I have an intellicenter and the pool builder setup two modes - pool and spa. When in pool mode water is added to spa and the spa drains are off so that the water overflows from spa to main pool body over spa waterfall. My question - is there an easy way to have a pool_mode1 where it doesn't...

All - I have been here for years and I am on my second saltwater pool in Texas. Both of which have had plenty of rock which tends to do things around pool water over time. I think the best recommendation for any pool with salt is to either steer clear of rock immediately around the pool or...

Hello - I have an intellicenter and an ic40 generator. How do you turn it off when adding salt to the pool? I have been setting the output to 0% when doing it but was wondering if there was a different on/off method rather than having to reset the percentage values. Oh and my pool builder...

Anyone have microbrites in their pool in the north texas area? I have three in my main pool shell now (620sqft) and was wondering if it is going to be enough (gunite is shot already so adding more cost more money and worse yet time). Best way to know is to see another pool in real life...

Anyone concerned about starting a build right now? Wonder how many pool companies have the cash flow/reserves to make it through this. If things keep crashing prices are bound to drop quite a bit. Or not... who knows. Just worried as my dig and first huge payment will be in the next few...

Hello... after 20 years of having someone else's pools in two houses we are building our first pool. Our lot is challenging... and will not be inexpensive to build in....here are some pics from the build we like the best so far... We are moving away from the raised wall at the back side of the...

I am thinking of buying a house that has an area of approximately 44x22 to place a pool. How much space between pool and fences are normally allocated? How much room for runoff swale needs to allocated. Just curious what I could do with the yard.

Is there a way to reuse the jandy valve on the left if I plumb into that section with a swg?. It looks to me like I will need to cut it out on the vertical pipes since the run between the filter and the valve has a bunch of jogs and no place to plumb in the swg. The swg would go into a new...

Hello I am about 2.5 weeks into a new pool finish startup. It is a Wetedge Satin Matrix pebble finish. The pool builder who I contracted did the startup. We had tons of plaster dust the first two weeks which I thought was odd given it is a pebble finish. They basically added acid to target...

Looking for info on how to embed a flickr pic. When I go to their site and click share, two options are embed and html. Here is the embed result <iframe src="https://www.flickr.com/photos/7852778@N06/13802959364/player/" width="640" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen...

Just a impromptu survey. I was looking at buying the Pool Cleaner and was reading the manual. Just like my Barracuda G4 and G3 manuals, the Poolvergnueguen's manual said to remove the cleaner before shocking or when swimmers are in the pool. I never did this with any of my cleaners. I am...

Hello everyone! This is a great site and I love looking at all the builds and remodels. Our pool's plaster needs replaced and the waterfall has a large missing piece so we have signed a contract to repair the waterfall and resurface the pool The waterfall is an interesting one, it is formed...

Ok so we have a white plaster finish now that needs replaced. Our pool gets tons of sun, hits 93-94 degrees when we get a string of 100degree days. My question is, would a light blue like wet edge Luna quartz pacific or Tahoe make the pool get much warmer in the summer? If you are in my...

I am pulling my hair out on this. My pump motor runs 1/2 hour to even 2 hours and then the breaker trips. It doesn't seem hot and this is happening even at night. It is not getting wet. I cleaned the cartridge filter and have made sure that the back-pressure is low. I don't see and clogs...
