I searched the forums for a solution but the other posts didn't have any real resolution. Background: Over the winter a brick fell into the pool and tore a huge hole in the liner and drained the pool down to a foot remaining. As a result of the steel supports that attached to the wall...

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin Where is this list you are referring to? Before I buy anything else it would be great to know what works and doesn't. Thanks.

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin I used a product by Leslie's Pool Supply called "Ultra Bright". It seemed to do the job, the kids played in the pool today for the first time! [attachment=0:21ji30mc]IMG_2459.JPG[/attachment:21ji30mc]

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin I found the TroubleFreePool.com recommended test kit on tftestkits.net and just ordered the Taylor K-2006. I'm hoping this works better. In the meantime I've been manually vacuuming the crude on the bottom using the 'waste'...

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin I'm using AquaCheck Select test strips from Leslie's Pool Supply. I found out that the old strips don't work right, fresh strips are important. :) Here is the test result from this morning...

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin I switched back to my 300# sand filter after the laborious chore of cleaning the DE filter so frequently. Today I just vacuumed the remaining crude on the bottom straight out on the waste setting, then put the automatic pool cleaner...

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin Good suggestion, I do have that setting and will give it a try.

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin I followed this process to kill off the algae -> turning-your-green-swamp-back-into-a-sparkling-oasis-t4147.html It worked really well, it took A LOT of chlorine (9 gallons of bleach and lots and lots of chlorine granules) to get FC...

Re: Pump pressure goes up very quickly even after backwashin I have been fighting the algae for 7-8 days now, I finally got the water cleared up and can see the bottom. There is a brownish/greenish hazy cloudy stuff right on the bottom that I've been trying to get vacuumed up but as soon as...

That makes a lot of sense because there is a pipe going to a booster pump, but the booster pump doesn't look like it works, it's not fully hooked up and only the pipe going into the ground is connected to the booster pump the other end of the booster pump has a fitting blocking it off - all the...

I'm a new owner of an in-ground pool and have only basic experience with an above ground pool, and I have an issue with my in-ground pool pump pressure. While running, the pressure will be about 20PSI but when I turn the pump off for 2-3 seconds and back on the pressure drops to about 10PSI...

I'm new to in-ground pool ownership, I'm not sure what this connection is used for. It appears to be sealed off with some rubber membrane material. I took off the cover ring but the rubber membrane material appears to be sealed and doesn't come off. Any idea what this is supposed to be used...
