    Dolphin Active 20 will climb 90deg walls but not 45deg?

    Just wanted to post a follow up that I just replaced the tracks and now the thing is climbing the walls in the deep end!!! It seems to be getting around better in general AND it did not get hung up on the main drain like it usually does - I still might get the clips for it though so I don't...

    Dolphin Active 20 will climb 90deg walls but not 45deg?

    Thank you! That's what I was thinking, but I didn't want to lead the conversation. The previous owner stored it outside for 4 years, so the tracks could be hardened/degraded by UV exposure... I'll put some OEM ones on order. Other than that, it's a great unit! Sure beats the manual vacuuming...

    Safety Cover vs Tarp - opening water condition

    Thanks. It is a mesh cover. We did close in October as well and it was VERY cold at that time. We use a pool service to close the pool, and they told me that they put the closing chemicals in...I'm just trying to figure out if this is normal for a mesh cover or if the pool service did not put...

    Safety Cover vs Tarp - opening water condition

    First, let me say I have been using TFP for two years and have never been happier! My pool water has been outstanding using the system during this time. Last fall we decided to ditch the tarp and switch to a safety cover. In years past when we take the tarp off, the water is crystal clear -...

    Best Places to Buy Liquid Chlorine

    Yes, great deal! I bought 7 cases last year and it worked great for me - wish I had bought more at the time. I stocked up today! Thanks for the tip on the acid too! IIRC, that's about half price as well.

    Shouldn't my CYA be going down?

    Hello all! First I want to say thanks! My last year with my pool was my first and it was very frustrating. This year, I am doing TFP methods and it is AWESOME! I finally can figure out what's going on with my pool, and am greatly enjoying the peace of mind that goes along with it. Likely...
