Instructions above worked for my menu button that wasn't working. Simple fix.

Just wanted to follow up and I hate to say it. I took it apart, cleaned the 4 cartridges, re-seated everything, and noise gone.

I noticed a whining noise last night and thought it was my pump. After listening closer, it is coming from my cartridge filter (Hayward 4 cartidge). Water level in pool is fine, skimmers and pump basket cleaned out. Of course the noise goes up as I go up in RPMs on the pump. I will open the...

Thank you. I'm going to try plugging 4 and see what that does.

I have 2 2-way valves. One has the returns and bubblers and the other has waterfall and deck jets. I have no way to turn some of the returns on and some off.

Our pool is over a year old and no Algae or chlorine issues yet. The builder put in what I think is too many returns. We have 10 returns. The pool is 18x36 with an 8x8 additional ledge. 2 returns in ledge, 2 in vinyl steps, 2 on shallow wall facing deep in and 4 on sides. Ive gone to the smaller...

I think the manufacturer ust looked at the liner and saw the error. I just meant no one came back out to the house to remeasure.

Temps haven't been too bad....50s and 60s. The rain is a different story. Our builder actually does a lot of no border liners. I think it is a free option for Tara Liners.

Thanks Kim. The fit was on the manufacturer I think. The builder had a conf call with them and no one ever came back out to remeasure.

Looks Great! Were they able to get all of the wrinkles out around the steps? We are finishing up our build and have a couple that they say they will have to come back for when the temps are a little warmer.

What a loooong few months! We have had more rain in the last few months than I ever care to see again. We had several access delays because of the heavy equipment not being able to get in. We then had delays because we couldn't keep water out of the deep end long enough to finish the pool krete...

The S200 is $699 shipped most of the time from Marina Pools and Spa. I'm building now and have researched here for months. That's the best deal I could find and ordered mine yesterday.

Backfill complete, bond beam in, and travertine coping done. Hopeful for concrete deck pour next week.

We are in the middle of our build now and went back and forth on full length steps. We decided on an 8 x 8 splash pad on the side and halfway down the pool. Design attached. The steps are still vinyl, but just 8 ft. If you make the external to the pool length, it doesn't take away any swim area...

The water features (bubblers, deck jets, and sheer) will have separate valves but returns are all on one valve. Any reason for concern? I don't see running all of the water features at once, but do you think there will be enough flow for returns and 1 or 2 of the others? I don't want to have to...

Well, I know there will be multiple valves because we have deck jets, a sheer, and bubblers. I need to catch up with the builder and ask how that's gonna work. Surely I should be able to run all of the returns withoit a water feature on.

A little progress. They poured footers ran the plumbing, partial backfill, and did a pressure test. It looks like a total of 10 returns....6 in the pool and then 2 in steps and 2 in splash pad. Sound about right?

Thanks Jimmy. The contract says a minimum of 4 returns, but I talked to the builder earlier and he would do 5 or 6.

Just another couple of notes about decisions that I researched a lot here and made. 1. Main Drain - the builder typically installs main drains. We didn't have them on our last pool, I I read enough here to feel comfortable enough to ask him to delete main drain. 2. Cleaner - going robotic and...

Progress! Most if the mud dried up, walls in, footer poured. We are clear for more good weather next week. The plan is for them to cut in for plumbing and backfill....maybe the travertine coping next week. So far the crew has been great and not really any issues. I just need to stop watching the...
