Hello, I have a Hayward H400FDN that I'm pretty sure has a leaking heat exchanger. A few days ago I started getting an IF (ignition failure) code and there was a little bit of steam coming out of the unit. We had been having a lot of rain so I chalked the steam up to that. The IF code has gone...

Hello, See below pic for rough what I'm curious about. Not sure how to get rid of the photobucket label in the middle, but you can kind of see what I'm asking about above and below it, just behind the cleaner and right of the cleaner hose. I've been open for about 2 weeks now and the water...

Hello everyone, I really appreciate having a place to go to ask questions. I am going to try to be brief, but there's a bit of a back story that may or may not be relevant and I want to share that info just in case. We are in Maryland where we had some very heavy rain 3 weeks ago. My pool...

Hello, I have a dirt ring in my skimmer and was wondering if a special cleaner is needed, or is something like simple green ok to try? I just don't want to screw up any chemistry. I kind of doubt it with the small amount of cleaner needed compared to the entire pool. But wanted to run it by...

Hello, We just had our pool built this spring and I'm looking into getting a safety cover. I'm still shopping around for quotes, getting someone to commit to an appointment can be a challenge right now, but I'm contacting about 5 different companies. Has anyone installed their own safety...

Hello, My brand new pool was just fired up today and I just wanted to get some thoughts on what to do. I've been reading up for a week or so on this site and purchased a TF-100 test kit and only tested the PH and chlorine so far. PH is off the chart high and no chlorine, but from what I've read...

Hello, First off this is a great site and I wish I had looked at it before building mynew pool. I've got a brand new pool that is about to be plastered in a fewdays. The builder installed an N2 Fusion system, but from what I've beenreading on this site, I would have been better off with nothing...
