Hi, It seems my FlowVis was the only thing damaged by the recent Texas freeze. I can see a crack in the body, but the meter itself seems fine. I'm wondering if I could just install the meter into a Jandy check valve body. I know they sell a retrofit kit for this, but I can't find if the...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has put a pergola over their pool or at least part of it? If so, do yo have any pictures and is there anything you would do differently? I also thought about shade sails, but I don't think our HOA architectural committee would approve that. Living in Texas with a...

Hi, Can anyone tell my what causes this dull ring around the water line of my fiberglass pool and how to get rid of it? The pool is just under 2 years old and I have this unsightly ring that I cannot get rid of. I can wipe the scum/oil off with a rag and it comes right off, I can see it on...

Hi, I recently (2 months ago) purchased a new Dolphin Active 30i pool cleaner. The part of the cable that is in the water has developed a sticky/tacky feeling that doesn't seem to come off. Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent the cable from doing this? It's a salt water pool, water...

Hi, I have an Omnilogic with a T-CELL-3 connected. It always indicates lower salt levels than the Taylor salt test. The cell was previously connected to an Aqua Rite and the salt test was always close to what the Aqua Rite indicated. I have cleaned the cell with MA. I have verified that...

Hi, The PH in my pool seems to constantly be at 8.0, even though I keep adding Muriatic acid. It's a fiberglass pool and the manufacturer says it should be between 7.2 and 7.6 to maintain the warranty. I've been using the pool math page to calculate the amount of acid to add. Currently: PH...
