I found a leak under my skimmer and it looks like the pvc elbow is attached to metal pipe. I didn’t think this was possible. Can anyone suggest what has been done here please?

Hi, I have solar heating which is run on the filtration plumbing. ie have to have filter pump running while solar pump is running. When I turn the solar pump on and I hear it running but it will only start to push water to the solar absorbers if I crack open the discharge union on the pump for...

Hi all, I would like to add a chlorine doser to my pool. I'm looking at the rolachem RC1. I also have a solar controller where the filter pump and solar pump plugs into it. Would i be able to put a double adapter on the filter pump socket so that i can run the filter pump and chlorine doser at...

I have just ordered a couple of Ledecsun solar pools lights. Can't wait to try them out. Has anyone tried them?

Hi, do you think I could use these lights https://static1.squarespace.com/static/57871ee2f7e0ab31aff6d617/t/596708e1725e25d30b1097ee/1499924732947/INSTALL+MANUAL_GKRX_20170620.pdf to replace my lights with this transformer?

Hi all, I've been trying to find a leak in my friends fibreglass pool. He was losing a lot of water. We plugged the skimmer and the water loss stopped so assumed it was a suction side leak. Have since pressure tested the suction side and there seems to be no drop in pressure. The pool also has...

Have been thinking about replacing the pool lights as they don’t work but it looks like the wiring runs underground with no conduit. Is it possible just to cut the wire at the light and connect to new light as the only other option I see would be to dig a trench to put the new wire and conduit into?

Hi, a couple of weeks ago I put the winter cover on the pool. It's a black vinyl cover that doesn't allow light or water through. The other day we had a few warm days and when I checked the water it was cloudy and putrid smelling (like rotting fruit). Could this be algae even though no light...

I buy my chlorine in 15 L containers and when the container is quite full it often splashes and spills when I'm pouring it into my measuring jug. Can you use a pump like dispenser to dispense the chlorine or will the chlorine damage the dispenser? Any other tips for easy pouring of chlorine...

Here is a diagram I've drawn of my pool plumbing. The circles represent a 2 and 3 way valve. The 3 way value is the one near the gas heater and the other two near the solar are 2 way valves. I've drawn a circle under the 3 way value indicating at what position it's closed. I haven't touched...

My pool is currently very high in cya. I'm trying to remove as much water each day as possible to lower the cya. This could take a while as I can only remove small amounts at a time due to flooding the garden and neighbours. While I'm in the process of doing this I'm keeping my fc at a minimum...
