That is super helpful to know. I 'soft opened' my pool yesterday and put in a punch of liquid chlorine, letting the pump circulate it because it's already green. If i don't take the cover off it won't get clear? I was planning on doing it in a week when i had an extra set of hands since the...

Hi all, With the help of TFP i have finally gotten the courage after 3 seasons to close my own pool. I have done all other maintenance on the pool with the help of this site required to close it other than removing the return eyeballs and blowing out the lines. Today my pool temp is 62F and...

Hi everyone, We bought a home in the northeast in 2019 that had a 36k gallon in-ground salt water pool with a heat pump. Since then, i've had a pool company open and close it each year. I do the balancing with a Taylor salt kit. I enjoy doing it. In the last few years i have replaced the four...

Hi all, My pool company opened my pool this year and did everything but hook up my SWG and turn the pump on. Not their fault, we just moved a bunch of stuff out of my garage and i could not find the salt cell. I finally found it (after they left of course). All i had to do was screw in the salt...

Hi all, I live in the northeast and moved into a home with a salt water pool two years ago. This year, i upgraded the control system to a hayward Omnilogic. It's much easier to use than the previous system. Part of the installation required an electrician, and he wired it so that my outdoor...

Hi experts, i need some help. I had my OmniLogic system professionally intstalled a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, they forgot to add the Hayward wifi module (HLWLAN) with my original quote and so it was not installed the day the rest of the system was. They just dropped it off. I'm a...

Hi all, Opened my pool to a low water level and once the water became clear, there were two quarter sized holes in the liner about a foot apart from each other. Pool guy was already here installing a new automation system, and was able to patch them with this stuff...

Hello everyone, i would like to clean my cartridge filter. I can't find any identifying information/model number on it as the tag that i think would have this info is partially torn off. I just moved into this house, and i don't know if/when the cartridges were last cleaned. The nut looks pretty...

They have non-existent customer service. I received the Sense last month. Out of the box, it was defective. The circular part that holds the batteries would not clip into the larger round ring it's supposed to sit in. I never put it in my skimmer box because of this. Contacting them for support...

hi all! This is my 2nd season with this pool. Last year i bumbled my way through and found TFpool way too late in the season, and i have a specific question about why my FC disappeared in the last two days. Opened May 8th, 36k gallon in-ground pool with SWG, heater, and new VS pump, taylor...

Moved into a home with a spa. I'd like to drain and scrub it. what's the best way to scrub? I have a submersible pump to help me drain it, but not sure what to use once it is empty. It's a ~450 gallon Caldera Aspire tub from like 10 years ago. The old owners used bromine to sanitize it, if that...
