    Leaking Light for 3 years!

    My dad has been on this 3 year journey of trying to fix a leak in his inground pool. First we got a new liner, then the liner company said the light was leaking and fixed it and it kept leaking. Eventually the liner company hired a diver and said the light could still be leaking and fixed it...

    Pool Leak Driving My Dad Insane

    Hi, my dad has been trying to find a leak in his inground vinyl liner pool for what feels like years now. Last year I helped him buy a brand new liner, because we thought the liner was the issue. Well sure enough the leaking continued. The company that installed the liner was sure they...

    Do I really need to change the water every 3-6mos?

    I have a 2000 gallon swim spa that has had the same water in it since end of last summer. I know the recommended water change is 3-6months but typically any recommendation for that says the water will get too far out of balance and nasty and require it. The thing is, my spa is crystal clear...

    Massive Drop in Salt and CYA - What Should I believe?

    Hi all, so last year when I was brand new to my pool everyone here was extremely helpful in getting me on my feet. I had a persistent issue with high CYA (110) and I took the advice of members here and installed a SWG and everything worked out great. This year I did the opening myself and...

    New Swim Spa Water Source, Water smells Odd

    Hi, I recently moved my 2000 gallon swim spa to a new house and filled with the well water and after going through the chemical startup procedure, the water has an odd smell to it. My old house was city water, my new house is well water with more mineral content. My spa at my old house...

    Will This Modified Ascorbic Acid Treatment Work?

    My new to me pool with a 12 year old vinyl liner was quite stained with iron (probably from using well water to fill/top off) and the stairs were really bad. I crushed up some vitamin-c pills crushed in a sock and was blown away that it worked like a magic eraser on the steps, with hardly any...

    SWG and other questions

    I recently opened my new pool and asked the guy who opened it about a salt water generator and he told me to stay away, he said my pool wasnt built for salt and that the fittings for things like the ladder and hand rail would corrode and possibly even the steel walls (it's a liner pool). I...

However, my water sits...

    Swim Spa - How to Handle Cover and Spa Leaking.

    Hi, I recently purchased a 15ft Tidal Fit EP-15 Swim Spa. This swim spa has one of the 2 piece covers that you fold and take off both sides of the spa. I need to build a deck around 2 sides of the swim spa (one of the long sides and one of the short sides) and am trying to figure out how to...
