Ill post some pictures and thanks for the link on deep cleaning. On the sand I thought I read somewhere that the sand becomes more and more rounded and less effective as a filter over time... then again now that I'm thinking about it I may have confused that with the abrasive used in water jet...

I'm not really sure how old our pool is but It's probably 15-20 years at least. Recently my timer gave up the ghost entirely. I can still manually turn the pump on and off but even the contacts for that are sometimes iffy, IE have to turn it on and off a couple times. However that could also...

I'm pretty sure this was a non LED and not at all confident it did not leak. The company that replaced the liner did less than stellar work so it would not surprise me to find out that they light leaked as well.

I believe that the entire pool is on a single circuit/Breaker coming from the house. The pump is still working so I do not think the GFI is popped. I did not see any additional GFI breakers at the pool although maybe there is one in the junction box. Light is in the pool and yes I don't turn...

We have an in ground pool. I had the light apart once and I believe it is a standard 120V screw in bulb. Last year we had the linear replaced and they replaced the light. This spring I turned it on and it worked. the next time I turned it on...nada. It's not like we had the light on all the...

I wanted to thank everyone for the help. I got all the parts I needed from InyoPools. I replaced the Lid and the Lid seal. Figured out I had a pretty significant leak at the inlet as well. There was no union so I had to cut the pipes off after the shut offs to the skimmer and pool drain and...

What's the difference between the typicial PVC pipe unions and a "Pump" unions? Is it just that one end screws into the Pump? Would installing the union further out and having a connector, pipe, union be an issue? I'm only asking because I think I might have a regular 2" union already.

Ok, so I replaced the Lid seal and the lid just to be safe. I'm 90% sure I no longer have a lid leak....still have all sorts of bubbles coming in though. I'm about 80% sure I have a leak at the inlet to the pump. Using the afore mentioned hose test over half of the bubbles disappear while...

Hose idea is a great idea. I'm 100% sure after messing with it a bit more I have at least a Lid Oring seal leak. Just need to find out what size I need and a good place to get it. Any idea what pump this might be?

I definitely have a pump basket lid gasket leak. I need to order a new seal and some lube. Do the lids ever were/Warp etc? I was just looking at it and it's hard to tell just by looking at it. I need to order a seal, Lube for the basket, maybe a lid. I also need to get a new skimmer flapper...

First question is rather easy. Can you give me some ideas for good, reputable, decent priced online pool stores. I've had about a 25% bad experience ordering things thru Amazon. Second question. I've got a problem somewhere and I'm assuming it's a leak. Air builds up in my Sand filter. When I...

The pump is not turning on. I can watch the shaft when I plug it in and it does not rotate. I figured it was either the controller or the pump itself.

It was completely empty. Filled the tub up with a hose. If you have an Air lock does the pump not come on or does it just not circulate water? I broke the connections at the motor, before and after, to try and bleed air off and did not hear any come out.

This is perfect, thanks. I did reach in between impeller and the motor to try and turn the pump. I could not get my fingers in there but was able to get a pair of pliers on the shaft. It did not seem to turn hard, but again, hard to tell due to awkward position, lighting etc. The shaft is...

I don't post here often and I couldn't find the search function so forgive me if this has been previously covered. We have a hot tub. It was here when we bought the house. We haven't used it since we moved in so it's been sitting for almost ~3 1/2 years. Since we are all in quarentine my son...

How difficult is it to install a linear lock? Is it something I could attempt on my own?

They fixed the leak. It was loose screws around the skimmer. We got charged for that as well.

Pictures attached. The second pic shows an area that is coming out with the wedges they used to fix the first place that came out back in.

I can post pic when I get home. We have both a light and drain. The leak they found was around the skimmer due to lose screws. We've Been charged for tightening the screws and putting the liner bad in the track. Two separate chargers ad they happened at different times. Now we have two more...

Spring of this year we had our liner replaced. Since that time we have had one leak and the areas where the top of the linear has pulled out of the retainer. First question I have is that after 30 days post install they want to charge us to fix these types of issues. Is that pretty much...

In what way? Every stain and dye I've looked at recommends to etch the deck prior to staining. You use muraitic acid for etching.
