I FINALLY decided to purchase another robot (my last one didn't even make it 2 seasons). I called Marina Pool and they recommended the Explorer 30 (it was among the only ones left). This model is best described as a gutless wonder. I opened the box and it had a lemon smell--odd...seems like it...

Hello helpful members! I have a question regarding my suction side pool vacuum. I do have a robot, but I tend to use the suction cleaner through the cooler/colder months. I've always just manually turned it on every day or two. I'd like to set up a program for it to go on its own--but here is...

My Jandy actuator is not working as it was before. Normally, if I wanted to run the cleaner (suction side cleaner) I simply click that button (assigned auxiliary) and it would move the valve and the pump would turn on (same with my waterfall). Now, the valve will move, for example, I click the...

Hey there! We installed our pool a few years ago, and I added a coverstar pool cover to it. Since we have waterfalls, I added a safety switch that prevents the waterfall valve from turning on if the cover is in the "closed" position (obviously to prevent accidentally pressing the waterfall and...

So we already have a robot--I like it just fine, but we wanted the Kreepy Krauly shark to live in the pool for winter and have it set up for automatic cleaning. We have a suction side dedicated line and a VS pump. So we hooked up the hose and when we turn on the pump to try and determine the...

So we received our Pentair remote, and hooked it up. It seems to be working fine--other than now my screed shows "Lo-T" as a circuit and while I cant recall what it showed previously--it was not that. Now our valves are no longer working with the unit or the remote--they do work manually...

we're new first time pool owners--owner built pool--so there is no one to "call". We are cleaning out the filter basket (of the pump) and I'm sure we're missing something totally obvious, so don't laugh :-) Our pool is simple--no spa etc... when we try to refill the basket the water just...

We are getting close! Concrete starts Monday. We are interested in doing a stamped concrete around our pool and decking (a simple stamp--like a fractured slate pattern). We do NOT want any sealer, so it it wont be slick etc...I know that changes the look a bit, but we're going for low...

We're doing an owner build, and putting in a Coverstar encapsulated track (mounts to beam NOT the underside of the coping). So I guess I'm totally reinventing the wheel here...I'm doing a raised (gunite) wall with a water feature that runs along the back 2/3 of the pool. The cover installers...

We are under construction. This site has been super helpful, I appreciate reading over tips and things others have done. So, we've never had a pool...and we have no pool building skills to speak of...but sure, why cant we do it ourselves? :-) Our friend designs DIY pools for people all over...
