I have an old Doughboy sand filter that I inherited when I bought my house in 2002, for a 24' round AGP. Since that time I've replaced both the pump and the entire pool. The filter seems to be operational, I changed out the sand last summer, all of the valve settings do what they are supposed to...

I just replaced my liner on my 24' x 52" ABG round pool. The water is a murky green, but clear. I have been adding some of the metal out products but they don't seem to be doing anything at all. I brought up the pH to about 7.2 - 7.5 before adding the metal out stuff. I have not added any...

I have a 24' round (52"H) pool and I want to replace the liner and add a foam bottom underneath. The current liner, while only 7 years old, has a slow leak and has gotten very faded. Are there any liner sellers/manufacturers that are considered to be better than the others? I get coupons for...

I'm opening my pool this weekend. This is the first year I'm opening and have the TF-100 test kit. The tester that tests PH and Chlorine side by side is very red for the chlorine (should be a shade of yellow). Is this a result of the closing chemicals that I used last year before putting on the...

Has anyone ever used (or have feedback on) this cover pump? Brute Force Pump Product # 561851 [attachment=0:281mcb4r]561851.jpg[/attachment:281mcb4r]

Why does some algae make pool water turn totally green, even dark, murky green, while in other pools the algae will just grow on the walls and bottom while the pool water stays clear and blue?

Re: clear green water... TEST UPDATE! So we finally got our new (replacement) 24'x52" AG pool up this past Sunday. It took the next few days to fill it using well water. Added hockey puck tabs to a float dispenser, gallon of liquid shock, pool store PH raiser, pump with sand filter has been...

24'x52" round AGP, j-hook liner, sandy bottom with liner pad. Last night we finally got the liner installed, though it was cloudy and only in the upper 60's. Today sunny and lower 80's and the liner really softened up. I have the shop vac running and the walls look great, but the floor still...

I am in the process of installing a new 24'x52" AG round pool with resin supports. It is going in the same location as the old pool (24'x48" round Doughboy). I will be using a liner pad (Liner Shield) and foam cove. We will basically just rake smooth the sand base because there is no reason to...

Hi all! Attempting first DIY AG 24'X52" pool install. It is going in the same exact spot as the 24'X48" pool we just tore down. I thought this would make the process easier but I am still having a hard time laying down the bottom tracks and joints. I've already placed the 16 patio blocks at...

I am getting ready to replace the 24' round pool that came with the house we bought in 2002. The pool has to be 20 years old by now and the liner was in bad shape, but we ended up buying a whole new pool (same size but 52" deep instead of 48"). Going to try the DIY route... So I have a few...
