    dolphin E10 winds around ladder/stairs

    I have a Dolphin E10, that I use in a 24 foot Aurora salt water Above Ground Pool. I have a ladder that is open on the back. The Dolphin E10 is good cleaner, as long as you have the basket that collects fine particles/silt. However, it constantly wraps itself around the ladder. Does anyone have...

I have the valve wide open on it and the ball only goes up to maybe 2 or three and the chlorine level will come all the way down to about .5 if I don't have chlorine to the pool. I have looked at pics of others installations and...

    Found Liquid Cholrine in Texas

    Over the past years since I started using BBB I have not been able to find liquid Chlorine at all, and Bleach was cheap enough anyhow. Now, with the bleach going to smaller bottles, the cost has gone up and I have had a more difficult time keeping my pool clean for some reason. For any of...

    Question about ph color

    I have not kept up with my spa like I should. I mean, I shock it regularly and the bromine level is okay, but when I checked the ph tonight, the water never did turn red, it was yellow like the bromine color. I redid the test, adding 5 drops of the 0014 to the test kit and it was very yellow...

    High pH in Bromine hot tub (stand alone)

    Now that I am getting my pool under control, I am considering using BBB for my hot tub. However, most hot tub dealers recommend Bromine instead of Chlorine. They say it is more stable in the hot water. I did start checking my bromine and pH myself tonight. My pH is extremely high. I was...

    How much extra reagent?

    I am ordering a test kit so that I will be ready to convert at any time that I run out of chems or have a water problem. What extra reagent should I order with the test kit, in consideration that I may use a lot of some of them in the conversion process.

    Winterize or leave open?

    My pool store told me that he thought it was better to just maintain the pool through the winter instead of spending the money on a cover every year and the winterizing chemicals. He said that a stable pool would not take that much in chemicals during the winter to keep it up and it would...

    I live in the Dallas/Fort Worth Texas area. This is my third summer to have a pool and I have been using baquacil or Mareva's revatop products. This summer I have had a lot of problem with algae and my pool store told me if I killed the algae and then used optimizer plus or baquacil's Endure...
