    Liner replacement ??

    We are having our 18' x 36' liner replaced in the upcoming weeks. I have estimates that range from $3200 - $3500. Narrowed it down to a very highly recommend smaller local pool co. who has done many liners in our area for about 25 years . Have seen many install photos from them and offered...

    Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club

    Re: Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club Thanks , thats what makes it a bit confusing . Both the 300 and 300i appear to have the same bluetooth capabilities , so I think the 300i must just have more options for cleaning times/cycles , maybe weekly scheduling differences too ...

    Re: Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club Thanks guys .......... What are the differences between the 300 and the 300i versions ? Are there different levels of Bluetooth controls ? I would hate to get the 300 , and find out only the 300i has the remote control steering option...

    Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club

    Re: Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club I am in the process of having a new liner installed and decided its time to upgrade the Robot. Using an Aquabot, and while it works fine, I am getting tired of dealing with the messy bottom bag system, and the unit is almost impossible...

    Looking for a vac any advice

    Have you considered a robot ? They are completely independent of your pool filtration system, so you wont have to worry about getting the correct flow rate out of your pump. I just got a new robot am I am thrilled with it. I wanted an easy to use auto pool vac that "anyone" (wife,kids) in the...

    Pool Vacuum - Aquabot Junior v Manual Vacuuming

    Just got my Aquabot Junior today. Unpacked everything and read through the instructions quickly. Strangely the instructions are very vague and cover more of the other Aquabot models than the Junior. It still made sense but some of the features that the other bots have, the JR just...

    Pool Vacuum - Aquabot Junior v Manual Vacuuming

    I dont get any large items or branches falling in the pool. Mostly leaves, the size of half a dollar bill at the largest, and not many at that size anyway. . Mostly its smaller stuff scattered around. From the videos of the AB Jr I saw online, I think it should work for us. At least I hope so...

    Pool Vacuum - Aquabot Junior v Manual Vacuuming

    As for manual vacs ....... I like the ones that are roller style with built in brushes. If I use my all brush style it tends to stick to the bottom while vacuuming due to the suction power. The roller one just pushes around easily and sucks everything up with out making a mess. It does have some...

    Pool Vacuum - Aquabot Junior v Manual Vacuuming

    Cant you just run it a 2nd cycle if it missed anything ? Also I heard you can put it on an appliance timer, and when the timer switches back on the bot will start -up again with out having to manually press the button??? That would be great for a once a day cycle if it works. I just ordered...

    CYA 0 when opening pool.

    No CYA at pool opening I have the same thing going on. CYA was 0 when I opened the pool 2 weeks ago, but my CC's were also 0 from the start. I am slowly trying to build up the CYA using some hockey pucks (because I have a bunch of them), and adding CYA to a sock in my filter basket. So far I...

    CYA Sock Method ?

    Yep ........... 3 filters. All plumbed with valves so they could be run one at a time, or all together............. crazy ! I already cut out the DE filter . I prefer the Sand filter, so I kept that , and also kept the cartridge filter incase I need it down the road. Actually I am running the...

    CYA Sock Method ?

    Thanks ! Also forgot to mention, no heater (besides the solar cover, lol) so is the possible acidic damage reduced enough so I dont have to worry about it. I am also assuming that the pool has been running on tri-tabs for years now directly in the skimmer due to having a bucket of tabs still...

    My $25 auto chlorinator DIY project

    I have been using a similar system on my hot tub for over a year now. I have been in the saltwater reef tank hobby for quite some time, and automation is all the rage in reef tanks. So I thought, why cant some of that tech be used for a hot tub or a pool ? Just have the corrosive bleach to deal...
