    Pool lighting options

    I wouldn't do it. I'm sure the adhesive would damage the liner. Replacement liners are expensive. I've updated my experience with these lights... Post in thread 'Solar pool light' Solar pool light

    Wireless thermometer

    I was able to find this on Amazon. It's called YoLink. Google it and you'll get the information you need... there's lot of it. I keep the sensor in a ziplock bag (not sure if I need too as it's weatherproof) and keep it under my skimmer lid. The probe is waterproof and the sensor is long...

    Solar pool light

    Update on my Leduc Sun Solar Pool Lights: After 3 seasons both lights suffered failures. Water penetration under the epoxy coating on the solar panel part of the light caused bubbling and cracking, and now not able to charge. I did notice some small bubbles under the coating with one of my...

    TFPC Recommended level vs manufacturer level

    I'm also located in Canada - 2hrs west of Ottawa. Reagents when stored properly last a while and I've been able to use my TF-Pro Salt kit for 3 seasons. Just purchased a refill kit during the 20% off sale last month. It's a bit pricey but so is a pool. I've yet to battle any water chemistry...

    Hey to all!

    This happened to me and I found replacement "split nuts' that fit my Hayward T-Cell at my local pool store. Took 2 minutes to install and the cost for the part was $6. I bought a few extras to throw in my toolbox if the other one goes.

    Heat Pump Exterior Cleaning

    I noticed while tinkering around my equipment pad that the fins on my heat pump were quite dirty. Reading up on the manual and it mentioned cleaning with a soft brush and water, but I was worried about bending the fins so I opted to use a garden hose on low pressure. Looks like new and...
