    Resale value on booster pump and PS vac?

    I think I am going to pull the trigger on a Dolphin Active 30. Trying to offset the cost as best I can by selling my Polaris TR35P cleaner and Polaris PB4-60 booster pump. Both are just over a year old and have no issues. What do u think is a fair asking price for each. They were $600 and...

    Stains popping up on plaster

    Hey guys. Pool is one year old and I'm starting to get a few stains popping up. I feel like every week I find a new one. Not sure what is going on. I dumped a whole bottle of Jack's Magenta in it 2 weeks ago but nothing happened. Most of the spots are a penny or smaller. One is prob a tad...

    Alternate use for pressure side port?

    Hey all. I have a new pool (1 year old) that came with a pressure side port and cleaner. I have been less than impressed with the performance of it and find myself manually vacuuming most of the time. I was looking hard at the Warrior SI (I want the ability to spot clean with my phone) but as...

    SWG not working after open

    Calcium Scale or Crystals?

    I have a new plaster pool that was finished almost exactly a year ago. So this is the first time opening after being covered for the winter. I had a local shop close my pool on October 7th and just took the cover off yesterday. Upon opening, I found what looks like crystals on the side walls...

    Poor plaster job?

    We had our pool built in the spring and it was finally completed in early June. When I got home from work I was excited to see the new plaster finish but was a bit disappointed in how inconsistent it was. There are dark spots, streaks, drips, etc. In one spot the finish is so course that my...

    Custom non-safety cover?

    Hey all. First season with our new pool and a bit behind on my search for a cover. We probably only have another 3 weeks or so before our trees start littering the ground. I started the process of obtaining estimates about a month ago and it dragged out a bit. I got an estimate for the...
