    Needing a new liner :(

    Sure! We have a Nautilus CC Plus. Our liner was getting pretty faded and we knew we would have to replace it in a year or two. We had just bought the robot and within a week it had ripped a decent size hole that I patched. But during the second week of use, it went along the area right below...

    Needing a new liner :(

    I bought the pool as a kit and did a lot of the work myself. I still have the dig specs and the exact dimensions it ended up being. I think it's a pretty common kit size.

    Needing a new liner :(

    At the end of the last season, our super cool pool robot ripped a massive hole in our liner. I had been chatting with a guy from Pools Inc about getting the new liner...but now I'm not sure if they are still in operation. I can't get anyone to respond. Any recommendations on where to buy one...

    Looking for help with vinyl replacement

    Hello everyone! We have a standard 16' x 24' x 42' liner pool. After 12 years, the liner is shot. We have up trying to patch it half way through the summer and just let the water drain about halfway out till it stopped at a big rip. We need to buy a new liner for next season, the problem is that...

    Losing 2” water a day...

    I have no idea, but it sure does. We live at the bottom of a huge hill and had a terrible time when we were building the pool because the underground water kept filling it up before we got a liner in. Recently here in KC it has been raining a ton then just stopped. My guess is that the flooding...

    Actually, I think it’s the hydrostatic relief valve that got stuck open.

    Losing 2” water a day...

    Hello everyone!! I have started losing around 2” of water a day. When we took the cover off, the water was almost to the top of the pool. After we turned everything on is when we started losing water. Is there a way to check the plumbing for leaks?? I have everything turned off for the night...

    Drop water line below return?

    Hello everyone! Every year when I close the pool, I drop the water line below the return jets and add antifreeze and plug them after blowing all the lines out with a compressor. This year I finally bought a nice safety cover...yay!! It’s supposed to hold up to 4,000 pounds. We live in KC and...

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    A quick follow up. I talked with a nice guy from pentair this morning. He wants me to get the meatl level of the water checked. If it has a high metal content then it could be throwing off the plates.

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    Should I just let it keep running and see if the light stops blinking?

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    Correct, it’s flashing green like a stoplight flashes. When I unplug it and then plug it back in, the green light will come on and act like it’s working for about 5 minutes, then it starts flashing. There was no build up on any of the plates either time I used the MA. The very first time the...

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    I turned it on right after I added the salt which was three days ago. The salt level is all leveled out now. I have unplugged the cell a few times to clean it.

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    The “cell” light is flashing. When it’s producing chlorine the cell light is on. Right next to the light it says “ inspect cell if flashing”. When I hold down the more button it shows that it still has 60% life left.

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    Well, the pool is looking better! The FC is still at 15 with an overnight drop around one. I added salt and turned on the ic40 after about 5 minutes the cell light started blinking indicating that the cell” needs attention”. I did the acid cleaning twice and the cell light still blinks after 5...

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    I just put all new Sand in the filter two weeks ago. The water IS looking better. It’s just not where I thought it would be. I can see the third step down in the shallow end but not the actual bottom.

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    So, the SLAM has been going on for a little over a week. Countless jugs of 12% from menards have gone in. My cya is at 40 and the fc stays around 16. I have used the leaf sucker thing I bought and have vacuumed to waste. The water is still really cloudy. I can’t see the bottom of the shallow...

    Wife says we need to drain and start over

    CYA / chlorine relationship is confusing! I started slamming my pool a couple of days ago. Reading through the charts and watching a couple of videos has really confused me about the CYA chlorine relationship. It looks like the more CYA you have the more chlorine you need, which seems to be...
