    Leak isolated to light. Help please.

    Thank you. I did the dye. It is back of niche. Got it to temporarily stop by pulling the light out. I’ll let it dry out and work on sealing to leak.

    Leak isolated to light. Help please.

    My pool has been leaking about an inch per day for the past week. After lots of rule outs (thanks to this site), I have isolated it to the light. I would either try the stopper or butyl tape but…. When I opened the pool my light was working. Now it is note. There is some water in the bulb...

    Stained Steps

    Hi, I just finished a successful slam - and passed the three parameters test (clear, no CC, overnight hold). I am somewhat high on TA and working to lower by lowing PH and aerating. It is gradually coming down. Now I need to get to work on my step stains. Vitamin C does clear it. I had this...

    High CC

    Hello - I am looking for some advice. 10,000 gallon vinyl liner pool with DE filter. Readings over past four days below. Pool is crystal clear. The only oddity is yellow staining on my steps - which I also had to deal with last year. I did not test for metals this year. Last year every test...

    Pool Light Burned out EVERY YEAR

    Hi - please help. I'm located in PA and keep my in-groud pool open from May - Sept. Every year when I open it, the pool light is burned out. Last year I decided to replace it with an LED bulb thinking that the incandescent was freezing. However, I opened the pool today and the LED is not...

    Pool light out each year when I open

    Hi and thank you. No, water level never under light, light never on. Power (at circuit breaker) turned off to light before closing pool and not turned back on until fully open.

    Pool light out each year when I open

    For the past three years my pool light is burned out when I open my pool. I replace it, it works all season. I’m considering replacing with an led bulb. Has anyone else had this issue or have advice? GFC not popped. No water in light.
