Had new liner installed in the fall. Installer left these things in all the corners. Do they need to stay or can I remove them? Some have fallen out.

I plan on building my own bench to sit on top of my automatic pool cover sitting on the pool deck. I got the metal frame kit from the pool cover supplier, but I'd like to see some various ideas on how folks built their pool cover benches.

Just had a new liner put in. Installers left off the thin plastic trim pieces that cover all the ugly screws. Any idea where I can buy replacements?

Got a new liner installed about a month ago. Now with the safety cover on, I’ve been noticing about an inch of water loss per week. Does that seem right? The pool company that installed the liner said that’s normal.

Pool place is replacing my liner. To save money, they said I could drain and remove my old liner. Any advice on this?

I've been considering some solar panels. I don't want to spend a ton. I think I've got a good set up. As you can see from the pic, I've got a small building next to the pool that houses the pumps, etc. The roof of the building faces north on one side, south, on the other. I've got a total...

Has anyone been able to find a fitting that will work for the Rule 1800 pump cover at Lowes or Menards? I need this.... Amazon.com : Rule Replacement Garden Hose Adapter : Boating Bilge Pumps : Patio, Lawn Garden However, $10 seems like a ripoff and I need one quick. 3/4" PVC is too small...

Hello, I’ve tried to do my homework, but I’ve still got questions now that I’m doing my homework on winterizing. Pool water looks great. Previous owner used the 3” chlorine pucks in the skimmer and just tested with the red and yellow drops. I plan on closing per the Pool School info...
