I looked on their website but really didn't see much. Do you have a link or as anyone aware of other options?

I have a five-year-old in-ground vinyl pool that we built and the vinyl above the water line is faded really bad in some spots can you add a tile border? I've seen some post in the past but they were all older, if there's any one out there that does this in how? I've read about some tracking...

Thanks for the info. Any of those options better than the other? Which model numbers do you recommend for his pool? Which can be purchased for the least?

Posting for my computer illiterate buddy with a 30k gunite pool. He wants to swap his inline chlorinator with an SWG. He has no automation. I have an IC40 for 20k so naturally was thinking an IC60. He wants to do it right so looking for opinions. Thanks in advance.

Guess I need to go take a look huh... thanks guys. Will tighten it up so its flat and fill water to 15"

Don't you mean spring stretch vs. compressed? They are already fully compressed when unhooked.

How do you set the compression? Confused? None of the springs are stretched.

I have a mesh safety cover contoured to my kidney shaped pool with a set of steps on each end. The PB installed it last year and informed me to get the water level to about 15" before it snows. I did so and got 4 small dime sized holes in the mesh last year. I think this was from some water...

Update: Borrowed an air compressor and it handled the main drain no problems! Finally 100% closed. ph at 7.5, good to go.

I did it all myself... used a 5hp shop vac that did great on all the lines but could not get bubbles on the main. Should I worry? How about a less costly option that will do the trick?

bump... Same problem here. I tried both a 5hp vac and a leaf blower. Put down a gallon of antifreeze for now. Last year my PB closed and all they had was an electric leaf blower??? No way they could have gotton bubbles out of the main. I had no issues with all other lines. Mike

Thanks for the check valve tip! We did have some leaks in the solar when installing it. All appear to be sealed now. We also cracked the filter gauge this winter so I have a small pressure side leak right now. Though, I'm bypassing the filter right now so it should not be an issue. I also don't...

Forgot to mention we also have an IC40 SWG. the VSP is nice as I can set the slowest speed and still allow the SWG to function. This speed changes if the solar is active or not, as well as if the deck jets are on and how clogged to filter is. My hope is the the low speed on a 2-speed would be...

All, We have an IntelliFlo VS-3050 with SVRS and one main drain, one skimmer, 2 main returns, 2 jetted steps and 3 deck jets. We also have a solar system on our roof. I love the flow we get out of the IntelliFlo at max speed and how it works well with our Easytouch. But I absolutely can not...

bump... I have one of these and am wondering the same thing. How do you adjust the angle?

Re: First Test Results w/TF-100 and Brand New Pool > Questio OK, it looks like 20oz of muratic acid and 400oz! of liquid stabilizer... I see CSI is .35, could the ring on my walls be scaling? I see white rings left on the steps this morning?

Re: First Test Results w/TF-100 and Brand New Pool > Questio Thanks for the replies… 3) Requires investigation, see below. Can you describe this white/tan ring in more detail? Is it smooth, or rough? Does any of it scrape off with a fingernail? The ring is a few inches tall due to water...

All, We finally got water in our vinyl 21K gal IGP a few weeks ago. The PB was balancing the water (sort of) and it is about time I took over. We also have an Easytouch 8, IntelliChlor IC40 SWG, IntelliFlo VS-3050 SVRS VSP, Mastertemp 250HD, and Triton II TR100 30” Sand Filter w/Zeobrite...

Re: New pool will have water tomorrow - Ordering TF100 Quest I'm sold... so order TF100, Speedstir, Salt Test Strips? What about borates?

Re: New pool will have water tomorrow - Ordering TF100 Quest I told our PB that I'm ordering this kit and he said not to worry about it and that he has everything for me... He said it is as easy as keeping up with the PH and salt level. He is going to give me a bottle of something that...

Re: New pool will have water tomorrow - Ordering TF100 Quest Thanks... We will have an easytouch 8/IC 40 so will we still need salt strips? No idea on borates? It was not covered in the BBB for begineers? What do you suggest? Whatever makes my life easier I'm all for, will speedstir save me...

Vinyl SWG Pool. Going to start out the gate with BBB. Going to order the TF100 today. Do I need any of the 5 options? We just spent 50K, a few extra bucks is not an issue at this point. Options 1. The Speedstir - I thought this little device was somewhat frivolous until I got one for my kit...

Thanks for the comments... UPDATE: PB spent 6 hours personally yesterday working on the concrete while I was there to checking in on him. He used liquid release, some antiquing stuff, xylene, and then put the first coat of sealer on. It looks much better, but I can still see some difference but...

UPDATE: The color difference is not as bad now as is cures. Still not acceptable though. I have agreed with the PB to let him acid stain the lighter portion only to see if he can get it to match. If this is not to my liking, he will tear it out and replace. Is he wasting time and money? Does...

I appreciate the comments guys... the PB let me know that he will do whatever it takes to make it right, even if they have to start over. I feel better now. Just might be a bit longer before we are swimming.

I now remember one of the crew mentioning that the 2nd batch had much more water... it took longer to cure before stamping for sure. This is likely why. I sent an email the PB explaining our concerns in writing. I do not want him to proceed nor will he get paid unless this is fixed. I may give...

thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the feedback. I am not happy and did not pay them yet. I told them this and they said the tint will fix it and that this is typical? I made this post to see if anyone else came across this and how they handled it, do they regret their decision, etc. Perhaps the tint will temporarly...

The pictures were taken in the rain so that is not sealer on there...

All, Just got to the stamped concrete phase of our build and ran across an issue. The concrete crew started pouring around noon and got 75% of the concrete in and stamped with the first truckload. The 2nd batch was supposed to show up at 3:30pm. Well, it did not come to almost 6pm and the guys...
