lol..that's awesome..i will do that..i need to de-stress so i'm goinf ro a week to....the lake..more water..argghhhhh:) see you in awhile!

first, it appears my autopilot power supply may have crapped out yesterday..i still have green lights, no scale, salts good but no chlorine output. then today, i turned off valves and filter for some reason..and forgot about it while i made supper and started watching tv..decided to go outside...

Thanks Sean for the reply. Got your email and responded.

i read on another post here re: problems with lack of chlorine and an autopilot sean's comment about potentially a blown cell fuse..the question i have is if the cell fuse was blown, would this then show up as a fault. i have the autopilot soft touch that gives the led lights if errors. sorry if...

the 1/2 hp whisperflo is very close to the equivalent of the calculations mas did for your current pump.

AHH..so that was a new one then...i thought..Dang, that's good looking for a 20+ yr old filter:)

ps- is that the new filter in the picture which would explain my appearance comment..but then, i would be wondering why you're asking if you've already bought the stuff:)

any particular reason you're replacing the filter? from an appearance standpoint, it looks great. mine is 27 years old, took it apart last year and laterals are in excellent shape, casing, valve is in great shape. i took out the sand to remove and inspect the laterals and loaded it with zeobrite...

i have a pump with 2 inch outs and ins and 1.5 inch existing plumbing on a 27 year old pool..works fine:)

low yield thermonuclear warhead will fix that:)

i wish mine was a 12mm bought at intheswim.com. your basic dark blue cover and it works great.

i agree with waterbear. at the price of a medium weight cover, i could buy one every year if i need to. i'm in my second season with a medium weight and it is standing up well to the wear and tear. when it's off the pool, it goes in shade so i don't pop any bubbles. last winter was the test as...

yep, you're right on that. i have in my records this from one of the their customer service reps: Thank you for your inquiry. In The Swim does not charge any additional fees for orders shipped to Canada, except for shipments sent by truck (slides, heaters, etc). In the case of a truck...

lol..i just realized..you're probably wondering what the heck is he talking about re: ropes...i'll show you a link to a similar thread at the poolforum.com. i'm responding to 2 similar threads re: covers . i posted pics of the slickest cheapest solution to pull a cover onto a pool that i came up...
