Hey all, I have an Intex saltwater system. We are going on year 4 with it and I am well aware it is near the end of its life. I’ve watched YouTube videos and read other forums on this issue but need additional advice. Noticed that the service light switched on and unit powered off after...

It’s almost pool season! We noticed that rust had started forming on our above ground pool’s verticals uprights at the end of the summer last year. It was only about 3 months that it was up... Does anyone know what we could use to prevent/stop the rust? I was thinking...

Because of the iron, the pool is now tinted green. We have had this happen before a long time ago when I was young in our 12' pool. My mom told me to put socks on the intake to collect the iron. Oh it's collected lots of iron alright! I have used 4 socks and switched them out/rinsed them at...

I just got my test kit this morning + salt strips. We have had the salt in for 2 days now. Last night we added the CYA (which was all dissolved this morning) and I also added the Chlorine tonight.

Alright so I have a few questions about the two TF-100 and Taylor K-2006 test kits. At the moment, I don't have enough time to order the TF-100 test kit. There is just no buts about it. I've looked at many other test kits and the chart on here comparing the few different test kits. Overall the...

Hello! Our new pool is filling up right now! I was just wondering.. how do I start with the chemicals? Our pool will be SWG and now I just need to know how much chemicals I need to add. Should I test the water once there is only salt in the pool and put the info into the pool calculator for the...

Hello! I recently just purchased a pool. Right at the moment I am sitting outside watching my father work away at leveling ground for our pool. We just tampered class five mix and we will be getting a load of sand tmrw. Our pool was ordered the other night and was just shipped. We are now...
