    Deep clean sand filter

    Hey new dude! I guess me being absent is a good thing because it means the pool has been trouble free! I don't think the sand is very dirty but towards the end of last season the filter seemed to not want to start up all the time and just seemed "off". So I promised it would get a nice cleaning...

    Deep clean sand filter

    Should I replace the sand or just clean what's in there and add more. I actually have an sd80 so I bought 350# of sand but if I dont need it I can just store it for future use.

    Deep clean sand filter

    We filled in August of 2019. If I need to fill, should I open the drain and just run water through to empty it? Then just carefully pour it in the top (covering the pipe of course)? What kind of sand do I use to replace it? I dont think I've been losing sand (at least not that much) so could...

    Deep clean sand filter

    Hi. I've finally decided to be brave and deep clean my filter. First, question is what do i do if the opening is too small (with the pipe in) to get my arm in? Do I skip removing debris by hand and just hope it floats out? Next question is, do I need to add more sand? It seems really low🤔. Oh...

    Deep clean sand before open?

    So looking at the videos I was hoping it was as simple as taking the screws out the top of the multiport, putting a hose in the sand and shifting it around some until water ran clean (or somewhat like that). I now realize I may have to cut pvc to open it, which I am not doing. Is that the only...

    Deep clean sand before open?

    Hi! I've uncovered the pool and replaced baskets and plugs. I'm now working on stretching a part of the liner that came loose from the liner lock (using the blow dryer method). Almost done, but it's tough! My question is should I deep clean the sand filter before turning equipment back on or is...

    Screenlogic for Mothers Day! Help

    So my husband has told me that I can have screenlogic2 (or whatever it is that I need to control pool from my phone) as part of my gift (what I asked for). My question is what exactly do I want 😆....? We have an easytouch4 that was installed on our new pool 2 years ago. We have an electrician...

    Can we swim? Fc 10.5, cya @20

    Heyyy! I'm thinking I will add in half the suggested cya for now (sock method, squeezing it and mixing in) and in a few days recheck and continue from there. It's the first day with hot weather and pool open so they are anxious.

    Can we swim? Fc 10.5, cya @20

    Ok, but if I add in half the suggested amount of cya (sock method but hurry it along by squeezing then mixing), should they be ok to go in today. Obviously I will test again before they do, but sun is shining and pool is open so you know how that is... not that I think they'll stay in long with...

    Can we swim? Fc 10.5, cya @20

    Hi. Boys want to jump in after school. My cya is at 20 but may be lower and my fc is 10.5 cc.5. Do I add cya now or let the low cya help bring the fc down? Is that even a thing? Can they still swim? I turned the heater up this morning but now I'm second guessing what my next steps are. Water...

    Second summer with pool, first self opening

    I'm excited that we're opening pool ourselves this year! Just took cover off and it beautiful 😍. So I looked at the opening procedures and just want to make sure I have this right. Is it as simple as unplugging the jets?, taking out the gizmos, filling up pool and turning it on?? Big question...

    Cya at closing

    Hi. Im about ready to close my pool. My cya has been at 40 but today tested at 50. Do I need to bring it up before raising my fc to close? I'm having someone come tomorrow to blow out lines, but I forgot I need to let fc drift back down after raising so will have to reschedule for later. How...
