    Hayward Pump keeps popping the circuit breaker

    Greetings, We had a fairly big storm here last night with considerable lightening. This morning, I find that my pump is not running. When I plug it in, the circuit breaker on the receptacle pops. I can plug other items in and they work fine. It's only when I plug in the pump. I have checked the...

    Get The Iron Out

    I have started adding Bleach and the iron has been forming and settling on the bottom. I have been vacuuming and discharging the water so I dont get it blown back in. The water does seem to be clearing now as I am able to see the bottom more clearly. I will continue with the polyfill and...

    Get The Iron Out

    Thank You for the reply. Unfortunately, trucking in water isn't a financial option. I do have a filter system on the well for the water inside the house and when adding water to the pool, it does go through that filtering. I didn't fill through that initially because I didnt want to abuse the...

    Interpreting the numbers

    My pool is in sunshine pretty much the whole day so I thought a higher CYA was a good thing based on what I have read. Should it be lower when preparing to close the pool? It will be covered so there will be no direct sunlight on the water (solar blanket and pool tarp). Thanks,

    Interpreting the numbers

    I posted before about fighting an algae issue but did not have a test kit to get my CYA. I have the kit now and have been working on my pool for about a week now. The water is considerably clearer now but still has a green tint to it. Here are my current numbers. CYA 70 FC 13 CC 7.5 PH...

    Need some education

    We have had our pool for 3 years now. We started off using Baquacil which seemed to work ok but was rather expensive. Just recently, we were told (by our pool store rep) that E-Z Pool was the way to go. We were having a bad problem with a cloudy pool so we made the switch. We were able to get...
