Not sure I'd use them!

http://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa=Main.Item&itemid=75&acctid=1993 I found these, just wondering if anyone has experience with them? Not sure if I'll bid on them as at least one needs work. Neither is a complete setup so would need accessories.

Finally got the pool up and filled in time for Labor Day weekend. Started filling almost a year to the day after we dissasembled from it's old home. This is my first pool with a skimmer and the water flow through it doesn't seem very strong. I have strong flow out of the return, ripples 1/3 of...

This question is just for my general knowledge and not related to a problem. I've read here a lot about pumps and matching impellers to motors. A good match is most efficient, an under-sized impeller is okay but not ideal, an over-sized impeller is bad for the motor. So on a two speed pump why...

Picking up a "free" 27' round pool this weekend. We have to disassemble with help from the owner. Looking for advice to make it easier or more successful. I've done some reading here and elsewhere so have some ideas but am open to suggestions. I haven't been to see the pool yet but from pictures...

I have two little girls, 3 & 5, who love the pool we have. It's a ring pool that we've not filled full so that it comes just to the shoulders of the 3 year old. I'm looking at getting a used metal sided pool at the end of this season and setting it up next year. I've done some research and know...
