    Liquid Chlorine Cost Increase @ Home Depot

    Yeah paid about $18 per 2 pack at the HD here in Vegas, just a few hours ago. And Leslie Pools is a joke when it comes to having HASA in stock. With all useless Crud they stock in their stores, you think they could stock a few more pallets. Worthless pool franchise.

    What's your current pool temp?

    86 yesterday here in Las Vegas. After 85 I'm good.

    Sounds interesting but at $528 I think I'll just keep using my net and trusting my skimmers.

    Leaking Hayward bulkheads, advice needed

    Nevermind, received the two bulkeads and o-rings, lubed and installed them, and leaks are gone.

    Leaking Hayward bulkheads, advice needed

    Should I wrap the threads of the bulkhead with teflon tape? I can't seem to find any definitive instruction for these.

    Leaking Hayward bulkheads, advice needed

    As the title states, I have both inlet and outlet bulkheads leaking from my hayward c3025 filter, after replumbing my pump and having to move the inlet and outlet filter lines. I ordered two new bulkheads with orings, and also two new orings for the union. My understanding is that these...

    Check you weir door.

    I'm really not happy about any unneeded stress on my whisper flow. Everything seems fine now but even 10 seconds of cavitation makes me nervous.

    Check you weir door.

    This just a rant to unload. Yesterday I re-plumbed my pump outlet since it was developing a leak. After a few hours cure time, I tested the system for leaks and noticed major cyclical cavitation at the pump. Dumbfounded, I searched everywhere for leaks at the equipment and found nothing...

    My experience with Maytronics customer service and warranty.

    My experience with Maytronics warranty repair on my Nautilus CC Plus was pretty stellar. Other than waiting on hold for 30 minutes, they replaced a failing motor and the side panel and had it back to me within a week. Wish they would pay for shipping out to them, but it is what is.

    Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus Belt Came off - New!

    Yeah its a real shame, because when the CC plus is working, it cleans like a champ.

    Trying to source this spa nozzle

    I emailed INYOpools but have gotten no response. The part number I posted above is incorrect. Slightly to big. It turns out the base of the nozzle is 3/4 inch with a 3/8 inch orifice. Looks like INYOpools doesn't carry this. The correct part is Nozzle Waterway Gunite Jet 3/4" White 217-1080.

    ColorQ7 vs Taylor 2006 CH really off.

    I have no idea. All I know is that the previous owner was using a PoolRX thingy and the pool use to be chlorinated with SWG. I have since removed the poolrx and the SWG from the equation. I really need to schedule a water change.

    I'm really not finding these.

    Trying to source this spa nozzle

    In an effort to troubleshoot my spa, I discovered one of the spa jet returns is missing the internal nozzle. Does anyone know where I can source this? It fits a 15mm socket almost perfectly. I am not sure what size this is. There is a small "3" on the side. Thank you in advance!

    ColorQ7 vs Taylor 2006 CH really off.

    Hmm interesting. If LaMotte is actually measuring TH instead of CH that would make sense why it is so high. I just wish the Free Chlorine would be more accurate atleast. Very disappointing. I know I have metals in the water (magnesium precipitate occurs) and I have fading endpoint while...

    ColorQ7 vs Taylor 2006 CH really off.

    I have had some doubts about my ColorQ7 results for the past several months, since I purchased it tbh. Particularly with my free chlorine and calcium hardness. I really wish I had read through the plethora of threads warning against this unit before purchasing and wasting $200. Another reason...

    Pool Cleaners (robot, etc)- how long have you had yours?

    Second week or so with the Doheny's Discovery. It cleans ok, undecided if I would purchase again. I also have Nautilus CC Plus that should be returning today from a warranty repair after 1.5 years of use. It cleans very well, but I would not buy it again, because the black plastic side panels...

    Hi from Vegas

    New to the forum but been lurking for a year or so since I moved in to my new home with a pool! Such a great forum with ample info for us do it yourself-ers.

    Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club

    I really don't think there is anything malfunctioning on it, and tbh it does a good enough job, so I'm not disappointed. Simply, my expectations were higher coming from the Nautilus. I chalk it up to a different design that may be slightly less efficient at cleaning than the Nautilus CC Plus...

    Doheny's Discovery, S200, Active20, Triton owners club

    I'm on my second week with my new Doheny's Discovery, however, I'm somewhat unimpressed with its cleaning ability compared to my old Nautilus CC Plus. The Nautilus picked up just about everything off the pool floor on its first pass without hesitation. On the other hand, the Discovery seems to...

    Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus Belt Came off - New!

    This would happen on my CC Plus on occasion and is a total mystery to me. I replaced the belts and was good for about a month, then it did it again. When it does this, it seems to stretch the belt ever so slightly, so it may reoccur with more frequency. Every time it does this, it damages the...
