    Leaking pump

    I just watched this video and took it apart to this level. Is it possible that these are not, not, the two seals that are leaking? To me it looks like on the motor. Does that even make sense? https://youtu.be/XEpEO7sJ4Cs

Funny note: Neighbor says she's allergic to chlorine (not doctor verified)...so they have a "SWG as that doesn't use chlorine."...

    Opening Pool & Solar Cover

    My cover can stay on for 4-5 days. I might test once a week gallon of 10% every few days and that’s it. This site has helped me understand my pool so much that that’s all it takes.

    Escaped the algae

    Might be able to google one. I had my wife in the pool and me on the deck. Haul up slowly, let water drain keep pulling. Looked at today and green is almost gone due to the strong bleach solution I added. I'm sure there is more in the sand but I'm happy.

    Escaped the algae

    Pulled the steps out early and decided to pull the handles off, basically 50% disassembly. Wow. Tube handles FILLED/covered with algae. Shocked I was able to maintain the pool with virtually no issues. scrubbed what I could. Flushed. Filled what I could with high percentage bleach soln.
