I currently have a DE pool filter that my local pool supplier has been telling me needs replacing. Recently my multiport valve has been leaking water into the waste/drain pipe fairly significantly so I'm looking to replace the filter. The local pool supplier only installs Waterco pool filters...

I have a pool leak which I think is caused by either the pool pump or the filter. Things that indicate this: I've done a bucket test a few times and the water level varies quite a lot after a day. With the pool pump running, there is about a 1.5 to 2cm difference in water levels. When the pump...

The previous owners relocated the pump, filter and chlorinator in the subfloor/crawl space. The brick wall near the pool pump is losing its mortar. I'm wondering whether the liquid chlorine and the presence of all the pool equipment is affecting it. The other issue is the potential dampness and...

Hello, I have a liquid chlorine feeder the previous owner installed before I moved in (moved in 3 months ago). The feeder turns on and the dial rotates, but I'm not sure that it's working properly. The inlet tube that sucks the liquid chlorine from the barrel has air bubbles in it while the...

My pump's been acting a little weird. Before water was completely full in the pump, but I've noticed it drop below halfway to even 1/4 full and it only primes to about 80%. Is 80% considered fine or is this something that needs to be rectified? I've linked to a video of the pool pump at about...

Hello from Sydney Australia! I'm the owner of a new house that came with a pool, and I've been slowly getting my head around how to maintain it! Over the last few weeks I've learnt about my pump, have given it a backwash, refilled it with DE (without wearing a mask as I didn't realise how...

I purchased a new Dolphine Active X6 recently and noticed the back tire was a bit damaged. I'm not sure if this is ok or not but wanted to check before I use it as I paid $2.5k AUD for it.
