So i am losing water after i covered my pool for the winter. Back in a june we had a massive storm and i ended up with my neighbors shed in my pool. I drained everything, removed the shed and refilled. Didn't lose anything all summer or early fall. Cover has been on just under a month and...

Long story short the pool store where i bought it are a bunch of aholes. 1st batch of rails were bent and scratched, then they said that pool was a closeout and i have no options. Looking for opinions on how the white rails look on it. I'm not a fan of it, wife said just finish the pool. I...

After 4 years the poles on my Intex were starting to look like an old Datsun, i took it down in the fall and had a few spots that had completely rusted through. I am looking for opinions on this pool, the price is right as long as it's not total junk...

I bought a Hayward EC40 from craiglist a few months ago, the pool looks amazing from it. Whenever i bump it i get about 5 seconds of cloudy water back into the pool. I am going to take it apart this weekend, what should i look for that could be the cause of this?

Just ordered a solar panel. Its going to be on a garage roof about 30ft from the pump. What is the best pipe or hose to use. It will be mounted on a fence for most of the run. I'm trying to stay away from using too many 90° turns

a friend of mine needs a new sand filter tank, i have an extra 16" intex tank, his pump is a single speed 2HP, is that too much pump for the tank? The intex pump that comes with this setup is .95HP i believe

I've always added a cup of DE to my sand filter to get the sparkly water, once i add it my water pressure drops a small bit from the return and i usually have to backwash every 2-3 weeks. I plan on adding a solar heater to the pool with about a 12 rise where the panel will be, i'm worried that...

I installed an 18'x48" intex last year, i put pavers under each leg, over the course of the summer the legs have moved off the pavers, i am in the process of draining the pool to get the legs back on them. My question is should i move the paver to where the pool wants the leg or where i want...

From all the reading i have done i have not come up with a solution on how to properly winterize my 18'x48" Intex. I've read some people don't drain water and just plug the holes, some drain water below lowest hole. And with covers i know i can't use a conventional since the frame can't...

Some pics of our 18x48 install. Nothing like picking a few 95+ degree days to do it on

I put in an 18' x 48" Ultra Frame pool in the end of June for the kids. I have a few questions and observations. I am not new to the pool world as i was my parents pool boy for many years and we used baquacil when it first came out and had a DE filter and things have changed a bit since then...

I installed an Intex Ultra Frame 18' x 48" 3 weeks ago and wanted to upgrade to a sand filter. I was deciding between the intex sand 2650 and the Hayward VL. Has anyone used the Hayward and have anything opinions on it? I'm guessing the quality is better then the intex.
