    Question - Intelibrite Pentair Pool Lights

    It just seems like I shouldn't have to change it every time. It should remember the previously set color/mode.

    Question - Intelibrite Pentair Pool Lights

    I have a minor issue with my intelibrite pentair pool and spa color changing lights. I've read the manual many times and my understanding is that once you change the color, the next time you put the lights on it should be set on the previously selected color. Meaning if I want my pool lights...

    Yes they are oleanders. When there are strong winds we get a few flowers in the pool but nothing that would cause us any grief. I'd take flowers floating on top the water over leaves and other debris that sink to the bottom any day!

    Test results - first time!!

    Hi! I finally ditched the pool guy! I've been testing on and off since January to get used to it but this is the first time I am in 100% control. My pool guy has been slacking his last couple weeks and I noticed that while my water is completely clear, it has a slight green tint. Nothing too...

    Hi! Yes that is oleander. They completely turned brown after the hard freeze we had in Houston and I thought for sure we had lost them (after over 5 years). However, we trimmed the tops and now they are sprouting leaves again! I've been told the trick is to make sure the roots are well...

    Flying ants?

    Hi! I'm in Houston and am having issues with flying ants landing in the pool. We've had ridiculously warm and humid weather the last few days, so I'm assuming that's why they are out. Anyone have any tips? I found this link, its worth a shot... How to Keep Flying Ants Out of a Swimming Pool...

    Hello from a newbie in Houston

    Thank you! That's hilarious because I just told my husband that Santa needs to bring a test kit. Great minds think alike! That's why I hopped on the site today, I'm trying to decide between the Taylor K-2006 and the TF-100.

    Hello from a newbie in Houston

    Hello TFP people! I've been reading this site and all the great information for months (years?) now and finally decided to join. We started building our pool in August and it was completed at the end of September (super fast, right?!?) and we could not be more in love with it. My husband and...
