    New build - Plano Texas

    Hi, pool design looks great. Just wondering if the pool is swap enough for diving off the side. I get the benefit of using more of the pool without a deal end, but my kids and some adults still jump and dive and I don't think 5 feet would be deep enough. Thought I was share. Best of luck...

    Hayward HeatPump Trouble Model HP2100TCO2

    The issue I was having was a result of low flow. I had recently installed an intelliflow pump and was running is too slow. It was screwing up the heat pump. Once I increased the flow everything works fine.

    cloudy water not clearing during slam

    For some reason when I opened my pool this year it stayed cloudy longer then expected. I just put some clarifier or something like that in and it was clear the next day. No issues in the 2 months since. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    In Ground Pool Over Filled Due to Rain

    My pool doesn't overflow but I don't believe I have any pipe to allow this. I just assumed I had a hole in my liner somewhere above my skimmer that keeps the water from reaching the top. I haven't seen any downside to the hole in the liner method so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Temp of return jet water low - is heat pump not working?

    Searched the Hayward website. According to them "Hayward heat pumps have a flow rate range of 30 to 70 GPM, with an optimum flow rate of 45 GPM." Good to know.

    My heat pump indicates the flow can be as low as 30gpm. Is there any data on what the most efficient flow rate should be for a heat pump pro? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    All the DE goes back in the Pool

    I was hoping that was the issue too. Did check on not this issue which is why I thought maybe when I turned to multi port to off prior to cleaning maybe it got screwed up inside and needs to be repaired. May try to open it up to see what it looks like in there.

    All the DE goes back in the Pool

    I cleaned my filter a week or so ago (which I have done at least 50 times now since I had the pool). This includes opening the filter, removing the manifold and spraying the grids to remove dirt and DE. Put it back together and add DE as have done in the past.....next day DE all over the pool...

    Hi, wondering if anyone has replaced / installed a temp sensor Hpx2169 to determine if it is a DIY job or if a Pro is needed. I couldn't find any installation instructions anywhere so I thought I would post. Thanks in advance for any help.

    How to fix a small pin hole above water level

    I've used the clear patches. My liner has a lot going on in terms of design so unless you are really looking for the patch it's almost impossible to see. The first hole is like the first dent on a new car.

    Safety roop hook

    spoke to the pool builder. The hook screws in and broke off at the base. Was able to heat up screw driver and stick it in the post...then cool it off and screw out the treaded post.

    Safety roop hook

    One of the white hooks that the safety rope connects to broke off the side of the pool. Looking at it, it must have been installed prior to the backfill stage during pool construction. I assume there is a bolt on the other side which can no longer be accessed. I don't really care about...
