Hi all - We've had a heck of a time with our 20x40' vinyl in-ground this summer. Opened Easter weekend and over the next week figured out we had a leak somewhere....water level visibly declining over several days and it's not that hot in Kansas City in April for evaporation. Plugged the...

Hi TFP'ers - We have a 20*40 vinyl in ground pool, replaced the pump 2 seasons ago. Winterized ourselves and opened the pool up Easter weekend this year. Water was high but plugs were in place. Got the system up and running and noticed we were losing about an inch of water a day. Plugged the...

Hi all - Looking at buying our first hot tub and the dealer I like sells bullfrog, D1, and Tuff Spas. The tuff spa is just ugly...sorry. Bullfrog is a great option but lead times are crazy which we all know. I hadn't read or heard much about D1 but their supply chain doesn't seem so impacted...

Hi! Just put our new cover on a few weeks ago (first winter in this house) and this is our first snow/sleet event. There's just half an inch or so of precipitation, but it's very heavy. Cover is now touching the pool water that we dropped below the jets/return....about 14" from the deck surface...

Hi all - Apologies in advance...I know there are a million algae threads. Here's the backstory....we bought the house in October...pool was closed up and hadn't been open for probably 2 years or more. So it was BLACK when we first opened on 5/1. Took us a month to pass the SLAM...but we...

Hi everyone - I have a 20x40' vinyl in-ground pool that was neglected for years before we bought this house. Opened up on May 1 and it was completely black...see horrendous "before." Didn't find this community until a couple weeks ago and we've been religiously SLAMming ever since - after we...
