed on, so I'll be stuck for a bit, the automatic cover hasn't been installed however I finally received the brackets and installed them. I was considering a larger stone like...

    Automatic Pool Cover Lid for Pavers - Ideas for cover to hold pavers

    Here's a picture with measurements, hope it's visible. The leading bar will rest just on the left of the pool edge/lip at 23.5" from the brackets. If we place pavers/coping to the track edge it'll be 19.25" of material. I think the atlas brackets...

    Automatic Pool Cover Lid for Pavers - Ideas for cover to hold pavers

    Thanks for the input bmoreswim. I like the idea of using a larger coping unit to fit on it, however the the issue then is the box is still pretty wide to the pool edge, it's around 22-24" (whilst at the sides it's around 14.5"). I wouldn't want a wider coping (more than the 12.3" the current...
