I am looking to see if I can somehow get a solar cover reel for my pool cover. The shape is so "strange" that it may not be possible. I have to buy a 24x40 rectangle cover and cut it to fit the pool. It is so heavy to pull off everytime we want to use the pool that unfortunately once it's...

I am looking for ways to dispose of the used DE in the Quad Cartridge DE Filter. My equipment pad is all concrete and there is not place to flush, rinse the cartridges off that seems to be good. How are other people capturing the DE during the cleaning of their DE filter and then disposing of...

I had my pool remodeled and a new concrete deck poured about 3 years ago. I was never told to seal the cement deck (my fault for not realizing I needed to) and now the cement is rough and crumbling in high water areas. The areas where the kids get in and out a lot and splash a lot. What can I...

Does anyone have a recommendation for an in pool umbrella for my tanning ledge? Thanks!

I just had my pool remodeled and a new skimmer and plumbing added. Is my Waterway Renegade skimmer missing a float valve? If so, which hole does it go on?

I am replacing my pump with a VS pump and am contemplating replacing my existing DE filtet due to age. I also don't have a good way to backwash it due to location. Do you recommend a sand, cartridge, or DE filter? Any specific brand to stay away from? Thanks!

I am renovating my IG pool and would like a new LED light. I'm still not sure about color vs White. Attached is the light I have currently. What is the best way to convert to LED? I think my current light is 12V as I have 2 black transformers at my pool equipment pad. Current light is 500W...

Hello there. I have been a member since purchasing my home in early 2016 and have been quietly lurking since. ;) I just signed to have my pool (and pool deck, patio, etc) remodeled and I'm excited to try to chronicle the progress as it happens. Current state: ~18k gallon in ground plaster...

Hi, I am looking for a recommendation for a pool builder/renovator in the Northern Carlifornia area. I am in Sonoma County and was hoping someone here lives in the area and could pass along a name of someone they've used for a pool remodel. Thank you!

I have an old rusted out heater that I want to remove from the equipment pad. It doesn't work and it also appear to be leaking water since the water still flows through it. I plan to re-plumb and bypass the heater. The equipment pad is higher than the IG pool. Do I need to do anything...

I moved into a home with a pool in early March. I have had a pool service coming weekly for maintenance. I decided to try to my hand at the TFP method and got my TF-100 Test Kit and ran my first full battery of tests today. Here are the results: FC - 11 CC - 0 pH - 7.2 TA - 160 CH - 450 CYA...

I recently moved into my home and it has an IG plaster pool. It appears that the previous homeowner removed the pool deck (it seems to have been stamped concrete) and replaced it with pavers. The pavers look nice (but are HOT under the sun) but they do not surround the entire pool. Previous...

I am a new pool owner (old pool, new to me). The tiles are all covered in white scaled and I decided to take a pumice stone to some today. It cleans off quite easily but it went through my cheap $3 pumice stone very quickly. Does anyone have any recommendations for pumice stone brands,etc...
