Hey Everyone - I have an IC60 that is on it's 4th summer. Lately it doesn't appear to be making chlorine. I have attached photos of the cell (all green lights) and my logs for testing. This has been occurring for about a week. I have cleaned the cell two days ago with muriatic acid. When I...

Anyone know an easy fix to get the liner back in the track? I had the pool company here before for this and they were here like 10 minutes. I didn’t see what they did to fix it though.

Good morning everyone. We have had our saltwater pool for about 3 years now. It seems like the saltwater is deteriorating the metal pool cover anchors. Any thoughts on how to slow this down? Would something CLR work? Thanks

First off Merry Christmas! Here in PA we got about 9” of snow last week and 2” of rain yesterday so everything melted and the vinyl liner pool was full. I put the submersible pump into the pool and drained it to below skimmers again. I just unplugged the pump and it continued to pump from the...

So the pool company just closed up the pool for the year here in Pennsylvania - this is our first year with the in-ground pool - it was installed in May 2020. Does anyone cover the pump, heater and filter for the winter or is that overkill? Thanks a lot!

Can anyone tell me what these little bugs are. They seem to hang out at my steps into the pool all the time and then disperse. Thanks!

Hi Everyone - My salt level went low and the red low salt light went on. I just added 120 lbs. of salt to the pool and the red light is still on. I just check the Chlorine level and I am at about .5 for chlorine. I pressed the less and more buttons at the same time to boost the chlorine 100%...

Hi Everyone - We are in the process of securing quotes for an in-ground pool build. The lagoon shaped pool we are looking at is 30x18 and 3-5.5' deep giving me a volume of 17213 gallons. The pool builder is quoting an Pentair IntelliChlor IC20. I have seen numerous times on this forum that...

Hey everyone - I just got back from vacation and had some algae. I ran out to the store and bought 2 gallons to start the SLAM, dumped them in and realized after I added them it was low splash. Pool details are below. Think it will be OK or should I pull the drastic trigger and drain? Thanks...

Hey Everyone - I was on vacation for 10 days last week and I added 2 3" tabs to the pool and brought to shock level with bleach. I returned and had a very slight issue with Algae - I started the slam process yesterday after these test results: FC: 0 PH 7.2 TA 70 CYA 35 I added 250 oz of...

Hey everyone - I got back from vacation yesterday and noticed some algae on the bottom of my floor around the perimeter. I was able to brush it all off, ran the filter for 24 hours and added some Chlorine. I checked it today and I do not see any algae starting to form again but I have a...

Good morning Everyone - I seem to be having issues getting my TA down to under 90. I have been lowering PH to 7.0 and aerating as best as i can but it only drops it to 100 and it seems to creep back up over a couple days. Here are the readings from this morning: FC: 5.5 PH: 7.8 TA: 130 CH...

Good morning all - when I closed my above ground pool last year I pulled the aluminum pole and vinyl rung ladder out and there was algae coming out of the bottom. I want to clean it really well prior to putting it back in this spring. Any ideas on the easiest way to do that? Dumping bleach into...

Good Morning Everyone, First season with the pool is almost over here in PA. Next week is suppose still be in the 80's but I was looking at this for next year...

HI Everyone, I have a 18' round above ground pool and this is my first year with it. The water has been crystal clear all summer until about a week ago. We have been getting some rain and the people at Leslie's tell me that is what it could be. I have done a treatment of crystal blue and...

Hey everyone. We put in an above ground pool at the beginning of the summer and we were wondering what is the weight limit for the top rails. I know adults shouldn't sit on them but is it ok for my 3 year old son to step on it when climbing up the laddder? It is a resin pool from Leslie's. any...
