Usually with liners there is a declining value on the warranty. 100% covered the first year, 80% covered the second year 70% the third year 60% to 50% the fourth year that kind of thing. So if he is wanting to replace the liner, you may end up paying half of that replacement cost. I would...

Recently, since I got back from vacation on the 28th of June, I have been experiencing the same...My water is fine as it holds overnight...but with the extreme heat we have been having here in the midwest and that they are having out east...there really wouldn't be a surprise to see a FC loss of...

T but does you husban know that he can swim at anytime day or night? If he does he has you to thank for that. My wife and kids appreciate the fact that they know they can swim anytime...because i am on top of it. I was telling my beer brewing buddy on the fourth about pool chemistry and beer...

Pololgirl and Bama, Thanks for the razzzzzzz, I deserve it... :mrgreen: It sure is nice to have people come out of the pool and say my eyes don't even sting like normal...That is the biggest compliment I could get! Leaves are inevitable in my yard...I have an 80-90 yearold sugar maple in my...

When you go back down...look for signs of plants growing through the liner. Where are the leaks in relation to the return line where you put in the granuals? I don't know if that is the cause, but if you can narrow it down it might help you to decide how to proceed. It isn't the seam between...

Let's look at some obvious questions first. Are the holes on the sides or on the bottom...you asked about bugs from underneath, so I assume on bottom. What was your previous method of sanitizing your pool...is there something you were doing in sanitization that might have degraded the liner...

It is funny how people are just accepting of potential problems, let alone complete full blown algae blooms. Last week we got back from vacation and the kids swam on Monday while I was back at work...DW checked the chlorine with the regular test kit, and it tested ok. She pulled the solar...

What kind of pool do you have...what kind of liner. Is it an intex quick set? Need to know more...

Don't ya just love it when people compliment you about your crystal clear pool water. I find people are always impressed with how little time and money I spend on my pool. THey always say things like I would love to have a pool but I don't have the time to spend on it. Or isn't upkeep and...

I like to run sprints in my pool, and as such my feel slip quite a bit. Reef shoes are one way to go...they have a soft rubberized sole that should not damage the bottom of the pool or the liner. But Other than that I don't know what you could do.

I get mine from the local Great Escape pool store. It used to be more expensive, but now it is not so bad.

Agree with what FPM says...she and I have been doing this with our pools for years...her more than I as this is only my third summer...but I go on vacation 2 or three times per summer and have been gone for as much as 13 days. I shock up to my shock level circulate for an hour or two and then I...

Probably no more than $30 dollars. Maybe $50...You gotta love that Pool store guy...uh...Ripoff Artist! To be safe when draining the pool only go down by a third, then fill, let it circulate for a while and then test. Then start the process all over again and drain down another third of the...

I get 12.5 % liquid chlorine, and I pay 2.40 per gallon...I like it a lot, because for that price I can maintain my chlorine at 26 to 32 ounces a night At this rate I go through one gallon per week as long as I am not having to shock. I just got back from vacation and had to do some shocking...

I had an N-2 which was a cartridge sanitizer and just disconnected it. Didn't want it didn't need it...BBB works just fine!...And I have gone on vacation for two weeks and never worried about my pool and needing to add anything while I was gone.

The first minute of the video by this huckster in the red hat...says that you have to add the algecide as you are adding water to your new pool to protect the water until the permasalt system brings the water up to the proper copper level...Bells and Whistles need to be going off right...

interesting that you say you only have to buy chemicals for the season for what you need. The only thing I have purchased this year is two boxes of borax, and two cases of liquid chlorine every two to three weeks. What could be easier. My kids swim without goggles, and no one's eyes sting...

The worst thing that ever happened to Hockey was the NorthStars Leaving MN. I hated the NorthStars...Dino Cicerelli...what a Goon!!! but it was a great rivalry between them and the hawks.

Redwings...Thanks...No one knows this about me...but if there weren't a Hockey team in Chicago...I'd be a Redwings Fan!!!Sssshhhh...Don't tell anyone! :cheers: :party:

What time did you guys get home? I was up til about 1;30 watching the celebrations...I wish I could have been out with a crowd last night...But I would have been useless this morning and I gotta be on my game at work. What a game...I missed my yehaaaa moment because I was so stunned by the...

Nosey neighbors??? My wife and I have thought about something similar. We were thinking about getting some light cloth or canvas in a blue or something like that and weaving it through the uprights of our security fencing. I have noisy neighbors to the west and a two story house to the...

What do you mean by privacy fence...what exactly are you looking for. There are several types of security fencing that attaches to your uprights via screws and brackets. But they are not privacy fences...they are meant to keep people out of your pool.

Just post a sign!!! You could put a cool sign with lighting bolts on it...that'll catch people's attention. :mrgreen:

I don't expect things to be easy in Philly...Infact...I would park across the line in Jersey just to be safe...My Uncle is Charging $100 to park on his lawn...$200 to keep your car from being scratched...$300 to keep your car from stolen and $400 to keep it from being blown up...It might be...

You'll See! :mrgreen:

The difference is accuracy...you never really know just how much free chlorine you have in your pool...The FAS-DPD tells you the exact ppm. with the DPD you are really just guessing because everyone see's the colors just a little differently. I have both...I use the DPD on a daily basis just...

FPM...ask me sometime about the last time the Hawks were in the stanley cup finals...more importantly game 4...You don't know how important Hockey is... :thequeen: Beave

Byfuglien will have his work cut out for him...Pronger is no patsy...He is tough and Buf will have to expect his biggest test yet...I expect Buf to try to get under Pronger's skin and get him to take some stupid penalties...like he did with the Sundienes in Vancouver...he got under their skis to...

he was amazing wasn't he...But what about that guy...Duncan Keith...The man is a Hockey God...7 teeth lost and he logs 30 minutes of game time after losing 7 teeth!...That is old school Hockey!!! Stitch him up doc...get him back out on the ice...What do ya mean you don't recommend him...

Nope nope nope nope and nope!!!Ben Eager stays put... :hammer: :party: Here come the Hawks the mighty Black Hawks... I predict...Hawks in 5! :cheers:
