Our aqua blue Pebblesheen is 3 months old and I’ve been diligent with taking care of it. This morning I found a brown rust looking stain in our deep end. I did add some calcium chloride yesterday add my CH level had dropped with the rain we’ve had. Could that have caused it? It won’t brush out...

Looking for help! We had to replace our Pentair vs pump yesterday. Since the new pump was installed, there’s been a terrible screeching from the Polaris return when the Polaris is not plugged in. If I remove the blue resistor disc, the sound goes away but the flow is so strong that it spills...

We have an automatic solar pool skimmer (we live in the woods) and we recently got our pool renovated with aqua blue pebblesheen. We’ve been diligent about taking care of the new surface. Although we have a swg, we’ve been using pucks (in a floater and inside the solar skimmer) and dichlor until...

We have a Solarbreeze automatic skimmer. Would it be safe to use that with a new pebble finish? I know we shouldn’t use our automatic cleaner for 30 days but the Solarbreeze only hits the tile. Thoughts?

We had a great first year with our RJ60+. We’re getting our pool remodeled in the spring and we won’t be able to use the SWG for the first 30 days. I bought a bypass valve for when we close. Do I need to disable the flow switch? Right now the salt console turns on with the pump. What’s the best...

Hello! We’re planning on renovating our old Anthony pool from the 1970s (new finish, new deck, new tile) It’s never been replastered, so you can imagine what it looks like. We’ve had three different companies come out and give conflicting advice. pb1: Don’t get glass tiles. They break...

Anyone else here from PA dealing with the spotted lanternfly invasion in your pool this year? I’m running the pump constantly and there’s always at least 100 on the surface. After I skim, 50 will fall back in. Any tricks on dealing with these suckers? We live in the woods, which doesn’t help...

Our cartridge filter is leaking. A new o ring has been ordered. Is it normal for pressure to be high as a result? I cleaned the cartridges yesterday and the pressure hasn’t dropped. The new o ring won’t arrive until tomorrow.

We recently purchased a CircuPool RJ 60Plus. The plan is to install it after we get some electrical work done. Today we had a pool remodel company out for an estimate and we mentioned that we’re going to salt. He says we should absolutely be going with Hayward goldline and hoped that we could...

So first time pool owner/ first time opening. I made a rookie mistake and didn’t adjust PH before starting our SLAM. PH was hot pink over 8?). We started this yesterday Levels before SLAM: 0 FC 0CYA During first day (added bleach and CYA, chlorine kept dropping): FC 5 CC 1.5 CYA 30ish PH hot...

We bought our house in September so this is our first season of ownership. We decided to switch to salt after lugging jugs for a month. We bought a Circupool RJ60 (after reading reviews here) and 17 bags of salt. Current test shows 600ppm currently in the water. Water is green..we are opening on...

Last week I bought a new home with a 28000 gallon concrete pool. I’ve never owned a pool and the previous owner had a company service it once a week. I subscribed to the pool math app after spending too much at a pool chain last week. I bought a brand new test kit. Here are my test results from...
