Hi all, I just back washed and rinsed my filter due to a lot of rain the last couple of days. My pumo was flowing fine prior to backwash. No there is no flow going through the pump. The valve is back in the 'fillter' position. Any ideas what's going on?

Hi all, I was removing my SWG to clean it out and the pvc ring that connects it to the pipes snapped. Is this an easy fix or due to the lip on the pvc pipe is this a big project? I've attached some pictures of the broken one and the other side which is fine. Thanks

Hey All, just got my test kit in. Pool is clear and looking pretty good right now. It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow and rain the next 5 days. Should I go ahead and test the water and see what needs to be adjusted, or add some salt in everyday until the end of the week when the rain clears?

Hey All, I got my water tested at Leslie's and they showed my salt at 2500ppm while the ideal range is 2700 - 3400 ppm. They said I need to add 3 bags of salt, or 116lbs. My pool is approx. 20,000 gallons. Can I just add a pound or two of shock to increase the salt levels or will that not...

Hey TFP, recently bought a house with a pool spa combo and I'm a first time pool owner. Our spa will lose water while the pump is running. I found a Jandy that controls the flow of the return water to the pool and spa. If I put the Jandy to return approximately 80% to the spa and 20% to the...
