We just purchase the Typhoon and so far so good the kids love it. We have it in grey.

So I just went and talked to one builder and he said they hate building in the fall and waiting until spring to do the deck because water get down under the vinyl liner and will make the liner float? and that water will have to be drained. I do not know if he is just saying this to talk another...

I have a question should I have the pool built in the fall and do the concrete, fence and landscaping in the spring or should I do all of it in the spring. Now with this in mind I have a black lab who will get all muddy during the construction phase we do have an invisible fence right now and...

No I do not but my pool company in one of the biggest in the area and has only done 1 automation control system so far and he told me they are still working the bugs out so I do not know if i trust them to do it with it anyways. And the money I will save I would be ok with it.

Guys I am having an IGP installed in late august on a budget. I really want some automation and have been looking at the jandy IAqualink. I have been reading threads of people who upgraded their old aqualink system on their own with no problem. My question is can I install a system by myself...

So we bought a new house and it did not come with a pool and we had one at our old house and my 2 kids lived in it all summer. We are missing and want to put in another pool. We have to put in an inground this time which of course cost more money. Our budget says we have to wait but I dont...

I do not have a vacuum regulator (first time hearing of this) what size filter should I be using for my pool?

I backwash weekly, and yes i have noticed lower pressure, the pressure gauge runs higher then it used to, I changed the sand last year (sand was only 3 years old) thinking it was to dirty or something. It is a very large above ground at 30' and 24k gallons do you think i should put in another...

Yes I have an Eyeball and i have it going straight out right now but no matter how i turn it, that one side just does not get enough circulation

I have a 30' round 54" deep pool roughly 24,000 gallons. the problem I am having is that the whole pool is not circulating, the far end (away from the pump) turns green first and you can just tell it does not get any circulation at all. I was thinking about getting a different pump or...
