    Intellivalve Dilemma

    Here is a video explaining my issue. Figured it would be easier to do that than try to type it out. Basically...the intellivalve when stopped at the limit for the right side going to the spa, it doesn't quite come far enough. So a little water is going to the spa when in pool mode. Not...

    Looking for Microbrite Alternatives

    Looking for someone who has actually successfully replaced their microbrite lights with another brand. Pool was built in 2019 and I had 2 of the 4 lights replaced under warranty before it ran out. I'm down to 3 lights working now. These things are seriously a POS...I rarely ever even turn...

    Leslie's Salt Update?

    I have always used Leslie's bags of salt and have had no issues over the years. We have gotten a metric ton of rain over the past few months and I've gone through all my bags.

    Intellivalve disassembly

    Has anyone here ever taken one of these apart? Any tips or things to look out for? Both of mine have previously been replaced under warranty, but now one of the new ones is acting up again. I think it's allowing water to come through both directions somewhat, even when it's completely closed...

    3-Way Valve on Spa Blower Air Line

    I am looking for a way to regulate the amount of air being introduced by my spa blower. In my research I have read that putting a 3 way valve to divert some of the air out of the pipe (note: I am talking about diverting some of the air, NOT trying to restrict the air flow) can help dial in the...

    SWG FC in Winter

    Just have a quick question.. I'm in Texas, so I will not be closing my pool, however...the SWG will shut down for several months and I'll use liquid chlorine. During this time, should I continue on with the recommended FC for SWG pools? Or switch over to the Non-SWG numbers found on the chart...

    New Pool Build, Yet Another in DFW

    Hi all... I've been lurking around for a while but I still have a ton to learn. Never owned a pool or built one...so this is new territory for me. A little background...we were thinking about possibly moving because my daughter is only 5 and hasn't started public school yet. She's currently...
