hi, my pool heater (hayward brand) finally quit last year and I'm looking to purchase a new one. I believe my pool is 33,000 gallons and has an attached spa (in ground). Any advice before I start collecting quotes? I get a lot of "little missy" interactions from pool guys and my husband always...

hi, my husband jack always dealt with the pool and really well. Unfortunately, he passed away last year and it's all on me now. I have someone to open the pool, but I cannot get the Quantum Dolphin to work, light turns on but unit doesn't roll. No idea what to do and pretty frustrated. Any...

I agree, it seems that I cannot get the pump to prime--I've been filling it for an hour and the water just never fills up so I can put the lid on. It's proving to be a true hassle to get someone out to my house to look at it and I'm really wondering can I turn off pump and heater for the night...

Hi, The sand filter went in early this summer and was working fine (there have been SWG issues, but I could at least backwash filter no problem). I had houseguests and one of them helpfully went out to see why pool wasn't circulating, became very happy they could get it to "work" but when I...

Hi, I believe I bought the exact same cell as a replacement.

Hi, thanks for the wonderful advice earlier about getting my pool back to blue after it went green on me. Now I'm wrestling with the salt cells. Purchased a new one since ours was about three years old and got it installed, but it appears the cell and control board are not talking to each other...

so do I test and keep the SLAM level at 12 by adding more shock? How long do I do that? what's the indication that I can stop adding? I've attached pics of pool this morning. Thanks!

Hi, Thanks for all of the help! So far I've added the two gallons and 2 cups and scrubbed the pool sides. I'm including some pics as the pool is a much better color, but I don't know exactly what to do now? Do I test and keep the FC at the slam level and keep adding if it drops down? I'm also...

Hi, Thank you both!! Now to get more shock and start!! So is my pool access a no no until after the weekend?

thank you so much. I know the pool is not super complicated--I was just lucky to have a spouse who loved tinkering with it. We can talk about my perpetual frustration with my SWG going offline constantly later! :)
