    Pool/Pump problems, very detailed, need help please.

    The pool ALWAYS looks clear, even when chlorine was 0~, same as the picture just above these posts... I've got my ph @ 7.4 right now and chlorine @ 4, my CYA is below 30, it's honestly so low I can't test but if you go through these posts a couple of the mods recommended 4for chlorine, I'll get...

    Pool/Pump problems, very detailed, need help please.

    Hey guys, been awhile. Pool was running fine for the last 8 months or so, run the pump most of the time on low 24/7 because the pool would get cool otherwise (-20C here atm) but the reason I'm posting is somethign weird is going on... I have been monitoring my pool for the last 8 months, it's...

    Phase 2, the SPA

    The spa is below the open pipes in the room. (attached a picture) The room with the pipes is the open door with light on in the back right. My only problematic thought here is that if I fill it and there "is" a leak and I toss the pump in, should I dump it outside or in my pool? I'm just...

    Phase 2, the SPA

    Just fill it with water, have a submersible pump ready and waiting to dump water if needed? My only problematic thought here is that if I fill it and there "is" a leak and I toss the pump in, should I dump it outside or in my pool? I'm just worried about how long it's been down and what could...

    Phase 2, the SPA

    I'm down for a project. I basically just want to be sure the unit doesn' tleak first I would guess right? Why do you feel it will be a big project? I'm fine w/ re-plumbing if required, would it be smarter to run like a second smaller filter or should I run it through my sand filter?

    Phase 2, the SPA

    So I'd like to thank everyone who has helped me so far, hopefully we can continue! This one is a little different than the pool, albeit same thing... Not working lol! When we did the walkthrough, the guy that owned the house said the following : SPA cracked due to over-heating, un-usable...

    Pool Cleaner Suggestions.

    So I have a vacuum that does me no good... It's el-cheap-o, the pad for the skimmer it game with doesn't even line up with my hole, in order to vacuum, and doesn't have enough suck to pull out of the cracks! right now I need to literally dive in myself with the end of the hose and clean my pool...

    TA - 200, is this why my pH seems to creep quickly?

    For aerating, I have a water slide, it's not anything crazy but it will crack the surface.. Would that be enough to consider or would I be better to make one of these contraptions?

    TA - 200, is this why my pH seems to creep quickly?

    So now that I have my pool manageable, still have to epoxy a leak so I am re-filling about 1/2" every 3-4 days (waiting for the pool to warm up lol) but currently while I top up ect, I can keep my CYA ~ 30 and my FC ~ 4 but my pH continuously skyrockets to well over 8.0 every few days, which to...

    Light fix/replacement options.

    I found a location for the bulb and gasket, 70$ for the pair. -_- Will wait until I replace my liner though because the niche needs to be replaced (or at least the cover on the niche?) due to a leak, thank you for the assistance with this and the clarification on everything. :)

    Pool/Pump problems, very detailed, need help please.

    I would still need to wait for it to drop past the light right? I don't have a waterproof flashlight nor the die or a scuba set that I've seen in any of these "leak detection" videos lol.... Blah... I really hope I can fix this. D: If the leak was in the liner, it would be rather simple to...

    Pool/Pump problems, very detailed, need help please.

    I uploaded a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJNWxrHlXmg So basically just let it drain until it stops and it's gotta be there hey lol... Rather unfortunate circumstance yet again, this house is full of surprises... Although, now that you say that... When we moved in, the water was...

    Pool/Pump problems, very detailed, need help please.

    Look for any wet spots where? (Sorry if I'm not thinking outside the box, I just don't understand what you mean) It's an indoor / in ground pool so visually, (in my head) aside from draining the pool and replacing the liner I'm not sure how I could tell. All of the drains are under concrete so...

    Pool/Pump problems, very detailed, need help please.

    Well I definitely have a leak, the bucket dropped about 1/16th of an inch, the outside of the bucket dropped about 1/4... So what's the next step to figure out if it's in the liner or in the pvc or what? It seems small but I don't want it to get worse either...
