I have read about all the wildlife that could find their way into the pool. Ours is in ground so I assumed it could be real thing. We have lots of chipmunks in the yard. I found the "frog log" online, it floats near the skimmer and has a ramp for animals to climb out. The ratings were very...

That makes sense. I knew there would be a simple answer. Thanks very much.

This is my first pool. I opened it myself and everything looks great. Balanced out nicely and crystal clear water. I have been running my 3/4 HP pump much longer than necessary to shake things out and I will now figure out how many hours it will need. I also installed a SWG so the run time vs...

Thanks for your reply. I'm assuming it will benefit from a deep cleaning. I saw photos of the pool before we bought the house, and it looked great. But, given the age of the filter and pump it probably could use some attention. I have read elsewhere that the sand loses some effectiveness over...

This is my first pool. I'm feeling good about getting it open and up and running myself. It's a 14,000 gal in ground. I have a Hayward Pro Series S220T sand filter. I saw the thread here about sand filter deep cleaning, it was very informative. My question, the previous owner left a few hundred...
