Wondering if a DIY build with a kit from somewhere like Pool Wharehouse is a good option vs the cost of paying a pool store to install. Can I really save enough to make the headache worth it, or is it as straight forward as Pool Wharehouse makes it seem?

Planning stage, decided on an inground liner pool. We have a decent size family, 4 sons, two are married, three grankids so far. I'm thinking 30'x60' with a tanning ledge at th shallow end and steps on both sides of the shallow end....maybe seats in the sides of the deep end, or corners of the...

Ground is grey clay (crawfish love it) deep south Arkansas. What would be our best choice, and a rough estimate for complete install including concrete decking surounding the pool. Weve previously had a 32ft x 54" AGP that ended in disaster when the wall rusted behind liner, busted, and...

After a major catastrophe with an AGP a couple years back, we've decided to replace with an in-ground pool. Considering a 20x40 vinyl liner with stamped or coated concrete decking. If anyone in South Arkansas (El Dorado area) has built within the last five years, I'd love to hear from you...

So, we had an AGP for two seasons until the wall rusted between liner and wall at skimmer and split, wrecking the whole pool. That pool was installed by an installer hired by the pool store we purchased it from. We went last season with no pool and now we're ready for another. The pool we had...

Bought this pool in May 2011. 32' x 52" Have had crystal clear water for the two years thanks to the info from this site and the pool calculator. My wife went out to put bleach in yesterday and this is what she found. I'm just thankful it happened when no one was in it or near it. Looks like...

I have leaks at the skimmer and around the shaft on the pump. Can I order some form of gasket kit to replace the gasket/gaskets around the skimmer? What size pump would be best for a 32'x54" round above ground? Do they make a two speed 115v pump?

I live in deep South AR, right on the LA line, we do get some nights down to around 20 but they are few and far between wtih the day temps usually rising above freezing afterwards. Do I need to do all of the steps for winterizing or can I just clean, algae shock, and cover? Will I still need...

So I tested my tap water and this is what I got: FC: 0.0 CC: 0.0 pH: 7.8 TA: 220 Don't know if this is good or bad, just thought I'd throw it out there and see what someone can tell me.

FC - 7 CYA - 50 pH - 7 TA - 140 CH - 70 I originally had a TA of 220 and a ph of about 8. I've added MA and dropped my pH and TA. I've been aireating but my pH hasn't really risen any. By the pool cal it says I need 15lbs of Borax. is this correct or is there a better way, like just...
