I have been struggling with cloudy water and no chlorine due to a combination of shutting off the pump for a couple of days to fix a leak, followed by my pump going bad due to a power brownout. So, I shocked with 3 bags of shock, only to find out there was no free chlorine the next morning...

I know lots of users here mention running their pool pumps only part of the day in order to save electricity. I get that. My Harris pump is 110V and has a three prong plug (I wired it that way since I have a GFI outlet by the pump). My Aqua Rite SWG control panel also has a three-prong plug...

I replaced my Hayward T-Cell-15 last month, and I didn't throw away the old one, which was nine years old and worn out. Does anyone buy old salt cells to refurbish/rebuild? I know saltsolutions rebuilds cells, and I sent them an email inquiring if they buy old ones. I don't see anywhere on...

I have a Hayward Aqua Rite system, originally installed in 2009, on my 16,000 gallon in-ground pool. I am still using the original T-Cell-15 salt cell. I came back from a short vacation and saw that my water was getting cloudy. I figured that the salt cell finally died. I called Hayward, and...

In-ground vinyl lined pool, installed in 2009. I had a leak, which was getting worse and worse. I bought dye and figured out where the water was leaking - around the return fitting installed on the side of my built-in plastic steps. When I unscrewed the eyeball, the front part of the fitting...

I seem to have a slow leak, and want to figure out where it is. I've read posts about building a line pressure test "stick". I can build one over the winter, but am wondering if anyone has one they don't need and might want to sell. Perhaps someone built one and doesn't own a pool anymore. My...

How much higher should the chlorine level be in a water sample taken directly from the cell (by loosening up the junction and capturing leaking water) or from water taken directly from in front of a return, when the SWG is running? I have a Hayward Goldline Aqua Rite system with a T-15 cell...

I have a Goldline Aqua Rite SWG system, installed in May 2009. It has worked pretty much flawlessly until this year. I tested my water when I opened in May, and added a couple bags of salt to get it to about 3000-3200, based on readings from my test strips. My my Aqua Rite control panel gave me...

I have a solar cover that will need replaced next spring. I think I'll try a clear bubble cover rather than the blue one I have now. I'm looking for suggestions regarding the best way to attach the cover to the reel. Are there any attachment kits out there that work well? Any to avoid? Velcro...
