I had to purchase a new pump this year, and in picking one I was assuming a 2 HP is just going to be be better than our old 1.5 HP and work faster. I went to find a reducer that would go from the required 1 1/2” schedule 40 or flex pipe inlets and outlets in the new pump to a standard hose size...

We had a disastrous event with our liner that resulted in a completely flooded back yard. :rolleyes: So we are prepping the dirt base for a new liner. (Had to do some major sand base filling and repair... it was BAD). Anyway wanting to get the new liner ASAP. Any recommendations for good...

So, this isn’t my pool but a friend posted this as a sales pitch for a natural/ healthier alternative to chlorine. I’m curious about the ingredients and how this would effectively sanitize the pool, so I thought I’d run it by the chemistry whizzes here! The pool doesn’t look tfp clear! but I’m...

I’m having a hard time finding the correct spider gasket for my jacuzzi laser sand filter. I was assembling everything to get it up and running and without even turning the pump on yet there was a constant stream of water leaking from the waste hose when my valve was positioned in the “filter”...

Every day I get these dirt patches and lines on the bottom of my pool. Whether it had been used or not. I vacuum the whole thing, and not even 10 seconds after I finish there is another one!! Is this normal? Or is there something wrong with my sand filter? I appreciate any help or experience...

Hi from Vermont! I'm just getting ready to get the winter cover off our above ground pool. I might have missed my window, weather wise, because we are in for a LOT of rain in the next couple weeks, and I probably should have done it sooner. My water is 55 degrees now... so I really want to...

We bought our house in July with an existing above ground pool (aka swamp). I finally started tackling the thing after feeling encouraged from reading threads on TFP and learning all the things here. So thanks! So, I've been SLAMming the pool for a good 2+ weeks now, and it has slowly been...
