Hello... Someone asked this same question nine years ago, so I figure it's reasonable to ask it again. I'm looking to refurbish all or part of my gunite pool. How much depends on cost and what is in critical need of being done. The previous query resulted in two suggestions: Family Pools and...

I've been trying to search the forums, and things aren't working the way I'd have hoped/expected. I'm trying to search for words in postings for a particular forum. I'm viewing the forum and in the search bar type something like: recommend. In the pull-down I choose This Forum. I get results...

I need an opinion. I just hope I can provide enough information so the assembled wise folks here can form one (or two). My signature has the details of my pool configuration. The initial estimate to resurface the pool, replace the tiles and the coping was a Really Big Number. So I asked about...

This might be a dumb question, but there are lots of not-dumb people here, so... I've got a simple rectangular solar cover and reel. Most of the time when I reel it in, the cover rolls up kind of evenly. But lately, it seems it's always creeping to one side of the reel or the other. It gets so...

Greetings Wise Pool Peoples! Just when I thought I'd gotten all the info I needed to balance my pool, I have a quandary on my hands. History: The Pool People opened the pool a week ago. I have a loop-lock cover, so in the fall the water level is brought below the input jets, and snow and...

Hello... I'm new here... and really glad that you're here too... 'cause I could use some help. Backstory: I bought my house with the pool almost 20 years ago... for many years, maintenance was easy, just adjusting pH, adding chlorine and using chlorine tablets to maintain chlorine. Then, a few...
