I've been building today and I am pretty darn proud of myself! I have been wanting a place to put things by the pool pretty much since I got the pool. (Probably close to 10 years now!) Most of the time I'm by myself and I have a combination of a drink and a book, my cell phone (in a waterproof...

Hey all, I have a sand filter question. (all my info is in my signature) the filter holds 100# of sand. I recently changed from intex fittings/plunger valves to hayward fittings. I know I have better flow than I used to have and I think my filter may be filtering better because of it. What I...

I wonder if anyone has tried this. When searching the forum for "hard plumb intex skimmer" I just get all the hard plumbed intex pools with hayward skimmers. I don't want to lower my water level so I have ruled out a through wall skimmer. I just noticed the hose I use to connect my skimmer to...

Drip. Drip. Drip. This is the part where I ask myself "why couldn't you just leave well enough alone?" I had a working setup. I had plungers that were annoying but no leaks. Now I have this... Hayward return/inlet fitting. Black gasket thing on each side. I tightened it as much as I can...

I've read about adding D.E. to my filter to help filter out the fine stuff that my sand filter doesn't want to get and if I remember correctly it says to do 1/4 cup at a time, mixed with water, slowly poured into the skimmer. Wait a little while then add another 1/4 cup at a time until pressure...

Hello All, I have been here reading for months and finally ordered and received my TF-100. My inital test results are from Wednesday. FC 5 CC .5 PH 7.2 TA 70 CYA 30 I did the chlorine test in the evening 7:30pm so I decided to rush in the A.M before work to see if I passed the OCLT At...

<edit> I changed the title of my thread because the spoon issue is resolved, but it seems they don't like multiple threads here which would technically be discussing the same thing and all my testing results are here so I figured I'd stick to this thread. Hopefully that is acceptable. ...
