    You may can carefully bend them back temporarily and fit another pipe tightly inside of them for rigidity. The pool will need to be drained to do this.

    She's Back! And ready for Season 2...

    You need to order replacements for those on the bestway site. If they go the pool goes and everything in its path, including kiddos in the pool. they are holding up a 40,000 pound bag of water.

    Advice on pump and filter replacement

    Just wondering because 110v limits your pump selection if you want a variable speed. Most inground pools use 220v but I have learned not to make assumptions.

    For the future… i have found 3 brands with good dissolvibility (is that a word?) Puritech, clorox, & Regal I buy whichever is cheapest at the time.

    Pool Math APP - Free version

    Correct- the only way to make it “stick” as you put it is to log it which must be done by editing your 1 free log if you don’t have a subscription.

    Pool Math APP - Free version

    You can do this by clicking the csi card in the overview and changing each parameter manually. It is just a calculator- those features don’t change. The values just aren’t automatically adjusted based upon your logs because there aren’t any.

    Advice on pump and filter replacement

    If they want to sell you something they should answer your questions. The general consensus here is to get 3 quotes if possible. You are now armed with the knowledge of what you sizes of equipment want/need instead of just taking whatever they offer (which is what they likely prefer- blind...

    TF-Pro Salt

    Test whenever changes occur- like a deluge of rain or water replacement. I probably test salt a handful of times per season. Monthly is a good rule of thumb. The reading difference is common - as I was referring to before, as the cell ages the unit will often measure less & less salt. Most new...

    TF-Pro Salt

    Place a white card/paper behind the comparator- i also sometimes use the blank browser screen on my phone since its white & backlit. This is mainly for ph & determining the hue For total chlorine its basically a “you have chlorine or you don’t” kinda test. Or as i call it “the really deep...

    Am I ready to add Boric Acid?

    It won’t hurt anything to add it but it just may or may not have any noticeable benefits for you. Ymmv- I stopped replenishing it a few years ago and have noticed zero difference. I don’t get build up on my salt cell anyway so there’s no difference for me there. Chlorine is my algaecide so...

    For volume, Put your estimate in and adjust up or down as needed based on your actual test results from calculated additions of chems. My pool measurements say a little under 26k gal but when using 27k gal in poolmath my results are generally dead on. As for how long does the kit itself...
