    Fiberglass Consult Soon - What Did You Wish You Asked?

    We did. It started at the neighbors house, luckily we heard a propane tank explode and wake us up. Got both dogs out but couldn't find the cat. After 6 hours and the fire being put out, the cat walked right up to a fire fighter on a last walk of the house for hot spots. The cat hates people but...

    Fiberglass Consult Soon - What Did You Wish You Asked?

    I asked about a sump tube and they told me I do not need one. I let it go...... Now I have a bunch of glass, metal and tile (lost house due to a fire) in my pool and have to drain it with no sump tube. Don't settle if you don't like their answers.

    House fire

    Unfortunately we have not had our pool long and have suffered a house fire. It spread from the neighbors house to ours. We got word today that it will need to come down to the slab and be inspected. I found this website while the pool was going in and didn’t know what I know now. There is glass...

    Official 2020 Pool Critters Thread

    I’ve been having a lot of frogs get in the pool and die lately. Last night I set up a FrogLog and came out this morning to one getting out of the pool!

    New owner in Florida

    I had my pool installed late last year. I have always had problems deciding how yellow or red it really was when doing the basic chlorine/ph test. I got the WaterGuru about 3 weeks ago. I use the TF-100 once every week or two. I have compared the test from the WaterGuru to the TF-100 and they...

    WaterGuru

    That pretty much lines up with how I test. If its dark yellow I know there is chlorine in the pool. Last night the WG showed 4.6 FC and and the titration test showed 5. I'm pretty sure I do the titration test properly, heaping scoop and add the drops till it turns clear while using the SpeedStir...

    WaterGuru

    I have a hard time comparing the shades for the ph and chlorine on the basic test kit and find myself using the FAS/DPD test to really know where my chlorine level is at. I decided to try the WaterGuru. Using the K-1000 I thought I was at 6 ppm and 7.4 for PH. I then tested using the FAS-DPD...

    In Pool "Accessories"

    We put umbrella sleeves around our pool in the decking, I love it. When the sun moves we can take them from one side and move to the other side.

    Fiberglass Pool Install

    When our fiberglass pool went in the process took 2 1/2 days. I wasn't able to be home but I did set up a cheap camera and watched from work. I also had a good friend go by and watch the pool get unloaded and set. Luckily we did not have any of these issues but I would recommend you just stay on...

    WaterGuru - A Test

    I ordered my WaterGuru last week. I will use it to help me dial in the SWG then continue my weekly test with the TF 100.

    Fiberglass install happening now!

    They left me with a cheap valve and hose to drain the pool when needed. We had a really wet winter and I found myself in the rain rolling up the hose quite a bit. I rigged this up to drain down the side yard behind the bushes over the weekend.

    14x28 rectangle pool-is it big enough?

    Ours is a Viking Empress pool, its 12x26. It fits our back yard and I'm happy with it. The steps come out and it makes it hard to swim laps but we really got this pool for more of a hang out and relax pool. The full build is in my signature.
