To add to the other laundry list of issues I've had with this thing, it now leaks! Its a PureLine Prime VS 2.7 It leaks right around the center, water seems to be coming out right where the motor meets the rest of the pump. It seems to be at the Seal Plate, but I'm unsure as there are other...

Here's an update, I got busy with other projects and I realized that without being on top if this, its going to just get worse and eventually take over the pool. I found a great local company and now pay them to handle everything. They cover all chemicals too They have been here twice so far...

Just when I thought the troubles were all fading away, new trouble! My pump is a PureLine Prime 2.7 HP Variable Speed Pool Pump PL2606 (Bought August last year) A few weeks ago I came to my pool pump and it would start priming and within a second or two the screen would go blank, and then it...

Its chipping off, and every time I brush it gets worse. There are spots that there is almost no plaster left, and its very easy for Algae to get growing because its so messed up

I really need to get my pool refinished, its got to the point where it just has to be done. What is your opinion on pebble vs plaster? All of the quotes I have gotten have been for plaster as I didn't actually know the pebble finish existed

I figured I would just update this thread to anyone who finds it The pump has been great, I have not noticed any issues and flow is fantastic. The filter has also done well, but as suggested it does need more frequent cleanings. If the pool is really, really dirty I may need to clean once a...

Maybe Ill make it more of a priority then, but I'm not too concerned Would a good plan be to just ramp up the chlorine level and have a good scrub every day?

Yeah, I'm going to try my best to get it clean, but I'm not going to go too crazy This time last year it was 100% dark green, so we are going in the right direction...

The plaster is already chipping off, so I imagine it was even easier for it to get in there and grow

Ill go out in a moment and take some If I brush at it hard with an Algae brush, I do get some green cloud/particles coming off. Its not totally clean under the puc, but there 100% is a difference

Chlorine puc did lighten it a lot, also made it easier to remove the stain In this case, is it just a case of really working at the stain with a hard brush?

Thanks guys, ill go out now and try the puc, don't have any Vitamin C at this current moment

What would Vitamin C do? If I try the puc, would there be a clear spot under it if it was Algae?

I am looking for a company to renovate my pool. It needs resurfacing, I am pretty sure there is a plumbing leak somewhere and the skimmer is all old. The concrete above/around the pool is also all cracked and sunk Question, can I have the pool stuff done, and then have the concrete done by a...

Sounds good, ill check them out. Thanks guys!

Good information guys, ill try the puc trick and see what happens If it is copper, I might just leave it for when they resurface the pool. That would require a drain anyway

None currently but they may have in the past, no heater I think when I first moved in I dumped a bunch of shock in, which did have copper

My pool needs to be resurfaced for sure, but I wish I could ge this black stuff off the bottom It was there from when my pool was 100% green and filled. Since then I got a new filter and pump and in a very short time I got the water 100% clear. The problem is that there is this big-ol black...

Pucks seem to be in high supply here in Houston, I usually use liquid but they have been cleared out. I probably have 3 weeks worth of liquid until I am out. I will keep scouting the store Makes me wish I had a SWG...

Thanks guys, I think this might be the best idea Is there a current best bang for the buck recommended model? My pool is either 20K or 30K, I am not 100% sure

You guys helped me get my pool to a nice clean level, and currently I add around 3 to 4 gallons of liquid 10% chlorine per week, which I think is quite high (Am I wrong? 20 or 30K Gallon pool, no swimming yet, just leaves and frogs) If I get a SWG, and I correct in thinking I will initially...

I lubed the O-Ring and no change, I haven't yet tried to lube up the union O-ring but everything is performing good so I haven't yet got around to it yet. My pool level is staying much more steady than it was before, I suspect that big selector valve on the DE filter was incorrectly putting...

Alright well I got everything in! See before and after pictures attached. I had a leak below the ground which was very fun to fix Everything is 100x better than before, but: Are a few bubbles normal in the strainer pot? I never had any silicone lube for the O-Ring so right now its dry, ill...
