    Pump not priming

    The deep freeze might have got us...my pump does not seem to be priming and I think I can see where a small amount of water is leaking. I have tightened the bolts that attach the motor to the basket housing but there is still a small amount of water leaking. Could this be a bad o-ring and is...

    Ground Water Level

    It’s early spring and we just got a good bit of rain so I went out and checked the ground water level by looking down my well point and noticed it was pretty high, probably about 3/4 of the way up before the water level of my pool. Should I be pumping ground water out or is it okay to let it...

    Plumbing for future waterfall

    I had my PB run plumbing to the far end of our pool for a future waterfeature, however I've noticed the plumbing is not directly on center. Is this going to cause a problem down the line when we go to build our waterfall or is there an easy solution to this?

    Garapa or Azek Decking DIY

    I'm in a huge debate with myself on what decking to use for around the pool. I've looked at just about everything (I can think of) and have narrowed it down to Azek Harvest Slate Grey or Garapa Brazilian Hardwood. Both would look great, Azek seems to be about twice as much as the the Garapa...
