    AGP Install - Bottom higher than wall track?

    I am in the process of switching out from a 48 Inch to 54 inch pool. It actually was a mistake that I bought the 54 inch walls, but it was a closeout last year so I'm stuck with it. The tricky part with this pool is that sits level with a 48 inch deck, so I need to dig down to make the 54inch...

    Hot Tub Trips GFCI instantly

    I bought a used hot tub off of craigslist and am setting it up to make sure everything works. I connected the wiring from my old hot tub, however, as soon as I flip the GFCI, it trips. I disconnected the heater and it doesn't trip. I did the ohm testing and it is 11.5 when I test the leads...

    Gym Pads for AGP Base

    I am going to need to replace the liner in my pool this year and was thinking of trying a different base than just sand. It is going to be difficult to haul into my backyard and and get in the pool as the entire pool is surrounded by a deck. I've see that you can use the pink foam and am kind...

    Hayward H1001 won't ignite

    I have a Hayward H150 76,000 BTU heater that I use for my above ground pool. When I hooked it up for this season, the pilot light won't ignite. I can here clicking and the fan is spinning, but no flame (or heat) is being generated. Does this mean that there is an issue with the gas line not...

    Heater Issue

    I am rejuvenating a hot tub that has been sitting drained for over a year. I got everything set-up and running, but the water was heating very slowly. The hot tub is running on a 220V wiring, and the temp went from 45 to 80 degrees in 24 hours. I then drained the tub, swapped out the heating...

    Crack in Air Injection line

    We recently moved our hot tub and during the move, we somehow cracked off the hose that leads from the air induction dial down into the spa plumbing. My question is, would there be any harm in running the hot tub with this hose not connected to the dial? Logically, I'm thinking that with this...

    High Combined Chlorine

    I opened my pool last Saturday and the water was in pretty good shape upon opening. I've been running the filter 24/7 for a week now and it seems to be slowly improving, but it's still cloudy. I just got back from the pool store and here are my numbers: FC: 4.0 CC: 4.1 TC: 8.1 PH: 7.3 CH: 150...

    Buoyancy in SW Pools

    I recently installed a SWG on my 21' Above Ground Pool. Since I just opened the pool a few days ago, the water is still cloudy and I can't see the bottom of the pool. Additionally, I also have a Polaris 65 automatic cleaner that I usually just leave hooked up to the return so it is always...

    Oversized Pump for 21' Above Ground pool

    When I backwash my pool, I usually get sand spitting out of the return for the first few seconds that I turn the pump back to filter mode. I've checked all the pipes in the filter and they all seem to be fine, no cracks or anything. So after doing some research, I think that I probably have a...

    Opening Pool and Adding SWG

    I plan to open my 21 ft. above ground pool this weekend and also install a SWG at the same time. My question is, should I get the pool balanced and clear first and then add salt or can I add salt to a green pool? My gut tells me to wait until I have it balanced and ready to swim, but I'd also...
