    Choosing elements for a simple IG pool in North Phx

    We had our 11,000 gallon playpool installed by Paddock 20 years ago, and chose the PCC2000 system with its own pump, and the FNS60 DE filter. I still call it the best $2K I've ever spent! Paramount is still honoring their lifetime warranty on the nozzles, although I've only needed to replace...

    Identifying Proper Infloor Cleaning Head

    Since the pool is already plumbed for an in floor cleaning system, you may want to check to see if it can be retrofitted for the Paramount PCC2000 system! Mine is 20 years old and it still cleans the pool as amazingly as it did when first built! Best $2K I have ever spent!

    Vita spa slow leak - could it be the jet?

    I had a slow leak in my 20 yr old Sundance spa a few months back when I filled it up for the winter season. My local spa parts store recommended a Stop Leak product that often seals up small leaks! Just pour it in twice over 2 days and run the pump to circulate, and voila... it worked! Best...

    Upcoming Pool Upgrades and Questions regarding in floor cleaners

    Nope Dodger, I don't work for Paramount and I'm not in the pool biz. I do know the owner of Paramount, but haven't seen or spoken to him in 15 years. I'm a big fan of the cleaning system, and I try to steer people towards it because it's worked so well for me over the years!

    Upcoming Pool Upgrades and Questions regarding in floor cleaners

    You may want to check to see if the existing plumbing for the Caretaker system can be retrofitted/upgraded to use the Paramount PCC2000 in floor cleaner! IMHO, the PCC2000 is the best IFC available!

    In floor cleaning? Worth the money?

    I had the PCC2000 installed in my new pool 20 years ago, for only $2000. Probably the best $2000 I've ever spent! 20 years later, it still performs like it did on day one. I never brush my pool, it's pretty much self-cleaning! I've always used in line chlorinators to maintain proper...

    So confused, looking for advice...

    I chose the Paramount PCC2000 in floor system when I had the pool built, and 20 years later, I consider it the best $2000 bucks I have ever spent! I've only had to replace 4 nozzles in 20 years, and Paramount still honors their lifetime warranty! I've worked on a few of the older Caretaker...

    New owner-builder (kinda) in Arizona

    Congratulations on your new pool! I live in Gilbert, looking forward to the pool warming up in the next few weeks! Too late for you now, but I would have strongly recommended the PCC2000 in floor cleaning system. Our pool is now 20 years old, and the system still works just as well as the...

    Tahoe Blue Pebbletec Pictures

    Our Pebbletec pool is now 20 years old, and still looks brand new! I've brushed it down approximately 8 times in the last 20 years, but hasn't received any other maintenance! Considering acid washing now, but I can't imagine it looking any better than it does right now! We have the amazing...

    Draining and Re-Filling Pool In AZ ???

    I live in Phoenix, and drain and refill every 3 years when solids number gets high! Rent a pump at Home Depot at the half day rate after 6 pm, returning it the next morning! Plenty of time to drain! Drain to street after dark, nobody will likely care! If you have algae problems, should...

    My thoughts after using Paramount PCC2000 In-Floor Cleaning system for 6 months

    I chose the PCC 2000 IFC when we had our pool built 15 years ago. It was the best $2k that I have ever spent!! Our pool stays debris free and clear all the time! Visitors assume that I must spend a lot of time cleaning the pool, but it's actually the opposite! I highly recommend the PCC 2000...

    I need a new 2000 Sweetwater Bahia Circuit Board

    My Sundance Caprio ST spa has the same problem! The board relay that the heater is connected to exploded, and I now need a new 6600-286 circuit board. I found a replacement board here in Phoenix for $400.00, but I found the board on line at www.spaandpoolsource.com for just $239.00. Does...

    Sundance Caprio heater/circuit board

    I have a 2001 Caprio ST spa that is in very good condition. About 6 months ago, the wire that connects the heater to the circuit board fried at the board relay! Do I need to change the entire circuit board, or is it possible to simply change the one bad relay? Also, does the heater...

    average life span of a hot tub

    I have a 2001 Sundance Caprio spa, and have had very little problems with it until last week. The heater stopped working, and I traced the problem to the circuit board, which looks like it experienced a minor explosion. The wire that connects the heater to the board had fried at the circuit...

    DE coming back into Pool thru return and Polaris feed

    Not sure if you are still having this problem. I had the same thing happening several years ago. After changing the grids and checking for air leaks in the system, I finally realized that the pump was drawing air into the filter from the skimmer. The air would accumulate in the top of the...

    My Backyard Retreat

    @gsmiley....Most peeps never fertilize their Queen Palms, and they can look very bad if not fertilized and watered properly. I use the Deep Drip tree watering stakes filled with granular palm tree food to keep my Queens looking healthy.

    Pool Frog Problem

    I've had the "Frog" chlorinator system for over 10 years now, and I have found it to be a very efficient way to feed chlorine to my pool. I stopped purchasing the incredibly expensive "pacs" many years ago, instead filling the old cartridge with 1 inch tabs that I buy at a local Leslies Pool...

    What dilution rate on the acid, maybe 50/50? Do you recommend spraying it on the tiles?

    Heat Pump or Solar in Arizona

    Hello Schlick, Are you also using a solar cover on your pool? I don't like the idea of having to remove and reinstall the cover each night.

    HEAD PILLOWS Sweetwater/Sundance spa

    The 8 year old pillows on my Sundance Caprio ST spa are now in pretty bad shape. The best deal that I found for replacement pillows was online at www.spaandpoolstore.com. I ordered the 3 pillows yesterday for $140.00, while the local Paddock pool store wanted $225.00 for the same pillows.

    AZ Pool Aerator

    My aerator spray is almost like a fine mist, with very small droplet size. I always set it to cover most of the pool area, without spraying outside of the pool. I'm just wondering if the extreme temps (105 degrees and above) diminish the cooling of the water when using the aerator, or worse...

    AZ Pool Aerator

    In order to cool the pool during the hottest part of the AZ summer season, I run my pool aerator at nighttime, while the pool cleaner is doing its thing. The aerator normally cools the pool down by about 4 to 5 degrees. My question: would the aerator also cool the pool during the middle of...

    My Backyard Retreat

    Our pool is now 10 years old, and we still use it every day during our sizzling Arizona summers. We didn't have much room in our yard, but managed to get the best use out of the space available.
