Hello. Have been using walmart pool chlorine. and like it it's like 5.50 a gallon. But they put all the pool stuff away for winter. Way too early in my opinion. So I have been looking for plain bleach without fabric softner. Couldn"t seem to find it. So I went to ocean job lot. and bought some...

They are the right kind. Could I put more? I don't have a salt tester. Thanks. filix

I have been adding liquid bleach to my pool ever since I joined this forum. I was always careful that what I was using was plain regular bleach. Somebody up here in maine got chlorine poisoning from mixing two different types of beach. The bleach that I have been using from walmart was...

I got quoted around 7 grand. Seems high. If any body knows of someone trust worthy.

I'm loosing about 1" a day. My liner is about 15 years old. I'm going to try replacing the eyeballs and that plastic plate that has screws in it. I don't know how much a new vinyl liner is today. Filix

Every thermometer I buy is not acurate. Or doesn't sink. Or just a piece of junk. filix

I bought a new robot cleaner from marina pool and spa. I called them over an hour ago got in line for a call back. I press the on button the lite comes on for a second goes off then blinks once. Thats it. The light wont go on the cleaner itself just the control. what am I doing wrong. I took it...

I have a Dolphin pro. It came with the house when I bought it ten years ago. The people that I bought it from, bought it new three years earlier. It worked great. I would love to get another one just like it. Can you still get it. or one equal to it? Thanks. Filix.

Should I try to have it fixed? By another one? where? what kind? This one worked very well. Thanks filix.

I put 3 gallons in to slam. Checked the water it showed no chlorine. but the water was clearing up. I put one more gallon in and kept in running all night. It was getting clearer. But my test still showed no chlorine. I put in 5 more gallons. Tested in a few hours. Still no chlorine in pool...

Hello.filix.

I have to replace mine again. The uv rays cooks them. They are white plastic. Does any place make metal ones? Or somthing that holds up better? I also need a few other things. Anyplace the forum knows who has good prices or a end of the season sale? Its been a bear of a summer here in Maine, but...

Can I use them both at the same time? I use plain bleach most of the time. But if I'm gone all day or longer I want a way to make sure my chlorine dosen't get too low. So on the days I wont be there to ad liquid chlorine, is it ok to put a puck in the skimmer basket? My cya is about 40. about...

My s-200 high rate sand needs to be replaced. I have a 16 x 32 in ground 18000 gallons. Whats the best one out there? Where should I by it Amazon? Thanks.

Every year I open my pool I have leaks. The worst place is always the two conections from my multiport to my sand filter. I back them off, then tighten them a little bit at a time. Still a slow or fast drip. Should I replace those things that screw on? Do they wear out? I think I need a new sand...

The thing I hate the most about water tubes " at least the ones I'm using" is snapping that cap back on after you fill them. What a pain in the butt. The only way to close them is to stand on them, which could puncture them. This year I tried some of them aqua blocks. I didn't care for them...

My green tarp finally bit the dust. I'm not sure if I want to go back with the water bags and tarp/cover. I was looking at those covers that you need to drill holes in the concrete and put in hooks? Do they hold snow? Would anybody know best place to buy either cover? Thank you. Filix.

Hello. The last time I bought it, it was two years ago. I bought enough for three years. I forgot where I bought it thanks. Filix.

I have noticed that my eyes sting a little bit when I'm in my pool. I read here that your eyes have a certain amount of salt. And if your pool is not the same as your eyes it can sting. So I added one 40lb bag. It seemed to help a little. Could I add more? Thanks. Filix.

I would like to try one on my 16x36 inground. Any recommendations? Thankyou. filix :party:

If it is, how can I find it without looking at all of them. :?

I bought one of these last year. It works great. The only thing I would like is a finer mesh type od bag, like the ones you put over the skimmer basket. I remember someone here found better bags for them. Does anyone remember what they were and where to get them? Thanks Filix :cheers:

Do you still live here in Maine? Mark. :?

Started opening my pool this year, flipped the switch for the pump and nothing. My pump is hard wired. 220 I think. Now to find a good pump that fits my stuff. Help! filix. :(

Where can I get it? And what brand is good? Thanks.

I'm just starting to see some pink algae. Some at the deep end and some at the stairs. The water is nice and clear. Filix

My old blue one which is gone now, used to have about 6" of hot water from the sun under it just after a couple hours. The new clear one I bought doesn't do that. Its blazing hot out there right now and the cover has been on all morning. I put hand under and the water was as cold as two feet...

I need a new solar pool cover and spool. The cover is a blue one and it lasted me 3 years.I didn't buy it. It came with the pool. So I don't know how thick it was. The wheels on the spool that you real it in with, have cracked and broke for uv rays. I don't know if the wheels can be replaced...

I took the cover off my hayward s-200 and tried the hose thing to clean my sand. It took me 3 hours. the sand was very dirty and full od hemlock needles. I finally had to scoop out almost all the sand and put it in smaller buckets to clean it that way. I should have just replaced the sand. I...

I have a small leak somewhere from the pad to the skimmer. It causes the pump to slow down and then speed back up. When Ted AKA "waste" was here we tried to find it to no avail. He told me when I open the pool again, I will pull out the kizzmo and the water/antifreese should girgle and slowly...
