    Diagnosing pool stains/discoloration

    I forgot to include that scrubbing was unsucessful in removing or changing the stains in any way.

    Diagnosing pool stains/discoloration

    Hello Everyone, I've been noticing what look like greyish discoloration on the top edges of my pool start to appear quickly over the last couple of months. Started in one area and has now started to pop up around many parts of the pool, some on the bottom as well now. I've been battling high...

    Is this a side wall suction port or something else?

    Thank you for the response. That's pretty much what I've come to as well. Unfortunately all the valves I can find are accounted for. Oh well lol.

    Is this a side wall suction port or something else?

    Hi TFP Community, I am wondering if anyone may know what this capped hole is on the side of my pool. I thought maybe it was a side wall suction port for a suction cleaner, but when I uncapped it I feel no suction on it. I tested each one of my intake/drain lines separately with the pump on...

    Clogged Spa jets, and any idea what this knob does?

    that makes sense. just checked outside and see an old looking box with some sort of heater timer thats no longer in use. the one return turned on by that t-joint could be the old heat line maybe? oh well!

    Haha yea good call! I'll see what I can do and just go from there. At least I have 2 working jets lol. 1 from the main and 1 with good pressure if i turn that grey switch lol. Thanks again for all your insight. Be well!

    Clogged Spa jets, and any idea what this knob does?

    Oh geeze! I forgot about that. Your post just rang a bell. I'm still going to try and test the return line from that 2nd pump. But, when we first got the place we had someone come to a leak detection (nothing found thankfully), but he did mention that in the spa drain something about one of...

    Clogged Spa jets, and any idea what this knob does?

    I appreciate the detailed responses. Any information is very very helpful. A couple days ago I went through and tested out all of the intakes/drains. I was able to locate and label the pipe for the main, skimmer, and spa drains. All 3 intakes go to the main pump. None of them go to that 2nd...

    Clogged Spa jets, and any idea what this knob does?

    Ah I see thank you so much! Definitely worth a shot. My only other question with this until i try it out is with the spa jets being separated. There are 6 total in the spa. 1 is always on with the main (based on another users response that is the one controlled by the red knob right?) When i...

    Clogged Spa jets, and any idea what this knob does?

    There is a 2nd pump by our main pump. During the home inspection our inspector said it was for the spa jets. It turns on by switch on the patio. I figured he was right, but looking at it more i thought maybe it was just old and not hooked up to anything. It has no lid on the basket area and...

    first time pool owner and forum user here. I turned the valve to open the spa jets for the first time today since owning the pool and only 1 of the 5 had water coming out of it. The 6th return in the spa is connected to the main return. There is also no air coming from the 1 working spa...
